UK Kat Von D Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 37 minutes ago, TheToeSucker said: Yeah I think Punk's goal was always to go back to WWE, Thinking about it now. It’s pretty obvious that his goal was never to come back and that times have just changed. Do you actually think when he walked away and did the podcast it was all part of his plan to come back a couple of years later? Punk had always said he didn’t plan to wrestle after 40 anyway. If he is coming back it’s because the wrestling landscape is very different to how it was when he left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheToeSucker Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Maybe not WWE, But maybe deep down, without admitting it to even himself, that he wanted that fucking main event, and figured he'd get it but he'd have to become the very thing he hated.

If he is coming back it’s because the wrestling landscape is very different to how it was when he left In my particular case, I said I didn't think he was "completely" done, and I stand by that. I always thought it was a possibility. As I said, he was quite vocal about the part-timers, and there was a point when he quit when I thought "I wonder if he's thinking 'Well, if this is how they do things, then I might as well play the same game'." Especially as he seemed to feel particularly hard done-by as regards the 'Mania main event and the overall booking of him. I wouldn't blame him, either - if I were in the same position and were as confident in my ability and brand, I'd probably go the same route (if that's what he's done).

DavidB6937 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 None of us know what he was actually thinking so let's not all pretend to be fucking mindreaders or Punk's best mate. We're all just assuming based on what we've heard or read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVM Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Punk was clearly nackered and demoralised by 2014 - you can tell that just by his look at the time. Will Punk come back? Yeah probably. I think he’s trying a few other avenues to make a mint first but inevitably he isn’t a fighter, he isn’t a Hollywood actor - he is a wrestler. He will only be able to make a mint as a wrestler, so he’ll be back. His anti corporate narrative is really based on a falsehood given he has built a career essentially by attracting an audience for advertisers/directly making money for corporate machines.

Paid Members gmoney Posted September 30, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted September 30, 2019 Can we put a ban on that gif? I feel like I've seen it 20 times in the past week, it's starting to feel like twitter. If you can't think of some funny or interesting words to say, or at least have something that hasn't been posted a million times before, how about not bothering to post? It's not a requirement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll even post a gif of that cunt raising his eyebrows and shaking his head. It not like you were trying to do anything noble or fun with it either, you were trying to have a go at someone!

I was making reference to some very overused gifs on this forum in general. I don’t personally keep tabs on who posts what but it wasn’t accusing you of anything. Also, how is rolling your eyes at a comment having a go? It’s expressing a reaction caused by a viewpoint that’s controversial or misguided in my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
