I think comparing Phil brooks to Ric Flair is pretty disingenuous

 

Where was LA Knight?

 

You just did you geek, not me.

 

Rumble will be the most filled Tropicana field has been since the 2008 World Series

 

I feel nothing about this CM Punk thing for whatever reason. It's cool I guess but iono, I've moved on.

 

Yeah that’s true in pretty loopy right now lol

 

AI is getting very good at this

 

Dana White wants nothing to do with Punk at all. His time in the UFC is looked at as super embarrassing and a joke for the company. Dana hates all of the celebrity boxing shit and would be a huge hypocrite to have Punk involved in anyway lol

To your other point, WWE is selling well wherever they go regardless of the event. Survivor Series sells itself and the show was sold out well in advance. They don’t need to announce anyone to have a stacked card since they are on fire though that strategy will not last forever obviously.

 

TK in shambles

 

Yeah, I mean, AEW clearly did what they could to protect her, but it'd be abundantly clear how not ready she is if they put her in against any of the current main roster women. Would probably have been smarter not to do the huge flashy signing if she's not appearing til like the Rumble.

 

it is really shocking shit, the story behind how it happened is gonna be v interesting

 

How is nobody eating those slim Jim’s? I’d have finished a whole box already f

 

This photo is absolute fever dream stuff.

I will say, as little as I like Punk, good on HHH for navigating the last couple of years like he has. Dude damn near died...and came out of it strong as hell running things as well as WWE can be run at this point. Glad to see all his NXT time pay off.

 

Is he injured?

 

andrade's going 0-5 in the continental classic

 

Honestly I’m surprised as many people as there are are acting like it’s a surprise lol

 

Hopefully Punk/Seth get personal with each other on the mic.

 

Also Brody King isn't gonna leave AEW cause WWE schedules wouldn't work with his music career and I can't see Brody fucking King give up hardcore for the shiny big lights.

 

They could build her up without having her wrestle and then when she’s finally ready do a big angle. Kinda like how Crow Sting just hung around for a long ass time before doing anything. I mean obviously he had already been Sting but something along those lines

 

Knowing Triple H is back in control (right? I'm almost positive he is) makes it so much easier for me to wish well for WWE, Punk or no Punk.

 

He's still feuding with The Bloodline on Smackdown. Just wasn't any room on the show tonight, and I'm okay with it personally because I'm tired of the Bloodline stuff anyway

 

Punk is still a giant, bridge burning, penis. And he is over the hill at this point in the ring (comparatively). If they wanna have him cut promos, commentate, that’s great. But he absolutely should not wrestle on a regular basis.

He needs to be used like Roman or Brock for their PPVs. When you start having him wrestle on raw’s twice a month and he gets hurt it’s a gg.

 

Monday's rating is gonna pop like a mf
