the thing is if Punk ain't showing up then why would the show be called First Dance? it ain't even the first Rampage show :heh:

may not even be Punk but it's almost a guarantee that someone is debuting :manny: they chose that name for a reason it ain't like when Cokeboy randomly decided to use Great Balls of Fire as a PPV name

If Punk doesn't debut tonight that's gonna be a whole chapter in the "Rise and Fall of AEW" book.

I don't care if he doesn't shows up, but those Chicago hooligans gonna burn up the stadium if they don't deliver.

It's weird to me how AEW are handling this Punk thing.

I don't see why they don't just announce he's on the show as the element of surprise has been gone for weeks now. They've done everything but confirm it's happening.

But by announcing it before hand you might still be able to pull in some casuals who aren't up to the latest dirtsheet rumours.

Ratings. Want more people to watch live and showcase the product. If they advertise that CM Punk is All Elite and appearing, people might not watch and just catch the clips on youtube.

This jabroni tag-team all up in the show again :russ:

They must legit have dirt on Tony Khan or something.

Those dudes have earned their money off their reactions to Sting alone :mjlol:

The first week, when dude was face to face with him and marked out like "Oh, shyt - you're the real Sting:ohhh:....:gladbron:" :dead:

Them literally screaming"OH, FUKK! :merchant::damn::lupe:" when Sting no-sold the table bump on Dynamite was :laff:

They're there to make whoever they're up against look strong by bumping like madmen, or if they cheat to help someone like Garcia win, the loser still keeps their heat because it wasn't a clean loss.

They definitely have that 'Jobber tag team on WCW Worldwide' energy though :pachaha:

i'm honestly thinking rather than have Punk show up and cut a promo they'll have him in a video package confirming he's officially with the company then announce his first appearance will be at All Out

Chicago crowd may not like it but at least All Out is in Chicago :manny:

It would be the opposite :dwillhuh:

Why do you think TNT were so mad that they kept the Sting appearence a secret?
