He was sincere, I love that he didn't mention WWE and said he'd been away from pro wrestling for 16 years. I dont believe that HE believes that for a second, but that bit annoyed all the right people so I love it. He knew exactly what he was doing with it. Top shithousing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnKringler Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 WWE has taken the piss for 10 years. AEW in one night has showed them their arse. Can't wait for Vince to bring out Brock or Taker in response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Kennedy Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 58 minutes ago, DavidB6937 said: Is Punk returning the final 'massive' moment we had left? I know that probably sounds dramatic but with so many returning from injuries over the years etc, I do wonder if this is the last one we were really waiting for. Undoubtedly there'll be plenty of enjoyable and big moments in years to come but this really felt like the final one so many had been holding out on. I can't think of anything in that league that we're now waiting for. Austin maybe but I don't feel like that's something anyone really expects is ever possible as he seems more than happy to sit out. Rock coming back is the only thing I can think of, and as big as that might feel it’s not even going to get close to CM Punk returning after 7 years in front of a Chicago crowd.

Bryan Danielson’s debut in AEW has the best shout . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnKringler Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I couldn't give a toss about Dwayne returning. Austin's chance has passed sadly. Dude's too old and I don't see him moving the needle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted August 21, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted August 21, 2021 It appears to be the number 1 trending video on YouTube currently too. They're getting huge publicity on this, and rightly so because they did it so right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPDTT Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 That was one of the all time great moments, executed perfectly. At 40 years old, I think I'm now more engaged in wrestling than I was even as a teenager. Tony Khan, you are a legend! A couple of weeks ago someone asked me if I'd picked out the match I'd introduce my son to wrestling with, when he's old enough to watch.....I've got one in mind, it just hasn't happened yet - but it will probably be CM Punk vs Kenny Omega for the AEW title, headlining a PPV - which I suspect will be the Revolution PPV 2022 back at the Wintrust Arena back in Chicago. What a dream match! AEW is everything I hoped it would be and more. I say Dynamite beats Raw in the ratings inside of 12 months......or at least gets close. For what they are paying Punk, they must expect him to bring in at least 200-400k more fans per week. Then you add Bryan Danielson into the mix, they must surely expect another bump. Adam Cole next to jump? I hope so. What an era..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d-d-d-dAz Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I enjoyed Rampage so much that it’s only just occurred to me that Jungle Boy took a Doomsday Destroyer mid-match and went on to win. Wrestling is mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
