I can't say enough about how good the build to Punk/MJF has been with fantastic promos, but I think this one in particular stands out. No insult battles, no sneak attacks, just Punk showing how good he still is on the mic. The tie in to Piper getting his Valentine leading to the dog collar match was just great. MJF coming out and for once in his life not having something to say was amazing. Thoughts?

Shame to hear that he and AJ broke up on account of him not having a Valentine.

I actually thought it was a tablet at first and he was reading stuff from it, then he opened it and I realized as a box.
But yes, great promo and sold me unbelievably on a Dog Collar match between the two.

It was excellent. It was absolutely excellent. I didn't think I'd feel this way, but I'm kind of at the point where if I'm Tony, you gotta give Punk the belt for a bit. He's by far the best promo in the company, he's proving he can still go in-ring and he's arguably the company's top babyface.
I know that flies in the face of giving the younger dudes their due, but man, Punk is just on another level right now. Does he *need* the belt? Maybe not. But if it makes sense, I feel like the AEW World Title would benefit from it being on the top promo and most popular guy in the company.

I loved the call back to his Dog Collar match with Raven and the fact he lost that match

The "be my Valentine" line was so god damn perfect. In my head, MJF came out planning to say something but he just kept thinking - "shit that was good..."

It was somewhat of a throwaway for probably a lot of people, but those who got it, it was such a cool throwback reference. Like his pipebomb promo calling to Colt Cabana. |

"Okay, I've got this amazing rebuttal that's gonna absolutely slay Punk on the mic, and I..." /Punk says "won't you be my Valentine?" during the promo.../ "Aw, f***!" |

I really hope they can get Raven to talk on their countdown show for this.

That promo was outstanding. I also loved the reaction from MJF, just the look on his face and being left speechless when he realizes just what he has gotten himself into.

Garrett was mostly being funny with it, mostly because he runs a TNA podcast and watches TNA a lot for it (funnily enough, the era they were covering was about the time this feud ended and Mickie James headed to WWE not long after). |
