The Gaffer Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) Spare a thought for poor Adam Edgeland. He's got to be the real loser in this. His AEW debut now seems about twenty years ago, and there's just realistically so, so much less to potentially be excited for there. Edited November 26, 2023 by Gay as FOOK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only guess that AEW offered him more money though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At his age, and stage of his career, he’d be mental not to go for the bigger pay with a less strenuous workload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 It sounded like WWE didn't really have much planned for him and he'd rather be a bit more active and able to go have fun with his best friend before his career ends. I imagine this all feels incredibly lucky to him and he just wants to enjoy the opportunity to wrestle much like Bryan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew "the ref" coyne Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 So... he finally did it and came back. So what do WWE do with him? Do you put him into a program with main eventers? Do you put him in the midcard to spice up the middle of the card and slowly build him up? Do you hot shot him to the main event of mania? If I were Punk, I would of demanded the rumble win and a mania main event myself, but that's just me. I were WWE, I'd use him in the middle of the card to work with the midcard heels and slowly build him up over the next year (or 2). Thoughts?

Mr_Danger Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I doubt WWE were offering him the moon and he’ll know his position and worth even if it differs to what most others might think it is. He’s a big name and his return is newsworthy, that will be reflected in his position on the card. There’s no obvious place for him as it is. I did wonder if the discussion over who the leader of The Judgement Day is could lead to one of them being ousted and Punk taking over but they’re not the Nexus and it doesn’t really fit with that group. My thought is they’ll either make him an unlikely partner to Seth Rollins for a bit or he’ll do the sporting handshake feud until they have a better plan for him.

At this point, I'd imagine even his dog would rather play fetch by itself. Edited November 27, 2023 by Carbomb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted November 27, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted November 27, 2023 Couldn't give a shit. He came back two years ago and it was perfect. He then reminded us for a few months that he's brilliant. Then reminded us for the rest of the time that he's a fucking arsehole. It's over. I can't imagine what sort of person would want to see him now. But then I can't imagine what sort of person would watch Seth Rollins on a weekly basis so what do I know?

There’s a remarkable skill in your recent posts, a sort of exquisite venom, that leaves the reader in no doubt that not only do you think wrestling is full of cunts, you think the people watching it - indeed commenting on it on here - are also complete cunts. It’s impressive. Still, looking forward to Raw.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fucking embarrassed that I've followed this garbage all my life and even more depressed that I still care enough to even read about it. Never gonna lie about my opinion but I also resist the urge to reply about 50 times a day because I know how tiresome that would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
