Not hating on the bucks but just offering discussion.

Haven’t seen the promo but this article reads like one of those dorky social media fanboy rants. Hopefully that’s not the usual standard of writing on PWinsider.

[Viking Hall]

What a load of bollocks.

"By Dave Scherer"

Yeah that says all I need to know about what this "article" will say.

"Why can’t they just let Punk be in their past and move on? Why is he still in their heads even though he’s long gone? Maybe it’s because he most probably got a lot of money to sign an NDA after he left and that bugs them. Maybe it’s because unlike them, he has gone to the big time and moved the needle significantly and they are jealous. Maybe it’s as simple as they are children who just can’t act like adults."

Was this article written by one of the trolls on Twitter? Lmao.

It also conveniently ignores that Punk cut a promo on Raw about fighting his coworkers.

It was written by Dave Scherer, so to answer your question: yes.

No, given who wrote the article, there is no need for a discussion.

Every time Dave opens his mouth:

I said in the main Bucks thread that there's no use in The Bucks heeling to the people who just legit actually hate them and a day later, there's a Dave Scherer article proving my point perfectly.

[Moppy]

Dave Scherer's twitter bio verbatim:

To all of the whining trolls who complain I don't allow replies, YOU are reason why I don't. I don't care morons have to say. I didn't ask you to ready my page.

Professional writer, ladies and gentlemen

This dork just made me want the Bucks to go harder on this gimmick.

The one thing I don't like very much is them doing it for the build to Sting's last match, but then again, it'd be weird if they came back as normal Bucks and then became this right after for no reason.

[Legion]

I dont necessarily disagree with some of his points, but the way he has written that doesnt help those points in any way, shape or form.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

This such a funny way to start a thread:

"Ay, these some bitch ass cornballs but I'm not trying to hate, just stirring up discussion"

[HMARK Center]

Request: when starting a thread for discussion, don't just post a link, offer some of your own thoughts, as well.

The notion that AEW is doing something wrong by trying to appeal to AEW fans is so bizarre to me. It's a niche product in a niche industry, the surest way for AEW to actually go out of business is to try and appeal to the mythical "casual fan" that doesn't even really exist in 2024. In this day and age of instant entertainment and on-demand streaming, no one who isn't already predisposed to watch wrestling is going to watch wrestling anyway. 

This Bucks angle is going to hit with AEW fans, is going to trigger the anti-AEW brigade on Twitter, and is going to keep people talking about the company. On the whole, that's a good thing. I don't think it particularly matters that people who are not AEW fans dislike what is going on in AEW.

I knew this would be from Dave Scherer before I even opened the link

He hates the bucks, AEW & Tony Khan with a passion.

[Kalmia]

Scherer is hating on the Bucks? Must be a day ending in Y.

I don't care about this "writer", but I want the Bucks to go as far into this gimmick as possible. They don't even have to make CM Punk references, just turn up the EVP stuff to 11. When Omega comes back, I would like to see him refuse to indulge them. They vote to strip Omega of his EVP status and replace him with Don Callis.

I usually hate evil GM stories, but I think it can work if it isn't dominating the entire show.

The more people hate The Bucks, the better they become
