The only half decent arguement for keeping Punk in AEW is that he is a needle mover. But looking at his absolutely wretched face character, I can't imagine many people turning in to see that. Is the dude actually bringing in the numbers for Collision? Nope. Recent chatter is that it's underperforming compared to what WB wanted out of it.

Is the dude actually bringing in the numbers for Collision? as far as I can tell not really. It would probably do similar numbers without his goofy ass clogging it up every week.

700!
Hot damn.
I do wonder if Danhausen’s continued friendship with Punk is helped by the fact that they rarely if ever interact at the shows.

Alvarez revealing his true source is Scorpio "Donkey Kong Country is truly perfect. If you do not get this amazing new generation of Donkey Kong madness, you are STUPID. Yes, I know. That's insulting, but it's also true!" Sky. Scorpio "DKC3 is underrated and superior to DKC2" Sky

Here's something I just thought about regarding the whole "Punk is still the linear champ" storyline: If I recall, Ricky won the Owen Hart Tournament by beating *checks notes* CM Punk. So therefore, shouldn't Ricky be the "Real" World Champion right now since he beat Punk?
TLDR: The "Real World Champ" storyline is ass cheeks.

Think what leads me to think the conversation between the two was more on the aggressive side is the fact that Miro went out of his way to disprove the story about Perry starting the altercation and the post trolling Punk about taxis in the UK. Seems dude is at the very least annoyed ay Punk and doesn't sound like he'd be joking around with him during all this.

Me every time I see this thread jump up multiple pages at a time: the plot is slowly turning towards introducing all dirtsheet writers as the overlords of the antagonist but we also might get Miro as the higher power and JR is still there saying "AW SON OF A BITCH" but this time he is saying it because someone slapped their leg during a superkick

"I don't want to speak in riddles" he says, in the midst of speaking in riddles.
He literally changes tense partway through it.

He just means he doesn't want to say "bro" 800 times.

Picturing an alternate timeline where the dirt sheet writers chill the f*** out and don't tweet or radio everything about this the instant they hear something from someone lol If nothing else there'd be a lot less of the, "Meltzer needs to be violently murdered for his centuries of deceit," weirdos every time someone mentions him online. The "Meltzer is the one stirring drama!" people are almost as weird as the "Young Bucks are the leakers" people who pop up every time literally anything gets leaked about anyone. Even saw a "this business will be better off when Meltzer dies" the other day that I bet was only supposed to be a half-joke.

See now I'm just desperately wanting Punk to open up Collision going, "I've been told not to talk about what happened at All In... but I wasn't told I can't SING about what happened at All In!"
