strobogo Posted April 25, 2023 Report Share Posted April 25, 2023 It's only a story because it's Punk. The talent pool for pro wrestlers on that level is pretty small and they all know each other. AEW/NJ talent pops up backstage at WWE shows when they're in the same area, plenty of WWE people have been backstage and doing dinners with AEW talent. The real sus part is that he was visiting "friends". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you can say he was visiting friends but it felt like poking the hornet's nest with a stick, the fuck you think was gonna happen? That's what makes this thing entertaining to follow, at least to me. When Starks hangs out backstage with Cody it's covered but never treated as a big deal, but with all the fuckery Punk brings and the current situation he's in with AEW, it's bound to create overblown controversy and I'm here for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovert Posted April 25, 2023 Report Share Posted April 25, 2023 It is more than likely he has done some kind of work on himself. Either via his wife's need and interest in therapy and/or AEW HR mandating some kind of anger management type training. Obviously there's Wrestling politics motivations PR wise and selling yourself to AEW management, the locker room and the fans you are the reasonable one and capable of self reflection.

Miz, of all fucking people, being one of the few friends Punk has in WWE, and in the industry as a whole, is fucking hilarious. But hey, I guess real recognizes real.

He's come to realize that his remark during the MJF feud was a step too far, and a bold faced lie! Punk realized Max ain't on Miz's level and Mike Mizanin was a better champ than MJF is currently. Of course Miz, being the noble gentleman, accepted Punk's apologies. Wow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strobogo Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 Has Starks even had a match on TV since beating Jericho again? Will Adam Cole be the first to not suffer from the clout vampire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoS Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 He had a non-match with Juice Robinson that was a setup for Jay White's debut. He has a tag match on tonight's Rampage. Seems like he is being set up for White's first victory, which sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KawadaSmile Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 At this point I am willing to believe Jericho has had the most screentime out of every single active AEW roster member. He just does not take any weeks off, essentially. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoS Posted April 28, 2023 Report Share Posted April 28, 2023 No way Punk allows Jericho to make the feud all about Jericho though. He has been around too long, is way too savvy, and for better or for worse, knows how to make things about himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the Codyverse was wacky and unpredictable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted April 30, 2023 Report Share Posted April 30, 2023 If the first few month of Collision are centered around another JAS feud vs the hot star, it's an instant skip for me. Maybe after All In, and if Punk stays healthy, I could check it, considering a really like FTR and Rick Starks will probably go with the Saturday crew.

Flyin' Brian Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 Rumors say there will be another return/debut happening on the first episode of Collision. Return of Thunder Rosa? Mercedes Mone? Trinity Fatu? For some reason I'm leaning towards the women's roster for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted May 2, 2023 Report Share Posted May 2, 2023 From what I've been gathering, All In's pre sale is gonna take a while (they have more than 1 date for them), and it's gonna be a huge success. Seems the 40k "goal" I and many others had is gonna be reached pretty damn fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meltz has talked about how its mostly early buyers for AEW, so my gut is 60K is plausible but 70K might be out of reach (unless the early demand activates heavy scalper activity).

MoS Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 WCW's highest was around 41k for the Hogan-Goldberg match (that btw got sold beforehead, before the pronouncements cluld take shsape, the careers of Ken Shamrock, alongside both Vince AND Hogan suffered in terms of and most tickets were sold), right?
