Will it allow me to pay DAZN 10-20 a month and to get PPVs? If so great. If not, I'm sure there are other compelling reasons for this, but none that involve me.

Meh, not that I hate the guy or anything, but it'll be hard to care one way or the other if he stays or goes.

Can we just do away with factions at this point?

AEW board stats... Every thread for the AEW board on page 1 (including the stickies like BTE) equals 1,089,066 views. This thread alone is almost 1/3 of that total at 307,602 views. This thread is just pure fun. It's the closest thing to the TNA threads circa 2014 or 2015 or so that we're just hysterical. The difference for me being I didn't watch TNA then and I do watch AEW now, so I'm understanding a lot more of the references.

Yeah, BD needs to win this one. It would add some much needed legitimacy to the title.

He would get a massive pop.
Don't confuse online fans in a relatively small ecosystem to how a live audience will respond, especially at a point in time that's far away from a theoretical comeback.
Personally I'm conflicted. I still really enjoy CM Punk the pro wrestler. But this latest off the rails thing...ugh, it's hard for me to separate the character from the man at this point.

I didn't think it was that bad. I wish they would have addressed the issue directly though, but whatever, on the other hand there are probably a lot of people who didn't know what happened. That said, those who didn't are probably like "what the f***" and then went and searched why, so it makes no sense they didn't address it.

Punk in AEW is starting to feel like Hogan in WCW. He can do what ever the hell he wants with no repercussions. Pretty much, and it's even more bizarre as Punk was never the wrestling legend that Hogan was. I at least kind of understood that one.

. Fightful with the transcription. Holy f***. I'm speechless, other than without hearing it, I find it hard that much vitriol can be taken out of context

I really enjoy CM Punk the wrestler, but boy does Phil Brooks come off like a royal twat.

Nope, but as always it's for the same reason. I just am not willing to shell out fifty bucks for a PPV. I think 20 would be my limit. And WWE spoiled me for pretty much not paying anything other than a service I already subscribe to.

sometimes less is more, swearing is sometimes better used sparsely than being used every five minutes. Yup, I used to work with a guy where every other word out of his mouth was motherf***er, and after a while it was hard to tell, or care, if he was upset or not.

Heenan and Rick Rude. It didn't suck because both are great, but Rude just didn't need a manager. All he needed to do was go out, call the fans out of shape sweathogs, kiss a girl from the audience and bam, instant heat.

I don't like either of them, so this is nothing more than dbag on dbag crime to me.

I love AEW and don't hate much about it, but that match/booking decision/whatever sucked.
For one it completely sucked the energy out of the show for me. This was a super hyped match, that all if a sudden is put in in the middle of the show, and then the announce team calls a different match the Main Event. So bizarre.

Jeff Jarrett's career is one of the funniest and most perplexing things in the world. Just an anomaly of a man. I still kind of love the dude, and I have no earthly idea why. I kind of do too, but the gold scam thing left a really bad impression on me that's hard to get past. Guess that's the norm in wrestling (not the gold scam, but my favorite wrestlers having some sort of issue that I hate).

That's a tough one. Tito was legit one of my favorite wrestlers as a kid, but as an adult, The Model is better than anything Tito did

That feels like an insult, and I say this as someone who liked Disco back in the day.
