I will say this is all on the notion that they may very well push it back to Full Gear and if they do I think it'd be fine I don't think there is any indication it won't still happen at All Out aside from the fact that because Hangman lost the 5 vs 5 that means they're gonna wait a little longer. Aside from Meltzer and Fightful's vague speculation on the subject we really have no clue what's happening. For all we know this week the storyline picks right back up again on Homecoming. We're basically just gonna get ourselves worked up until we actually know the path due to the curveball in the road. Meltzer literally wrote that Hangman is not getting the title match at All Out. Plans would have to change again unless he’s been fed false information. I just don't see a feasible outcome where it isn't Hangman right now. No one else is really gonna step into All Out for that title match as it stands right now. So I guess we need to see what road they're taking.

So I guess we need to see what road they're taking. That I agree with. It’s a big misstep in my opinion if they don’t go with Page at All Out. There’s one buy they’re losing if they change course on that (unless it’s Omega-Danielson instead, although I would much prefer they finish the story arc with Page first).

There’s one buy they’re losing if they change course on that (unless it’s Omega-Danielson instead, although I would much prefer they finish the story arc with Page first). I don't see Omega facing Punk or Danielson. Because I don't see Omega losing at all since the whole story is him losing to Page. If Omega faces someone else it's a clear "He's winning and beating them" title match which is like... Christian or Eddie Kingston. I don't see how that's gonna work out when you've been heavily building towards Page even now. I get Punk and Bryan are coming in but Bryan seems to be booked for New York which is AFTER All Out. It looks like they're booking Punk vs Darby for a huge attraction match. Omega/Page should by all accounts be the main event of the show so... if he's not what would he be doing and why would it need to be changed to someone else? To me the report makes no sense so I want to see what the fallout is next week.

Don’t think the Chicago fans would reject Punk but I think those at home would be turned off from the switch.

Don’t think the Chicago fans would reject Punk but I think those at home would be turned off from the switch. I don't see it being Punk when he's presumably debuting two weeks out from the PPV. Darby issued the challenge for the best in the world. I think we get that conflict at First Dance.

Not to mention the optics of pushing a homegrown superstar out of the title picture to put in a WWE made guy like Punk, Danielson, or Christian. It just makes no sense.

Well Tony has been sene to listen a lot to online feedback,if people seem unhappy about those news,plan can indeed change I saw Omega, Page, Punk, Bryan, and Christian all trending today due to Meltzer's report and it all seemed to be in the direction of "Hangman and Omega need to face off at All Out". If something usually trends that big? The Higher Ups at AEW see it. Hell Vickie didn't even get a TON of negative feedback managing Andrade and they still changed it. I don't see them changing Page/Omega at All Out just because any alternative isn't gonna work as well.

Honestly if the reason Page lost is jsut because CM Punk.that feels like a classic WWE mistake booking. If CM Punk comes in to get a big money main event that shoves a rising guy on the regular roster down the card and kills his momentum, that'd be the funniest shit ever. Like people were making jokes this is how his WWE return would go a decade ago, and now it's actually happening. No one can be mad at that sheer level of dramatic irony.

Nothing is lining up for Punk to main event for the belt though. Like it's lining up for him to face Darby at All Out more than anything. I however do agree if for some reason Punk would be the world title challenger when he is only scheduled to debut on the 20th of August and the PPV is the 5th of September? That'd be a mistake... but I don't see it being the road they go down. Punk's gonna draw money to the PPV without it being a title match. He drew 13K tickets already just on the prospect of him showing up.

Little aside... after what happened on Smackdown tonight with the Roman/Balor contract signing? I feel way better about whatever happens with Hangman/Omega... cause it's not gonna be worse than that world title swerve lmfao

Then just book the match. That was a total throw under the bus for both Balor and Corbin for literally no reason. Making something needlessly more complicated and making everyone look more like shit in the process If there's one thing I can say AEW has not done and hopefully never does... it's a segment like that where talent gets railroaded and everyone has to act like they're on Mars to justify it... But in order for this topic to not get derailed or turn into something else I'll just leave it at that!

Oh yeah the segment was an odd way to go about booking it but the desired result is at least reached of Cena/Roman. I hope AEW does the right thing and does Page/Omega even if it had to be a convoluted way to get there.

The atmosphere on this board is rancid these days, used to check in on it everyday now it just feels like Reddit or some shit. Not everyone speaks for everyone else to be fair. Plenty of people denounced this post the second it happened. It was a step too far. I really hope it doesn't get like Reddit. I like to think the Board has been really civil and well spoken most of the time... but sometimes we get these situations where tensions run way higher than they should. I also don't think the user in question wanted to invite more fighting as I have talked to them plenty on here... but again... tensions ran really high with this topic in the initial 24 hours. It's thankfully died down since.
