When showing WWE to your lover for the first time, you absolutely must start with the CM Punk saga. This was as real (and interesting) as wrestling has arguably ever been. Start by showing bae the infamous CM Punk 'pipe bomb' on Raw, which has become one of the most-viewed promos in the last 10 years. Explain that Punk had grown frustrated with his position within the company (for real) and he was given the opportunity to air his grievances by way of an open microphone. As Punk gradually becomes aggravated and lays a verbal beating on everyone from the fans to Vince McMahon, feel free to remind bae that what they are viewing is all coming from a very real place and his contract is genuinely about to expire. The foundations are set for the match with John Cena and the video package at the beginning of the match will fill in the gaps. The match doesn't even really matter at this point until it gets to the pointy end. As CM punk pins Cena to win the WWE Championship, you'll get a good opportunity to introduce your loved one to the Money in the Bank concept as Vince McMahon urgently calls for Alberto Del Rio to cash in. After Punk escapes through the crowd and the show fades to black, explain that Punk genuinely signed a new contract midway through the event. Chances are they will be so emotionally invested in WWE by this point that it won't even matter what you follow the match up with.
Overly-opinionated Australian WWE smark who is definitely not #booty. Slowly angering the IWC one article at a time. We will probably strongly dislike each other - let's be friends! @MattKMarsden
