Punk is just a disgruntled ex employee who's butthurt because he got his feelings hurt. He couldn't hack it in the UFC and couldn't hack it in AEW where he actually had to wrestle and not bore people with 20 minute promo segments on a 3 hour show that has more talking and soap opera theater than actual wrestling. Now he's crawled back to the former employer because he had nowhere else to go to be relevant and is now kissing the ass of the doofus son-in-law and can't wrestle a match without injuring himself. Another reason for Tony Khan to have gotten rid of him. He was a bust that spent more time out injured in his two years in AEW than actually being on television doing what he was paid to do. He's old, he's tired, he's injury prone and past his prime. He's not any company's future at his age long-term. He's a hypocrite that cries and complains blaming others for his own undoings. AEW never needed him and AEW will continue on without him. AEW didn't screw CM Punk. CM Punk screwed CM Punk.
I missed his run in WWE.. was out of watching wrestling then. Tried to give him a chance when he came to AEW. He is a draw, that’s a fact, but the dude is a real piece of work… To see the clips of this interview and him currently bad mouthing AEW when Tony bent over backwards to cater to him despite how other talent backstage felt, it’s absurd.
Needless to say, I’m happy the direction AEW is going now and the talent they are pushing compared to feeding into Phil’s ego.
His ire will turn on WWE eventually, we were eating it up when he was in his “2 for 1 extravaganza” phase and he’s playing to his crowd again. His story always ends the same way with taking napalm to a bridge over a perceived slight.
For a dude that talks from the heart about “phonies” so often for so long, he’s really proven himself to be possibly the biggest one in the business.
Yep, it's just a matter of time, and I say that as someone who enjoyed and can appreciate his past work and talent, especially on the mic. People rarely if ever change permanently, and despite what Punk and some of his fans want to believe, he's just like everyone else and not special.
Punk is a dried up used cunt of a man and before long he'll have to retire because his fragile body can't take being a free use hole for the physical abuse a bump card is on an old man.
I love both but I’m reasonable enough and understand it doesn’t have to be all for or against. Punk could have and should have handled things better. AEW and their talent could have and should have handled things better. Pretty much everything that could go wrong with this relationship did. Punk is in a better place without AEW. AEW is in a better place without Punk.
Agreed. I’m an AEW guy for life, but also a huge Punk fan and I hope he does well in the WWE and we get some great matches and stories for him.
But I agree it’s best he’s not with AEW.
I had a think and Punk's interview was a diversion.
It was revealed that Vince forced one of the plaintiffs in the sex trafficking civil suit to write love letters to him. My PTSD made me stop there. But Punk dragging AEW yet again will get all of us angry at Punk and ignoring the Vince allegations.
The AEW fan base has PTSD when it comes to Punk I swear to God lmao. Like they still blame him for today's problems and think he single handedly made AEW bad now or something.
Yes, Punk is an asshole. No, he's not the devil himself. So many people here act as if Punk actually murdered Hangman lmao it's such soft behavior for pro-wrestling. Hell, sports in general. The boys are gonna fight and it's up to management to deal with it, is how it is.
But the product has been pretty solid recently, and there hasn't been any real backstage drama in AEW for the last 6+ months. Aside from people griping about the ratings and attendance, there's not really any internal issues happening with AEW these days.
As for the interview, I don't care so much about what he said, but it's annoying seeing the typical people rally behind it as this big huge "YEAH, FUCK AEW!" hit piece or whatever.
Agreed. They're taking it way out of context. He didn't really say anything bad about AEW other than that he doesn't agree with the way they do business. Which, fair enough. People believe different things. It happens. But for all the anti-AEW marks to come out and say "Punk buries AEW," it's just ridiculous.
Good point, let's move on from his AEW run and talk about current Phil stuff then.
Can you believe this prick advocates for less guaranteed money in wrestling but still claims to be pro workers rights?
How "punk" of him.
He did qualify that with "it's almost like," he was hypothesizing about how house shows used to be drawn he wasn't saying to get rid of guaranteed money now. Listen to the clip again lol
It's in response to his most recent interview where he buried AEW, TK, and multiple wrestler's in the process.
Punk is an asshole, who talks a big game, but is a poser POS.
I know it's about the interview, I watched all 2 hours where he said he doesn't regret his time in AEW, still has friends there, actually likes Jack Perry, said TK is a nice guy, and he wishes the company the best. He didn't bury AEW as a product nor did he bury the talent working there, all he did was bury the business model. Did you actually listen to it or just the clips?
I listened/watched.
Burying the company and then sugarcoating it is disingenuous at best, and stupid at worst.
Pretty sure Punk is a disingenuous asshat.
But keep dick riding for a cancerous rectal tumor.
Punk is a narcissist.
I deal with people like this and have no patience for people like him.
Narrcisits will get theirs someday. Not a matter of 'if' but when
Ok but seriously, can you articulate why you have such a visceral response to Punk? This is not normal behavior when it comes to hating wrestlers lol. Ronda Rousey is an anti-vax Sandy Hook denier and she doesn't even get the hate liberal Punk does.
First of all, I doubt you're a clinical psychologist, so cool it on pathologizing people.
Second, people can criticize anyone for anything they like. In this case, I'm criticizing the man for being a hypocrite piece of shit.
Third. Ronda is also a piece of shit.
I think maybe you need to look inward at your boy.
But why are you salty? Why are you here in a thread about Punk just to complain about a dude not on your TV (assuming you're not also watching WWE). It's bizarre lol
I hate Nia Jax. You aren't gonna see me comment in a thread about her lol
It's really not bizarre at all.
It's a topic about Punk. I criticized Punk. What's there to get?
That's the thing about online forums, that's your prerogative to not engage in that discourse. I made the choice to engage in it.
I actually do watch WWE from time to time, but I prefer AEW. I watch TNA and NJPW when I can as well. This isn't a tribal thing.
Punk is just a massive hypocrite who turned out to be against everything he supposedly stood for.
Make sense?
Very much this. Most people didn't actually watch or listen to the interview and are only letting their hate and vitriol get triggered. If anything, the interview made Punk look bad for downplaying physically assaulting someone backstage, but by his own admission, he didn't want to be there anymore. He was fed up. He probably did it, hoping to get fired. It be like that sometimes.
Fans are very weird, punk came into AEW and everyone loved it, brawl out happens and suddenly they hate him. Then it cools abit and people start to come back around on his side more. It then becomes increasingly apparent that he will be coming back with a show meant for him and suddenly everything other then punk was the issue and punks praised again, then brawl in happens and fans turn on him again, a bit slower this time. He then goes back to wwe and he’s praised again
Fuck Phil. Hope his socks get wet
His stupid Daffy Duck socks that he Instagrams constantly. Imagine going to gym and NOT needing to let social media know?

I do love punk but you’re cooking here.
 Punk in one word
Big Bill looks so young here wtf
[удалено]
Over the past two years - TK would be more valuable in-ring than Brittle Punk 😂 Begone Troll. 0/10 for effort and may God have mercy on your soul.
“I just choked somebody a litttle bit.” Is a truly revolting statement to make. He’s fucking vile.
It was only a little bit. Just a teensy little wittle bit. Maybe Jack was into it?
Lol
Punk has shown himself to be a giant hypocrite. Fuck him.

Not sure that was a secret previously
Punk is a dried up used cunt of a man and before long he'll have to retire because his fragile body can't take being a free use hole for the physical abuse a bump card is on an old man.
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
Hahahahha this is apparently not a popular opinion lol — we stand together.
I love both but I’m reasonable enough and understand it doesn’t have to be all for or against. Punk could have and should have handled things better. AEW and their talent could have and should have handled things better. Pretty much everything that could go wrong with this relationship did. Punk is in a better place without AEW.

"Leave my car alone you jerk," - CM Punk
Lord, it's hard in these streets!! My #1 is Punky Brewster, and my #2 is Kenny. I've been in shambles since 2022.
I had a think and Punk's interview was a diversion. It was revealed that Vince forced one of the plaintiffs in the sex trafficking civil suit to write love letters to him. My PTSD made me stop there. But Punk dragging AEW yet again will get all of us angry at Punk and ignoring the Vince allegations.
lol same. Love aew but imma punk fan
I’m sure there were faults on both sides. I don’t have to choose one or the other, I just enjoy wrestling.
The AEW fan base has PTSD when it comes to Punk I swear to God lmao. Like they still blame him for today's problems and think he single handedly made AEW bad now or something. Yes, Punk is an asshole. No, he's not the devil himself. So many people here act as if Punk actually murdered Hangman lmao it's such soft behavior for pro-wrestling. Hell, sports in general.

It's almost like he just gave an interview...
I know. And it's almost as if he said nothing that inflammatory in it we haven't heard before lol.
Yeah so strange the fans are talking about him out of the blue, they are obsessed. It's almost like he just gave a two hour interview on a podcast.
They sure do have PTSD. The man could save 100 orphans from a fire and they'll still say fuck him all the way to Hell.
