CM Punk FIRED from AEW; Returns to WWE

[Flex Luger]

The ticket sales for the Collision show last night were ass from the beginning. That's why when people say Punk was a draw like how? Because he sells merch? Merch is peanuts compared to the money that's made off tickets and PPV. Them Collision ticket sales just about everywhere were only between like 3500-5500 outside of the first one which was his return in Chicago. He's not putting butts in seats.

They gonna yell about merch until the day they die. Dudes sells T-shirt’s so fukking what

Collision will still be fine. Punk wasn't the lead booker. Collision is good because of Starks, Bullet Club Gold, FTR, Hobbs, Miro, Andrade and House of Black. Those guys aren't going anywhere.

Hope so . The irony would be that Collision ends up going to a milly without Philly, and the real games begin:

I will be in them trees at the SHAMBLES of what could the Elite do about these matters on their Wednesday show

And Punk is eventually going back home. We’ve seen guys who had bigger heat than Punk return. Vince knows that will draw and Punk doesn’t have issues with guys there. Punk will show up on tv a year from now, bury AEW, and get the puters putin again

SRS is saying there are numerous top people there who don't like him and don't want him there. So to say Punk has no issues with guys there isn't accurate.

Bucks doing what they did last night and getting away with it is why aew is seen as second rate.

If punk stepped to vince , vince woulda put the strap on him. Lol. Different times we in… if anything this just makes you appreciate vince more.

I think he's a draw in the sense that for a big return match/appearance or maybe a one off he can do some numbers but it was clear that nobody was interested in seeing him every single week.

The word "draw" is thrown around a lot and these days it's not fair to pin numbers on one individual but with Punk it's a special case because the show was literally built around him and what he was doing and it wasn't drawing in the ratings or in ticket sales. That's the facts.

Don't know when the contracts for all the guys in HoB expire but they will be leaving when they expire, I imagine.

I don't see a scenario where Collision ever gets a million as long as it's on Saturday nights.

what he thinks he is...

what it really be ...

This tells me, you, everybody..Jack Perry has no hands. Any thekrtic nygga could sidestep the Rebel coming in and knock his ass out with a Roy Jones hook.

Time for CM Punk to control his narrative

Can't run to Colt Cabana for another podcast burial like he did in 2014 about Cripple H and Reigns.."Youre gonna win but make Roman look STRONG"

I guarantee you that there will be a signing that's exclusive to Collision that will get the puters putin. Damn a college foosball.

Kevin Nash got a point

I love nash but nash slapped roddy piper, slapped samoa joe, smacked a few other guys i cant remember, ran roughshot over everyone in wwf and wcw. Hes the last one who should talk cause he was the OG bully cm punk

 

[Beautiful Bobby Eatin]

Phil damn near had so much pull and could have just dead the petty Elite shyt. Instead, he lost his job to a "real ass" Jack Perry. It blows my mind of how you go around talking about bullies, but get punked by the ones that were head first in the toilet in middle school

And thats the saddest part. Punk has gone on record and said he was bullied but i guess taking BJJ with kids, listening to Rancid and having tattoos makes you the bad ass youve always dreamed to be

This logic has 1 glaring flaw: the old school generation would've 100% worked a program with The Elite as soon they were back on TV. That's something Punk couldn't get done (regardless if he truly wanted it to happen or not) and made shyt worse by trying to get a whole 2 hour show without any interaction with the guys he had a beef with and making it very hard for people to work on Saturday.

The old guys Punk idolized and embraced him when he was younger would've not behaved as childish as he did. They would've went taken a deep breath and made everyone realize the best outcome was putting business first and that's something good ol' Phil has never been able to do his entire fukking career.

Punk wants the "old school" wrestling back without the issues that came with it, and that's just not realistic.

Yeah, I’ll agree with you on the part about Collision. Punk creating a soft roster split made shyt even more complicated. I do believe that he has some regrets about what happened at All Out last year. He was gonna man up and bury the hatchet but The Young Bucks didn’t want any part of that. They’re behavior since Brawl Out shows it.

These supposed reports about Buck turning down meetings with Punk. At end of the day it’s both sides at fault but you can’t turn a new leaf and make money if the other side ain’t willing.

So I think Punk wanted to do business with them and ultimately it would’ve solved their problems and everyone would’ve prospered from it. But the resentment and hate from The Elite side is just too deep. I do think Kenny is the most level head of them all and could’ve did business with Punk but he has to appease his friends or they will be emotionally damaged.

I did enjoy what Punk did on Collision and his involvement behind the scenes. Bryan is involved from what I heard too but yeah he needed to keep his emotions in check just long enough to finish out on a good note. The All In traveling situation and Perry being a dipshyt broke him.

After AEW announced that they had terminated the contract of CM Punk following his altercation with Jack Perry at AEW All In in London, KENTA took to Twitter to react to the news. He tweeted, “WELCOME BACK MY GO 2 SLEEP.”
