41 year old LA Knight has spent enough time “in this business-uhh” to know to collab with Punk on his promos

Hey remember when two days ago we heard that senior WWE wrestlers, "guys you wouldn't want to keep in the dark", had no idea Punk was coming in, and how this meant that he wasn't coming in because the WWE runs a mature, responsible dressing room?

I do.

Good thing Talking Smack isn’t around. Punk would meltdown if the Miz cut a promo on him like he did with Danielson.

Yeah same. Losing Punk may be bad for business but as with Cody it improves my AEW viewing experience. Now I just need MJF to go to WWE.

Burying all the trauma from past nights
Burying my anger in the past

If this was for money, I really thought Punk as a landlord would be sufficient and with AJ helping with WOW, that he wouldn’t need to go to the WWE for money. I think that time can heal wounds and 10 years is a long time. I think I wouldnt have an issue with Punk going to WWE if his departure and the situation surrounding his departure from AEW wasn’t so acrimonious. It reminds me slightly of how Regal left AEW and that left a bad taste in my mouth. I hope he finds happiness in the WWE now and will see what he does to see if it’s anything interesting. I just hope he had some self awareness that he won’t be the guy in wwe and that he can accept that.

Nah he’s got that Starz Heels money. He’s good.

I'm not so sure given the rumors around his AEW return had him giving up a lot and it was said cause he needed the money. I'm sure sticking it to Tony is the bug reason for the return but I think him needing money also is a bug part of it

People can change. I know it’s a short time from his time with AEW to WWE but maybe that would be a better environment for him.

I think I’m trying to convince myself with my argument.

Its his last shot to leave a legacy which I think Punk does care about so I'd imagine at the start he'll be on board cause if he fucks up he'll only have Impact/Japan/Lucha left and whelp....

How long that will last especially when he gets told he's gonna lose to Bloodline BS.....

in fairness, i have zero connection to the wrestling character "Chick Magnet Punk" besides being told that he's the biggest deal thats ever been and then he came and made a big mess of the show i like, so idk, i think we're just passing ships in the night on this issue
