You have to feel for the poor fans who take no part in the IWC and tuned in tonight now wondering what the hell happened and why the world and trios titles are vacant.

Wow. That could not make me wanna watch that tournament any less. I'm already burned out on Jericho & Moxley as it is, I still find Hangman Page to be a bland champion, and none of the other competitors have a decent chance of winning the title (Bryan, maybe, but then again, it means Bryan/Jericho II beforehand, so meh). Oh, well.

And they were booing Khan before he announced that. That tells me that a lot of fans are done with Punk. And of course there's some dude on Twitter trying to get #IStandWithPunk going. So? I agree with what Punk said too.

Probably best for CM Punk if he just decides to call it a day.
He got that big return in his home town that showed fans still cared about him.
He confirmed to himself that, regardless of everything, he still loves *wrestling*.
He also confirmed that backstage political bull**** is just not something that’ll ever go away or that he’ll ever be able to just deal with in a healthy way. It brings out the worst in him.
But he also got to main event a company’s biggest show of the year and win their world title (and now he’ll probably never lose it).
And he left, again, in a firestorm of controversy. Seems pretty fitting for the dude.

That backstage segment with Brit / Hayter from Sunday. I think it would’ve been hilarious had she been walking backstage past the melee between Punk / Steel and the Elite and didn’t even give it a look, then when it was sent back to the live arena the announcemers don’t even mention it either.

If I was Tony Khan, I’d use all that money Jim Crockett didn’t have to pay Punk to stay at home and not come back. Used to be a big fan but it feels better without him immediately.

Oh, well. I think worst of all it's just leading to another Moxley title win since they planted the seeds of him and MJF feuding. I think Danielson should win it and hold it for a bit, but even if it's transitioning to MJF, he'd still be the better option, IMO.

It had crossed my mind earlier that filling the vacate title would involve Mox, Jericho, Danielson, and Page.
Since it’s AEW of course they have to shoehorn Sammy and Darby in there for no reason.

Page 775. Read Ace Steel's stream of consciousness transcript from when he'd just fled the cops and was sitting in national park ground eating ham made out of Ryan Nemeth
