WWE 'Raw': CM Punk, LA Knight team up to face Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed
Aug. 12 (UPI) -- CM Punk and LA Knight teamed up to take on Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed in the main event of WWE Raw. Punk kicked off the show on Monday and discussed his ongoing issues with his rival, World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins. Punk said Rollins was trying his best to be Punk but that he was failing miserably. Punk then apologized to the audience for allowing Rollins to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase at SummerSlam and said he was more obsessed then ever with becoming champion once again. Punk promised to defeat Rollins in the future and break his legs in the process. The Voice of the Voiceless was then approached by LA Knight, who told Punk he didn't have an issue with him, but to stay out of his way when it came to Rollins. Rollins and his group, now known as The Vision, then arrived onto the scene. The Vision consists of Rollins, Breakker, Reed and manager Paul Heyman, who challenged Punk and Knight to a tag team match in the main event. Punk and Knight worked well as a team. Punk gained momentum as he nailed Breakker with a top rope elbow drop. As Punk got ready to deliver the Go to Sleep, Rollins rushed the ring and attacked his rival, ending the match in a disqualification. The Vision began to beat down Punk and Knight as Jey Uso arrived onto the scene with a chair to make the save. Uso cleared away The Vision, who were then greeted by Raw general manager Adam Pearce at the entrance ramp. Pearce, using his authority, said Rollins would have to defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Uso, Knight and Punk in a Fatal 4-Way match at Clash in Paris on Aug. 31 due to his antics. The announcement caused Punk and Knight to start brawling inside the ring as they saw each other as future opponents. The Vision took advantage of the brawl and proceeded to decimate Punk, Knight and Uso as Raw ended.

Indy's WWE Royal Rumble will be the greatest day of my life
Many parents talk about the fulfillment and joy they feel holding their child for the first time. The sense of relief and love that washes over, a feeling they never knew nor could expect. That sounds pretty good. But have those people ever seen CM Punk lay the Go to Sleep on Drew McIntyre in front of 65,000 delirious members of the WWE universe during the Royal Rumble in Lucas Oil Stadium? Though parenthood is beautiful and challenging, it is hardly unique. A lot of people have had kids, including, probably, your parents. Look how that turned out! The Royal Rumble in Indianapolis is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the greatest sports entertainers practice their craft at the highest level. People are going to jump off stuff, do body slams and probably throw someone through a table. Babies cannot and should not do that. Leave it to the pros, babies. Time to come clean: I've never experienced the joys or the sorrows of parenthood. I have a cat who throws up on the couch sometimes. It's not comparable. Briggs: WWE's Royal Rumble is scripted chaos at its best However, I have gotten married. I've achieved some degree of professional and personal success. I've seen friends overcome hardship, my wife learn to walk after a surgery (it was for bunions, but still) and my cat not throw up on the couch. I have been lucky to see both the natural splendor of the Rocky Mountains and the transcendental beauty of Notre Dame Cathedral. I have lived a full and very lucky life. That said. None of that will be able to touch the thrill of seeing John Cena run to the ring in a pair of ill-fitting jorts and doing the 'You Can't See Me' thing to Sami Zayn, probably. What if Rhea Ripley Rip Tides somebody like Dirty Dom into a big chicken nugget? What if new lucha superstar Penta (short for Pentagon Jr., honest to God) jumps off something super high and does a big flip? Can you imagine how exhilarating that will be? I can. And I have. In a few short days, I will be trembling with excitement inside of Lucas Oil Stadium. I will be transported by the buff men and women of WWE outside of myself, outside of the comparatively mundane existence that I've called life. My only question, my only fear, is what will life look like on Sunday morning? After the confetti has fallen, after the ring is packed up, after the lights turn off and the Rumble has Royaled? John Gallo lives on the Near Eastside with his wife and cat. He is on several nonprofit boards and spends his free time reading difficult novels.
