Mr. Sinister Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) 26 minutes ago, No Nonsense said: In his prime, has a promotion ever revolved around him? Jericho is good, but I can’t put him on that top tier. AEW, rn? *Edit, wait, you said prime. I mean, it was never going to happen in WCW. WWE? He easily could have, but when there's so many 1, 1A, 1B guys it's a lot harder. Seems like politics is more of a determinant on who the promotion revolves around, especially in Vince's land of giants. He's one of the greatest promos of all time, most balanced in-ring, and wasn't above putting his body on the line, and could have big matches with anyone Edited August 13, 2021 by Mr. Sinister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK Posted August 20, 2021 Author Share Posted August 20, 2021 So. Does Punk come out to Cult of Personality or to Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now? Hmmm…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Nonsense Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 This is a prime example of how the internet has ruined this aspect of pro wrestling. This would have been a HUGE surprise back in the day. Now there’s no surprises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) Because AEW needs another faction? I think they need an antihero who is not against backstabbing anyone. Edited August 20, 2021 by The Evil Genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DB is supposed to come back at the NYC show on Sunday. BEsides, I think tonight is just an hour long, so no way you can do too much in that amount of time. Would be a pretty awesome way to end it though. 30 minutes ago, The Evil Genius said: Because AEW needs another faction? I think they need an antihero who is not against backstabbing anyone. I love stables. Always have. Maybe not the weak ones they have in AEW like QT's, but man WWE back in the late 90s, with DX, Nation, The Ministry etc. It was awesome.

HooHog Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 What a huge pop. Man that ruled. 8 hours ago, No Nonsense said: This is a prime example of how the internet has ruined this aspect of pro wrestling. This would have been a HUGE surprise back in the day. Now there’s no surprises. Might agree normally but they needed it out there for ratings. His signing and obviously his first promo are a huge shot at wwe. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixcuincle Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Punk may be the best wrestling figure since 2012. I say that without hyperbole. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Punk is also way overshadowed in the ring. Technically and physically. Even in AEW. We'll see how his mic skills translate in the era of everyone doing 15 finishing moves per match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartyPosse Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 This was a long weekend of wrestling. And now I gotta watch Raw tmrw to see Adam Cole show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 For some reason I started seeing links to old WCW matches after watching Punk, and it was Sting/Bret Hart. Their matches were definitely my last visual image of the company. They had great in ring chemistry. Really was a dream matchup. But Vince Russo was there by then and the workings around the matches were total garbage. Just painful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Never liked CM Punk at all. Not even as a heel, just never bought him. It was a cool reaction though and now fresh off the heels of two old retired stars returning for limited matches at summerslam, Lesnar shows back up again. Yay.
