Sometimes you listen to CM Punk and wonder if he was perhaps a little unreasonable; other times, you think, "Yeah - maybe he has a point".

When it comes to the decision to have him lose his match with Triple H at Night of Champions 2011 - slap-bang in the middle of his pipe-bomb-aided push to super-stardom - you lean towards the latter.

It didn't completely derail Punk's momentum, to be fair - the Straight Edge Superstar began his 434-day title reign not two months later with victory over Alberto Del Rio at Survivor Series, after all - but it would have been more fitting for him to get one over on the COO en route.

Instead, The Game pinned him clean - after brushing off an interfering Kevin Nash himself.
