Just Dave Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 I think they’re gonna do something silly. Like the young bucks doing something in character, or having the whole screen blurred out or something. It would pop me, but I’m to the point where it’s AEW or nothing as far as regular wrestling consumption goes, so I’m probably not the target audience… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter pathetic nonsense. They could bring in Jamie Dundee to play Phil, based on his previous Springer appearances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they are doing this in the face of Punk's buddies FTR. TLDR; The Bucks fired FTR's friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technico Support Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) I've been down on AEW a little lately (too many meaningless matches on TV feels like I'm wasting time watching) but seriously, fuck it. If Punk wants to talk for two hours about what a mature, standup guy he is, while Khan has the receipts that say otherwise, then air it.

Matt D Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 My connection (as a viewer) with Punk in AEW was entirely transactional. While he was in AEW, he could push back against the 25%-33% of the product that I don't have a lot of use for by 1) taking up TV time with matches that I do enjoy, 2) pushing the overall aesthetics/style more in that direction in general, and 3) championing wrestlers who work along those lines and be a counterbalance to other voices that champion other wrestlers. While yes, there were certain philosophical agreements that came from that, overall, that wasn't actually the point. It wasn't about being right in some sort of moral argument with wrestlers or other fans, it was about enjoying the product as much as possible. Now that he's gone, I've got very little use for him except for that maybe he'll push the WWE/NXT in directions that I'm happier with over time. Right now, I don't want to be happy with WWE because the company more or less makes me sick, so I'm totally fine with him going away except for if people keep asking him about Vince in interviews; that would be ok. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 This is the kind of stunt that has the potential to backfire so bad it will go down in the annals of wrestle crap history. So I'm tuning in. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaedmc Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 That's why I'm so intrigued. If it's fake it could be a disastrous bait and switch that also embarrasses a couple of newz guys claiming to have the scoop. If it's real... then it's real and I'm assuming it has some information that contradicts what was said in the Helwani interview. Otherwise, why show it? If I had to guess it would be the assertion that Punk didn't do anything to make Tony Khan feel personally threatened. I hate that I keep getting sucked into this particular drama, but it is one of the strangest series of events to happen in wrestling in a long time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the Hardy’s reunion was a big flop for a host of reasons, but I maintain that Matt was a good midcard heel with the HFO. Very underrated part of the show during that era. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
