Sean Waltman: “That was f**king unbelievable. Glad I decided on a later flight in order to see that. Hats off to both guys and to WWE for doing it right. Now I can get on my flight a happy man. Thanks @CMPunk and @JohnCena . Thanks to Chicago for making that so electric. Best bldg in world.”
Jim Ross: “Really solid, compelling, old school wrestling match between @JohnCena & @CMPunk. Making me proud.”
“MITB delivered! Last match was excellent. Hope everyone who watched enjoyed it.”
When a PPV delivers, especially the main event, & then the show goes off the air w/ more questions than answers I’d say that’s a good nite.
From start to finish, MITB arguably was the best wrestling PPV of the year. Highly entertaining, great crowd & gutsy in ring work. Bravo.
Kevin Nash: “MITB better than any mma ppv I’ve watched. Punk continues to gain my respect and Jay is the F**KIN man,WWE at it’s best”
Mick Foley: “I don’t think I’ve ever been jealous of a wrestler’s character before. Money, yes, character, no. @cmpunk has changed that. Damn. Damn!”
Howard Finkel: “I’ve seen just about everything possible in my 36 yrs.in this industry, but nothing like I witnessed 2nite! I love this business so much!”
Zack Ryder: “Congrats to my first ever Broski of the Week @CMPunk!”
Seth Rollins: “We’re still a wrestling company and that was how professional wrestling is done.”
Joey Styles: “I can’t believe this. Our WWE Champion doesn’t work for WWE and John Cena is or will be fired. OMG! Holy Crap!”
