If you don't normally watch these, definitely check out the beginning of this one.

I am ALL IN for that type of negativity.

[KawadaSmile]

Oh God, it's super fucking uncomfortable lolololol

An all-timer, really

[Timbo Slice]

The EVP stuff reads like how to set up more stuff with Page/Omega down the line. Omega has been shooty with Ospreay and that’s just a continuation of it. And then the first question using Colt’s shoot name almost screams setup. Punk knows exactly what he’s doing in both situations. 

[Jmare007]

Fucking Punk, lol.

[C.S.]

Punk is dropping f-bombs, shooting on Colt, EVPs, and Hangman Page at the media scrum. This is CRAZY!

[Timbo Slice]

Dude setting up his next half dozen programs.

[KawadaSmile]

Or setting up the next release batch!

I just love it because it's the best side of Punk. A grouchy fuck who's not afraid to talk shit.

It somehow made MFJ more popular in Chicago than Punk (?)

That was kind of my thought when I said what I said before about not doing the MJF reveal at the end of the PPV. He was going to get a huge pop for it when it happened, and that (plus the dueling Mox chants during the match) made Punk seem a bit smaller after all of the over the top Chicago hometown hero stuff.

Or maybe, eventually, that will be the point.

Of course after hearing about Punk mouthing off at the presser, MJF already feels like old news. Holy shit.

LOL Hangman is fucked

Watching the presser and it' way funnier than just reading his quotes and yeah, work or shoot Tony has to make him work against all these people for the next year. The vitriol towards Hangman is hilariously uncalled for.

I love it. Tony nods along while he shits on the Bucks and Page.

[KawadaSmile]

Toni Storm also SHOOTIN', in this case alluding to Rosa being full of shit about her injury. This fucking company, man.

[Jimmy Redman]

Before it gets lost in the excitement I do want to say how unbelievably awesome the tag title match was. Like, I literally can't believe how great it was.

Like, I was up out of my seat yelling at the telly, "CALL THE AUDIBLE! PUT THEM OVER!" great.

Like, I actually believed that Keith Lee was going to be pinned with a fucking rollup great.

It was probably the match I was least into before the show, and it sent me into orbit. Awesome shit. Total career performance from Bowens especially. They really have to run with the Acclaimed right now as much as they can.

They were so over that their loss killed the rest of the show until the main event.

[Timbo Slice]

People want to be backstage so much they’re surprised it’s being put out there like that. The dirt sheet promotion to end all dirt sheet promotions. Tony Khan breaking and rebuilding the wrestling news cycles in the span of a single evening. An incredible moment. 

[sek69]

Punk is gonna Punk, but I kinda get where he's coming from in the sense that this shit was like a decade ago and people still want to stir shit up about it. Like even if this is eventually all just worky-shooty stuff to build heat, it's obvious he's legit upset about it. 

[KawadaSmile]

Also worth noting: Dave asking about CM Punk's foot right after the dude is on a streak tearing EVPs and Hangman Page apart is hilarious. No one gives a fuck about that, old man!

[Timbo Slice]

Has to protect his sources now, doesn’t he?

Agree. Between this and the rampage match with Nese and Woods, Lee and Strickland are starting to look like they might be the best tag champs in a year.

[C.S.]

Now Jericho is lecturing the AEW roster about using profanity like they're wayward children. 

[Jmare007]

Even Jericho with a little jab at whoever leaked the details of the backstage meeting this shit was way better than the PPV.

A lot of us in my friend groups feel like Swerve should be a main-eventer down the line.  He can even do the media crossover stuff that Cody did for them before!

That said, Stacy was right to mention Bowens.  He's improved markedly over the last year+, which they badly needed since Caster is middling at best in the ring.  Now they have a dynamic of mic guy + workhorse which i think can make them viable tag champs, especially with ol' Billy Ass apparently being the last missing piece for them.

[DR Ackermann]

Swerve has a lot of offense that's awkward and unnecessarily intricate and looks dumb but he kept that to a minimum tonight. If he can streamline that a bit and stick with the vicious stuff he was doing tonight that will go along way. He and Keith were great in the heel role tonight.

So man the fuck up and say, "No comment." This is full-on Streisand Effect and incredibly selfish on his part. Like, I'm sensing there's going to be some major "either he goes or I go" directives coming out of this.
