That's all that is known really. People fall out in Wrestling all the time but the mystery and abruptness of that incident made it all the more curious.

The indy that runs my town had Ron Simmons booked as a special enforcer for matches across a Canadian tour but Ron can't make the show in my town and a couple others because of a family thing. His replacement?

2 COLD SCORPIO.

That's an upgrade, no disrespect to Ron. One of my first WCW memories was Scorpio being Ron's mystery partner on a Clash of the Champions, and Scorpio doing the 450 and my Dad, my brother and I all losing our poo poo because we'd never seen the move before.

currently trying to convince myseld that if he's only appearing and not performing then i shouldn't throw a pile of money at it

he knows...


Tons of wrestling fans will be in town and Punk lives near the PWT store. It's just an easy way for everyone to make some quick cash with not much work. I'll believe he wrestles when he appears in the ring wrestling.

He's not wrestling. Don't work yourself up.

Dude might show up and All In and deliver a promo, but he's definitely not wrestling.

It'd be cool if he did colour commentary for the show, also.

Announcing CM Punk for a meet and greet the night before All In right before tickets for All In goes on sale is smart, because it puts the idea that Punk could appear at All In in people's heads without explicitly spoiling it, so if it does happen, it's still a big moment.

Having said that, if Punk doesn't appear at All In itself somehow, you're gonna have some mad fans and Chicago ain't exactly a great place to have a bunch of wrestling fans mad at you.

No, Matt Riddle vs ZSJ for that belt was genuinely a loving incredible match. It's the only time I've seen Sabre look like he actually has to work for his holds and isn't letting people out on purpose to show off. He doesn't even do his stupid noogie offense where someone has to sell for him rubbing their side or belly so lightly their skin doesn't even depress in this match

If CM Punk was going to be there, it'd be in a bigger arena and they'd make a deal of it just to gently caress with WWE.

nah i feel like if punk was just gonna be there for an appearance and maybe an "in-ring encounter" this is exactly the way they'd cover it. anything more and the show becomes "the return of cm punk" and nothing else matters

punk come back and wrestle kenny omega =[

Nah, that's what you do the next time out.

If this goes the way Cody wants it to, then this will sell 10k and prove him and everybody else who bet on it right and then All In 2: All Innier in 2019 will have Punk and Bryan and sell out the Staples Center or something.

This would probably be the best thing. I don't actually need to see Punk wrestle again, but I'd be happy to see him cut another promo.

Yes - go and have fun

And I think Punk being guest referee for the main event of All In would be the smartest thing to do

You could even have him join Bullet Club or something at the end of the show - then down the line when he's done with UFC he can do more with them in New Japan/ROH/etc.

But in other news, first round of Commonwealth Cup on June 9 has PCO vs Nick Gage. If anyone wants to come sit in the front row with me.
