I really want to know what Punk meant by saying The Bucks and Hangman have done nothing in this business.
Like, is he talking about just going to WWE? Because if we’re talking about money made in an indy run, arguably the Bucks did way more shit than he did

The thought of Punk kicking anyone’s ass legitimately is hilarious. Punk entering the fight:
Punk leaving the fight two seconds later |

narcissist noun nar·cis·sist | \ ˈnär-sə-sist \ plural narcissists Definition of narcissist : an individual showing symptoms of or affected by narcissism: such as a: an extremely self-centered person who has an exaggerated sense of self-importance Not everyone you dislike is a narcissist. 🙄 No, but Punk is. |

And I mean that is worthy of discussion at some point. Cody sort of dodges the question about him and the EVPs having problems at the end so maybe they could switch way they do things but way Punk went about it is all wrong This is where I'm at with the whole thing. I think a lot of people are using this situation to reinforce their beliefs about Punk here, but there's *something* to this shit with the EVPs. The more I think about it, the more I think Punk probably really f***ed up handling it how he did in public, but there's a piece of the puzzle we don't have here, and I think it has to do with EVP behavior. He was way out of pocket and should have handled it a lot better. The EVPs could be having some problems and it’s getting swiped under the rug due to Cody leaving and Punk losing his damn mind but it could also be a big bunch of nothing. The messenger is all the way wrong but there could be bits and pieces of the message to dissect but until something really concrete comes out about them this will not really be talked about |

I stand by it taking a lot of balls to think you could just fight in the UFC, but it wasn't pretty. |

So apparently when it comes to going after the EVPs (or more specifically the Bucks) the feeling in the locker room is Punk was wrong for how he aired everything out last night in the open however many in the locker room do feel that the Bucks were in the wrong for the initial heat. Also Kenny and Punk don't directly have heat but Kenny is also mad with how things were handled And I mean that is worthy of discussion at some point. Cody sort of dodges the question about him and the EVPs having problems at the end so maybe they could switch way they do things but way Punk went about it is all wrong This is paraphrasing a bit but Meltz but he did make it sound like despite the other drama that's been going on, the feeling is that the Bucks/Hangman/Punk stuff is basically confided to just them. Bucks have their supporters, Punk has his, but the locker room is content to stay out of it |

Lord. This. A million times over. And young-fade would seethe against me but it applied with Cena too. Being a leader, being in a position of power..a lot of times it’s what you don’t say or do. It’s about keeping your shit together. Kind of what Jericho inferred last night - “stay the course”. Or what Hangman said only a few months ago: “I don’t think you understand what it means to be a Champion. After all these years, I don’t think you get it. Because it’s not just what happens in this ring, it’s what happens when that red light turns off. What happens when you go through that curtain..those small quiet moments when you think no one’s watching. That’s what makes a Champion”. |

The trend with AEW is that things start as a shoot, and then they cleverly make it into a work.
MJF and the dud explosion during the barbed wire match, bring examples.

Even if any complaint Punk made is valid, he went about it in such a way as to make every leak about him look completely justified.
This man is brilliant at presenting himself to an audience to get intended reactions, which makes it all the more galling that this is so clownshoes. He has literally the skillset to win a public war of words, but he is incompetent at it.

Even if Tony forces his hand. |

The stuff he said shout Colt was not a work.
How do I know? Because that match ain’t happening unless cooler heads prevail and they can run with this.

Willing to bet this is an elaborate work in effort to gain momentum and get the internet talking. Punk is going heel and its going to be a whole company vs Punk type of thing.
