Punk & Heyman Heart attack.

**TTZT** · 12-24-2012, 03:52 PM

I know this may be a little past the time to post this thread but I think the 'fake on-air heart attack' was a promo to do, just because it was something to prove that WWE can and will never go back to the attitude era. They teased a little attitude with that and majority of fans hated it and would never like to see that again. Personally i think this was a test from the board and creative to see how the fans reacted to it and the test worked.

just a promo, you are looking too much into it, wwe is known for making some bad taste segments, thats all

plus, it was a heel promo, it was designed for you not to like it

People hated it because it wasn't entertaining. It was disgusting and uncalled for. Jerry "The King" Lawler nearly died while Raw was on the air. Had it happened back in 1998 instead of 2012, people would've been just as repulsed.

It's called a heel promo. jerry was likely ok with it... jerry loves the wwe he knows that's how heels gets over.

They should do more stuff like that often. It got people talking, and it was controversial. I love controversy (so does Eric Bischoff)

I agree with you... When this still angers members of the iwc who know it's fake months later... you know the heel promo did it's job...

Yea WWE has been known to take it to far, (I felt using Eddie Guerrero's car to run over Undertaker was a little to far) but sometimes you have to push the envelope. I kind of wish another heel could have done that to give them heat. I mean an Alberto Del Rio, or even Cody Rhodes who need some heat. But CM Punk perfected it as well.

That's the thing... i you are pushing the envelope all the time... you are destined to go to far... or it wouldn't really be pushing the envelope.
