I liked that CM Punk, and I only realized it after the fact, laid out exactly what happened to him in 2012-2013 when he was on the cover of the video game and the hottest thing in the company, and The Rock came back and big shotted his way into the main event at Wrestlemania. And now Punk is telling Cody, “I’m doing the same thing to you.” That was kind of a heel move. Punk is doing what he wants to do and saying what he wants to say and letting the crowds determine if he’s the good guy or bad guy. It’s kind of like Stone Cold in ‘97.

@KyleS3m3noff 4 ай бұрын

Yeah, and he laid it out after Cody said he was more CM Punk than him, so he replied "Well let me give you the Full CM Punk Experience", so he was straight up telling Cody he was gonna do what was done to him that pissed him off so much back then. Was so layered.

Not really. Cody lost the AEW fans by refusing to turn heel and the awful feuds He booked for himself. When Punk debuted in AEW there was no chance in hell He could be the top babyface like He so desperately wanted and He went back to WWE. Tony should have intervened between Punk and Page the second things went South and I will admit not doing so was a HUGE mistake and one that will haunt him for a long long time

@Nickbragg97129 4 ай бұрын

This was so good. Both of them had the world’s attention. Hopefully Tony and AEW sees what they lost. And it’s nobody’s fault but their own. The two biggest stars that Tony let slip away! This was the final nail in AEWs coffin. The complete burial of AEW will come at Wrestlemania when Punk and Cody Headlines night 1 and night 2 of Wrestlemania. I would love to hear and see the response of Tony Kahn.
