4. The Shield Attack CM Punk While Daniel Bryan Gets Wyatt-Napped
Hot off a nice tag team, handicap match last night against The Wyatt Family, CM Punk was brutally attacked by The Shield as he left the ring to pursue the Wyatt's, who were running off with an unconscious Daniel Bryan. As Punk left the ring and headed up the ramp he was speared by Roman Reigns, who came from off-camera and out of the crowd to lay Punk out on the walkway. So this begs the question: what's next? One would assume that this will briefly lead to a feud with The Shield for CM Punk, but there's a larger force at work here. Roman Reigns is in line for a singles push, and with Ambrose and Rollins still in the fold, this program with Punk should provide a nice out for Reigns in the end. Look for Punk to face the Shield in the following weeks, and in the end for Roman Reigns to turn babyface against his Shield partners as he helps CM Punk take them on, all possibly taking place at the TLC PPV.
