the thing is, even if you were going to use the company pulpit to bash Punk, there are so many things you could do it from that are worthwhile; being hard to work with, being an egotistical dick, playing too hard to the internet, even as a Punk fan there's so much poo poo that it's basically open season, and instead you go with 'CM Punk wasn't actually over,' one of the literal only criticisms of him that's objectively not true

The only person with that kind of pull is Brock, and it’s because he’s the only one that doesn’t give a poo poo about anything besides making money, which makes Vince rock hard for some reason.

Hasn't Roman also said somewhere that he is one of the few that doesn't get scripts for his promos? That he is allowed to say what he wants. Surely the same goes for interviews/puff pieces etc.

he shouldn't advertise that. i thought the reason he sucked so bad was from having to try to remember stuff and fit it into talking with other people who don't have to use a script

I believe he and Heyman do his promos now, and Cena does his, hence the shout outs to Mox

Pylons posted:I realize that's mostly kayfabe but like.. wasn't Dean the only one in the shield people actually gravitated towards (for good reason, Mox owns) despite their repeated attempts to bury him? All three had a lot of love when they were the Shield; Dean was the guy folks figured for the singles push, since Seth and Roman were a really fun team and Seth was able to cover for Roman's weaknesses. Even when they split, Seth had a ton of good heat, folks were slavering for Dean to get his hands on the traitor and Roman was...just kind of there? But he'd improved lots and there was buzz that he could be a fun Goldberg-esque monster who just came out and killed people. And then it all went to poo poo.

Gonzo McFee posted:Punk is a guy Mick Foley saw in early ROH along with Samoa Joe and went to bat for constantly. Dude really wants wrestling to be good and cares about what came after him. Straight Shooting with CM Punk and Samoa Joe is to this day the best shoot interview of all time and it's just two guys in their early twenties talking but its a snap shot of an era, an incredible look at the 2000s indie scene backstage life, and that you could see then that these two were something loving special.

Looks like Kyle Fletcher has gone the Jamie Hayter route and decided to spend lockdown getting absolutely SHREDDED. Really looking forward to seeing Aussie Open back on the scene.

i dunno if roman reigns follows mma that closely but there's a very tiny chance he's expecting cm punk to be a mega star for aew and is using the needle moving phrasing in reference to dana white famously saying nate diaz isn't a needle mover, it sets him up for a feud with punk 5 years from now or whatever, but it's the dumbest biggest stretch of all time
