They were hyping this up majorly for days, and we get that shit...
What a waste of time that was.

Who do you think were the ones who kissed him on the mouth? I hope it wasn't Indus Sheer with their thick beards. If only Daniel Bryan was still there.

That was the promo of a man who knows his soul is gone.

That was the promo of a man who knows his soul is gone. He definitely feels way more controlled in this enviroment, probably for the best.

It was fine, hardly groundbreaking but I'm just glad it wasn't some worked shoot nonsense. Some people will have you believe it was the worst promo in the history of the business though. I feel like he said what he wanted to say, what he was feeling. Like he said it was hard to put into words. Kinda like Brays first promo back.

you think we get Seth/Becky vs Punk/AJ down the line? Last I heard, AJ's career was ended by an injury as far as I know.

His AEW debut was his genuine thank you to the fans. This felt like a condescending start of a slow burn heel run. His stuff always gets better once he can sink his teeth into a rivalry.
Plus no ice cream bars for the Nashville crowd.

Felt like they were testing the waters there. Subdued promo that let's them know he can take orders. Now we just gotta wait until he can get a good feud or promo where he can be let off his leash.
But yeah, this was clearly a "aiight bruh, just cut a lil promo about this and send us home" thing. It was good enough for me.

That's all well and good, but how long before he's burnt out and miserable again? Surely he isn't going to be working the schedule he once complained about. Maybe he'll get the Reigns treatment and get far less house show dates than the Codys and Seths of the world.
Otherwise, nothing we haven't already seen from him in other promos, and nothing all that controversial (apart from *maybe* the "they actually love me here" bit).
This might be crazy but I think he should honestly do a few six-man tags with New Day (given his well publicized friendship with Kofi). His first few Collision matches with FTR after his injury showed that he could slowly be eased into a larger role.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it was the worst promo in the history of the business but given that he's usually better than that I did expect a better promo, as it was it's one of the weakest ones I've seen him do IMO.

I actually feel myself wanting to defend Punk against the negativity, seriously what timeline are we in? 2011?

I mean it's the Chicago Flag... but the idea of Punk grabbing the lightning bolt logo is a pretty striking logo. Yeah but I don't remember it being on any of his merch before the iconic white shirt. Most wrestling fans associate that flag with Punk nowadays lol. Well there is this.
