Jmare007 Posted June 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Punk's announcement coming from a non-blinking Tony Khan announcement and nothing else happening was kinda underwhelming. Punk got a more positive reaction than I expected, there were boos but the cheers were way bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted June 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 I can see no one else is watching but I'll end the multi posts by saying Callis' heat is something that's not easy to get, Tony better take full advantage of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapolin (as he's known here) is the GOAT. Might like it even more than Chavo. Swerve having actual good wrestlers beside him was necessary. The Embassy looks great, they needed someone with that charisma to get them over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Also, pairing Cole, who came back from a potential career ending injury, with known clout vampire Jericho for his first program was a death sentence. That mixed tag should end the fucking feud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEdger Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 I can only imagine that at some point they're gonna try to set up an MJF vs Adam Cole title program for All Out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 So they mentioned Kenny left the country and then during Don's promo the announcers mentioned he's not in Canada, which to me seemed like they were planting a seed that Kenny's bringing in Ibushi.

RingoPlaysDrums Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Don Callis is great. Crazy heat! The sit-down interview with JR that they put on their YouTube was brilliant and it's ridiculous that they only ever showed 30 seconds of it on the Double or Nothing Buy-In. Kenny bringing in Ibushi would be brilliant. There's probably a better chance that it's going to be Okada, which whilst not quite as cool, would still be cool.

sek69 Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Who would have thought the biggest heat getters in 2023 are Don Callis and Dominik? Crazy times. It's also no coincidence that they are both irredeemable shitbag heels in a time where so many heels try to be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subatomic_elbow Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 I'm really curious what sort of Anti-Elite unit Callis is building. Could be fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Don's promo it seemed to me Okada will be the first to show up. Would be cool if both him and Ibushi end up in the FD card. Kenny did say in his off camera promo that he had a "couple" of friends outside the company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoS Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 I don't even like Don Callis but the heat he got was ridiculous. Now I want him to recruit Punk and let both of them go hunt the Elite together to nuclear levels of heat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Dynamite got a biiiiiiig bump in the ratings. The card was nice, the divisions were shaken up, CM Punk is approaching. Let's go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 The reaction the Punk announcement got seemed to indicate to me that (other than Chicago) the best thing for them to do is make him the top heel immediately.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dav'oh Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 Well, he didn't look like a star. He looked like a joke - apt, I know, because he was honoring a spoof character from 50 years ago. Don't have to be a "boomer" to think he looked jobber-ific. And if you didn't know who he was "honouring", he just looked stupid, to boot. And even when one found out who he was meant to be...he still looked stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmare007 Posted June 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 lmao, putting any real thought on how Bandido looked for someone that doesn't know Chespirito is like the concern trolling people made when Kenny "gave too much offense" to Alan Angels.

No, LMAO. How is "this cunt looks stupid, regardless of who he's meant to be", concern trolling? I mean, I'm not concerned and I'm not trolling. @The Thread Killer First issue's coverstory: "Why Roman Reigns MUST Dress As Inspector Clouseau at Summerslam!"
