He really didn't, but it was a FIRE promo. 0 to 60 in 10 minutes.

Also, I'll post this in here, because I actually do want an answer to this question:

I think both Eddie and Punk were assholish.

Eddie the hothead that couldn't take a clean L and being proven wrong by Danielson. And Punk acting high and mighty over a nothing promo with Schiavone. Him calling Kingston a bum and asking if Full Gear was the right setting and not Dark or Elevation was classic heel bullshyt, considering Kingston has wrestled bigger matches than Punk in AEW.

I guess I just don't care about a guy being a dikk if he's being stepped to for no reason and the person stepping to him is getting in the way of his professional obligations. Particularly if the reason the latter is flipping out has nothing whatsoever to do with the first guy.

As I said above, Punk showed incredible restraint in storyline in not attacking Eddie before he did. People who can't take responsibility for their own failures and then blame everyone else for their problems are not sympathetic in the least to me. Who cares if Punk was a dikk in response, he had a right to be in storyline if Eddie was going to act like a child, and he has no obligation to not do so.

But that's just me. :manny: I'll enjoy the storyline regardless.

No one cares. But being a dikk has always been something associated with heels. And when faces are acting like dikks, fans either call them up (well, the company that's booking the story, not the wrestler) or they laugh at it (the countless "Hogan/Cena was the real villain" type of stuff). I don't think it was hard to figure out after watching that awesome promo exchange.

I get it, which is why I'm not mad if it goes in that direction. That sentiment just doesn't resonate with me in this particular scenario, since I thought Eddie's actions had 100% earned that type of response, and I'd probably react similarly to Punk if someone stepped to me like Eddie did.

Wait until they bring in Chris Hero.

Eddie brings in Hero and Ace Steel, Punk gets the beats only to be saved by....Colt Cabana.
