The promos (including the promo that started the whole train rolling), the excellent matches against Cena at MITB and SummerSlam, and recapturing the title against Del Rio.

Punk was on Colt Cabana's podcast a few weeks ago and said that his 3-disc DVD set has been greenlit by WWE. The best part? He has full creative control over the content.

Punk has been tweeting about working on his DVD set recently, he was coming up with jokey titles for it over the weekend.

Now if they cut a deal with ROH... |
