This is a public service announcement to everyone here, and especially to those of you who are defending Punk with every last breath you have: You don't have the right to attack someone at work because they said something bad to you. Be a grown ass adult and ignore them. Just because someone makes a comment to you doesn't mean it's ok to engage in physical violence against them. Thank you for your time.

Again, the only reason we even know about the glass story is Punk leaked it to the dirt sheets to try and make himself look a good guy because he'd buried Hangman again in a promo to the crowd and realised it had gone down badly. That's the only reason we're aware it happened. People accusing Perry of bragging about using glass or trying to use it to boost his career need to remember that. CM punk 100% definitively started this by leaking it to the media. Should Perry have just ignored punk? Yeah he should have. But I can understand it if he was angry at Punk, not everybody can do what Hangman does and completely rise above punks pathetic pettiness. Where/How did we find out it was Punk that leaked this? I totally missed this.

This is all a work. It's clearly leading to a "Bobby Heenan tries to get into the first episode of RAW" storyline with Punk on Collision this Saturday.

I totally missed this. It was part of a report from "Punk's side" discussing his efforts to create a drama-free locker room for Collision in direct response to the backlash from his "peg warmer" comments about Hangman. We don't know that CM Punk, personally, was responsible for the leak, but it's 100% certain that it was someone from his camp.

Dax: "OK what about this. What if we just say nobody told you? Like you didn't get the text at all that you're suspended! They can't keep you away if you never got the text!" Punk: *nods approvingly*

I totally missed this. These reports are either coming from Nick Hausman (who has been Punk's mouthpiece ever since they bonded over not doing improv with Colt Cabana) or other reporters who have gone out of their way to say that what they're reporting is being sourced by "people close to Punk" or "Punk's camp." The follow-ups to the Perry story made it clear that the initial report was entirely from Punk and that other sources had a very interpretation of events that weren't as charitable to Punk

Punk gonna show up in Chicago and be like, "nobody told me I was suspended!" TK: "Ok understandable sir. Get ready for your main event match where you'll face MJF and unify the belts and the entire city of Chicago will hail you as King!! CM PUNK!! CM PUNK!! CM PUNK!!!" Punk: "Don't shout so loud." TK: "Sorry sir."

The f*** is even going on anymore lol Tony had some of that gooooooood Columbian and found his balls again so much so that he's gonna pull a Bischoff and fire Punk via fedex?
Doubtful, but I'd need oxygen from laughing so much if that's how this goes down.
He should have done it on his wedding anniversary

He'll find out Saturday when whoever isn't banned from Collision can say it to his face. Wait no better have him find out he's suspended because he shows up at Collision and a human wall of Daniels, Nemeth, and Matt Hardy are all locking arms to keep him from going through the door. Haaaaaaaaaands across Collision Haaaaaaaaaands across Full Gear...

TK is such a fan of Punk he doesn't have the balls to tell him he's suspended.
What a punk ass bitch.

I also wonder how much t-shirt sales are worth this dude going on a personal crusade to make it seem like AEW (the company that rolled out the red carpet for him and generally gives him everything he wants and lets him do whatever he wants) is the most toxic trashily run organization in wrestling history. Like sure he makes money but he's also doing damage to the company's rep at every corner unintentionally and intentionally.

The follow-ups to the Perry story made it clear that the initial report was entirely from Punk and that other sources had a very interpretation of events that weren't as charitable to Punk These pro-Punk stories always have like way too intimate a level of "Punk thinks that people are trying to look for excuses to get out of showing up to work the next week and it's one of AEW's biggest problems" or "CM Punk thought it would be best if he left to not cause problems and then he bought Nando's for people" and it's shit you don't see in like nay other newz reporting on anything. It's either CM Punk himself saying it and sharing those thoughts, or dude's got his locker room buddies gathered around him like he's Jesus giving a sermon and then sharing that wisdom with Sean Ross Sapp. There's no way this stuff isn't coming from Punk.

As somebody that was a Punk fan for a long time, it's definitely been disappointing to see some of his fanbase merge with the tennis racket guy's fanbase. I still don't think he lasts much beyond All Out, t-shirts or not. It seems like more and more folks are just comfortable calling him on his shit.

Gotta say I didn’t get “he didn’t know he was suspended” out of that. Just sounds like he was planned to be on the show but now they have to change plans.
EDIT: sounds like I read wrong lol

On paper, they are as diametrically opposed as two wrestling personalities could possibly be. I guess it's a case of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend," and he and Cornette both pretty much hate everyone who doesn't worship the ground they walk on.
