So it’s been 3 weeks since he’s been fired and since then AEW has been firing on all cylinders. I’m a Punk fan and would have loved to see him have a legendary run to close out his career, but he did everything to himself. But I gotta say the Punk threads haven’t been as active and the focus has been more about the shows. I felt this since Wednesday

I think that at this point, everything there is to be said about Punk has been said. Unless he or someone else close to the situation says something, there's nothing more to add. If the big thread had been kept open it probably would have naturally died by now too.

I think the mood at All Out has really carried on in most places. People were sick of the constant drama with the dude and were relieved and ready to move on.

We still joke about it every now and then in the live threads, but I think fatigue just finally set in. There's also been nothing new to add to the discussion from either side because Punk hasn't said anything yet.
It's been nice having most of the threads be about the on screen stuff again.

Oh, he’ll post something on Instagram or something and the 25 page threads will continue. Normal service shall resume.

Most people are just ready to move on from all the nonsense.

the show has moved on with great shows, the fanbase seems to have moved on and discussing it gives you a feeling of shits just gonna get locked eventually anyways so why bother talking about it
the only person who hasn't moved on is ftr hair

Part of me wanted the main thread to stay open until it hit 1000 pages, but honestly it's for the best that the whole thing is diying down. Why hold on to an unpleasant topic when shit is getting good?

But I gotta say the Punk threads haven’t been as active and the focus has been more about the shows. I felt this since Wednesday It's because the "CM Punk Show" was cancelled due to a lack of interest. I'd rather he go away and take his stans with him.

My bad, I could have sworn I saw the thread might get unlocked if actual important info started to come out Maybe it would just be updated and kept locked, or maybe I dreamt the whole thing idk, I had been sick for the past week lol

I hope so, have really exhausted my well of one-liners and will have to start reusing them:

Because at this point he's totally irrelevant. He's been fired, he's never coming back to AEW, and he's a proven serial liar who nobody aside from the biggest die-hards will take seriously when he says anything anymore.
So really who the f*** cares?

What’s left to talk about at this point? He’s been let go from the territory. Are we meant to get another 10 pages a day from passive-aggressive digs he makes on commentary for b-tier MMA promotions?
Honestly, it just feels like some miss the shitposting.

Punk either can't say anything because of NDAs or he is shopping for the best price he can get to tell his side on a podcast or to a dirtsheet/magazine/gossip site. Whichever one is true he won't be mentioning it on social media if he is smart.

I choos to believe nobody cares about Punk anymore because we're all more concerned about the noise Roderick Strong's hospital bed made the other day.

Overshadowed? I don't know if I'd say that. While some of it wasn't all Punk's fault, he was the center piece of a lot of drama that killed the positive vibes AEW had built up with fans, and good will is just tough to build back up. Does AEW feel like it's on the right path though and have moved on from it? Yes
