WWE Erases CM Punk Again, Remembering Detroit’s Joe Louis Arena

WWE.com is running a poll asking fans what their favorite WrestleMania match featuring The Undertaker was. The list features every Taker WrestleMania match from Jimmy Snuka to Shane McMahon with one noticeable exception. CM Punk didn’t make the cut. The Paul Heyman guy squared off against Undertaker at WrestleMania 29, and although you can vote for the match in the poll, CM Punk’s name is not listed.

It only goes to show that CM Punk and WWE’s relationship is still a very long ways to being amiable. But, as they say about WWE, you can never say never.

Tonight’s Raw in Detroit, Michigan will broadcast from the Joe Louis Arena for the last time. The historic arena is set to be demolished soon and will be replaced by the Little Caeser’s Arena near Ford Field. The Detroit Red Wings will soon call the Little Caeser’s Arena their home, so WWE is likely to follow for future events.

Michigan Live recently put up a really cool list which showcased some of the most memorial moments that occurred within the historic building. Matches from the Detroit landmark include a very young John Cena’s victory over Chris Jericho at Vengeance 2002 in his PPV debut, Kurt Angle’s PPV debut in 1999, and the time Stone Cold drove a Red Wings zamboni to the ring.

It’s a great read and can be found here.
