If I was Khan I would give Punk the 20 mil cause I would double that just on shirt sales. A lot of my tsc brehs letting their disdain for Punk cloud their judgment.

And Punk in AEW would deliver in his segments and promos so he would drive ratings. You can’t expect him to bump the ratings up in WWE... are people gonna tune in to see what Punks gonna do when you got John Laurinitis wack ass and Nash texting himself :why:

He may price himself out, he would be a good get for either company, especially AEW but can’t blow too much on him, especially if the passion isn’t there. I don’t think either company need him but he would help either of them. 10 mil over around 3 years more realistic, 25 I can’t see that happening.

Business wise, for WWE, Punk would have to do the Saudi shows to begin to return that investment. I’m certain he’s bluffing and will do the shows though

I really don't think he'd want to do Saudi, he could be bluffing but I personally don't think he'd wanna do it. That would certainly effect the bag WWE would offer him though.

I dont think he would draw any new fans, which is what AEW needs. The same lapsed fans AEW has attracted are the same fans that had Best in the World shirts back in 2011. :lupe:

Those idiots shoulda just given punk a check and told him to write whatever number he wants on it.

Next time John Cena is a free agent he should just straight up dm him and say name your price.

Only people who want to see a 40 year old whiny failed UFC embarrassment are the fans who are already watching..... This will not draw a single new fan

yeah outside of an insane pop when he first shows up, he does NOTHING to move the needle for WWE...he’s not a draw and we’d all be saying how they botched his comeback within a month...he’s way more valuable to AEW IMO... they need more depth and someone that can be considered a star

No one cares about an MMA record in a scripted sport. Punk has always been more entertaining than Brock and his weak record won't change that.

one guy cares, and his initials are VKM. How does the optics look of a guy who was dominated by UFC tomato cans and guys with only one fight carrying around your world title or being a serious contender

For what it's worth, Brock's return came immediately after two DOMINATING losses and Cain is coming of a sub 30 second loss just this year after 3 years of sitting out with various injuries.
