I was in my first 5K this weekend at Elote's Lucha 5K and 1-mile fun run. A few quick things about this 5K. The majority of the "Luchadors" ran in the 1 Mile Fun Run. When the group started to form for the 5K, I quickly realized my friend and I were 2 of about 15 people in a group of over 250 wearing masks. Also, this was not just a straight 5K, as there were obstacles as well. At different check points throughout there were either people throwing dodge balls at you, throwing water balloons at you, a slip and slide, a Harlem Shake section (which I stopped and partook in), and finally a group of Roller Derby Girls hitting you with foam noodles. But through all of this in my first 5K, I finished 7th overall, 1st in my age group (20-29), and was the first luchador to cross the finish line, with a time of 22:32 seconds.

I could honestly see Punk going over in this one. He lost two PPVs in a row to the Rock, and lost to Cena on RAW. He needs momentum shifted back his way, and Taker is on the way out. What better way to put Punk over, and say he's the guy, than have Punk go over? I don't see this being a PPV, where all the good guys win. Have Punk beat Taker, and than have Cena beat the Rock. Crowd goes home happy.

This was by far the best match these two have had together. Like you said, their chemistry is unparallelled. This was like a Wrestle Mania main event caliber match on free TV.
*Cough* Money in the Bank *Cough* I know it's a matter of opinion, but to me the best match they've had was at Money in the Bank. You had no idea who was going to win, and that angle was red hot. This one, it was pretty much a forgone conclusion that we were going to be seeing Rock v. Cena II this year. I honestly put this one behind the match they had at Night of Champions as well. That being said, this is the best match on RAW since HBK v. Cena after WrestleMania 23.

What would you consider your favorite marvel team book? Trade waiting many marvel books now so tough for me to say but I still might say Wolvie and the X-Men.
All New X-Men is my favorite team book at the moment. New Avengers is great as well. Really looking forward to reading more Guardians of the Galaxy. Also picked up the .1 Guardians of the Galaxy book and liked it enough to at least give the title a try, not sure this just wasn't a #1 issue though
It wasn't a #1.

Just watched the Main-Event from RAW this week.
John Cena and CM Punk have tremendous chemistry. Every time these guys touch, it's something special. It's this generations Steve Austin v. The Rock.

I love that Remender's completely changing his writing style for Uncanny Avengers; Rick's really summoning his inner Claremont. It's interesting to see how this old-school style works in a modern setting, I'm enjoying it so far. I'm also looking forward to the art change.
Loving the writing style Remender is bringing to the book. It's so much different than anything else out of Marvel that I'm reading. I wasn't reading Uncanny Avengers originally, but so glad that I picked it up. What's sad, is I can't say it's my favorite Marvel team book. That's not a knock on the book, that's just a comment on the quality of work Marvel is putting out right now.

I have yet to read his Hawkeye, I really need to pick that up.
But I loved the first 19 issues of Iron Man, and his Thor: Ages of Thunder was one of the big highlights for me when I got back into comics.
