They’ll more than likely have to buy his contract out.  If Tony K was a real man he’d send for Big Kev. He fucking destroyed Punk years ago and he would again. This is the idea I like best. Offer a mutual termination with a nominal golden handshake. If he refuses then job him out in 10 seconds to people over 60 until he walks away.

The Gaffer Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 (edited) https://www.sescoops.com/news/bobby-fish-trashes-cm-punk-open-to-wwe-return/ Bobby Fish has been ranting and raving again, this time with a really odd understanding of the profession he got into: Quote “Phil is not a bad pro-wrestling, but what Phil is not is a martial artist,” said Fish. “I’ve been doing martial arts since I was eight years old so I take a lot of pride in it… You are insulting the audience’s intelligence. It’s honestly insulting for you as one of my co-workers. As a martial artist you’re asking me to go out and sell, put over your bunk-ass martial arts. It’s insulting to the audience. It’s insulting to me.” Honestly, it's comforting that the extreme prejudice I had to seeing him on Dynamite has been vindicated. Edited September 9, 2022 by Gay as FOOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I dunno, one of the biggest complaints about Punk before even the UFC "run" was that his martial arts based offence was fucking shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The door is closed and locked. Then The Elite, 3 people he just insulted in a press conference, shoulder open the door while being accompanied by multiple people. It would take very little in the way of raised voices for that to seem aggressive, and I have zero doubt that there were raised voices. Punk, outnumbered by people getting aggressive strikes first because it feels the best way to not be beaten down by a group getting aggressive with him. IF that's how it went down to Punks POV, you can see the self defence argument yeah?  Also, to be very fucking clear, I'm not in any way saying this is what went down, nor even if it is that it was the right response. Just that perception can shade a scenario, and anyone making a judgement call has to take that into account as far as making an official judgement.

I was the DJ, and he actually asked for Fozzy.  Edit: and again, I'm just saying that Punk being sacked isn't a given and that circumstances could be seen through a lens. NOT that he is innocent.
