Poster for ''Great American Bash'' suggests CM Punk push well planned
On Tuesday, July 1, 2008 at 5:15 PM EST Based on a photo appearing on the DirecTV website for the upcoming WWE Great American Bash PPV on July 20, CM Punk is pictured along with Triple H, John Cena, Batista and Shawn Michaels. The photo of the poster can be seen at this link.
This would seem to indicate that WWE had plans of pushing Punk well before the 2008 WWE Draft with him capturing the World Heavyweight Title on last night's Raw. It sure isn't off base to be a little confused with Punk's push considering the reports that made the rounds backstage and how he had been portrayed on TV since WrestleMania 24, but the line "plans are always subject to change" really applies here.
