Hes coming back tonight fellas, anyone else HYPE?
Im not the biggest AEW guy but I will be tuning in tonight to AEW Rampage on TNT at 10e/9c.
CM Punk is in my top 5 all time favorites because he is the best in the world, in the ring, on the mic, hell even on commentary.
Heres the best promo of all time for your viewing pleasure.

I like punk so much that I purposely have FORGOTTEN his foray in the MMA

For some reason
The pipe bomb promo is the greatest promo ever cut in WWE period
But I’m not a fan of Punk. Even when he was in WWE I didn’t think his mic skills or wrestling were on the level of the pony boys WWE usually put at the top. The pipe bomb promo was goated, in my opinion because he was telling the full and ugly truth about WWE to an unsuspecting audience rather than his skills on the mic
And he completely made a mockery of MMA. Dude was terrible
That being said I’m excited to see him come back and see what he does. I remember some time after reports said that Punk left WWE, Heyman cut this EXCELLENT promo, while coming out to Cult of Personality. I remember watching it live, that was one of the biggest okey dokes I’ve ever seen
Does not feel like this was 7 years ago

I feel it, Punk isnt for everyone...but heres my take.
Punk was the first in a string of "work rate" guys wwe ended up hiring.
The 6 years prior to him were FILLED with roided-out body builders taught in their minor leagues how to wrestle (and poorly)
Punk was an indie guy, him and Daniel Bryan, represented everything the WWE should be...great in ring wrestling with builds that dont look like someone was created in a creatine lab.
So he was everything wrestling was becoming (and became today) off the heels of a very poor era of big goofy stiffs.
That pipe bomb was incredible but for me he represented a shift in tone for the whole industry.
if HE got pushed, then anyone like him could.
BTW Paul Heyman is the undisputed MIC GOD.
-
@petravork that’s definitely fair. Him + Heyman were undefeated I think when his character reached that point where he was paired with Heyman is when he was untouchable by the other superstars. No one got pops like him and he developed his own cult
I think the storyline where he was the head of The Straight Edge Society with Luke Gallows and the jobber was one of the best ones WWE had done in a decade (aside from the Nexus arc)
I was actually thinking about DB as I was typing. Shortly after Heyman cut that promo walking out to Cult of Personality is when I stopped watching Wrestling
I agree, the industry hates the DB and CM Punks, but the fans love a relatable character. I’m excited to see him back tho I haven’t watched wrestling like that in years but ima def tune into AEW tonight

I forgot what happened to his shirt. I think someone stole it and they didn't have any his size so he wore a stone cold shirt lol
-
Rock and Jericho > on the mic
HBK > in the ring
He wasn't the goat at either one stop the cap

Hes not even close to being the best in any of these categories

@508 his voice sounds like he has throat herpes

@petravork I said stone cold is the best to ever do it on the mic
-

Nah hes just a redneck. Best character ever.
-
Anyways.. today is the biggest day for AEW. They have to deliver, even if the Punk rumors aren't true. They've got tons of eyes on tonight's episode.
-
Daniel Garcia stan tonight
-
@508 agreed his character is great with the beer drinking and whatnot but I don't really enjoy listening to his voice so don't think he's one of the greatest on the mic.
To me Rock and Jericho are in a league of their own when it comes to mic skills. Then Punk is in that 2nd tier with Miz and some others
-
@yosemite_ham Idk his voice never really bothered me but he's the greatest for a reason and it ain't because of his in ring skills
-
CM Punk gonna come out right away and cut a promo and then Daniel Bryan will interrupt him. Maybe someone else like Strowman will interrupt Bryan. Either way it sounds like a few big surprises not just Punk.
-
@508 I think it has a lot to do with McMahon. Vince probably has more to do with the success of Stone Colds character than people realize. His willingness to play the evil boss that Stone Cold always gets over on made it easy to cheer for the guy. His vignettes like beating his ass in the hospital or filling his convertible with concrete for example had more to do with the appeal of him than his ability to cut a good promo. At least imo
I also don't agree he the goat but he's top 5
-
@508 Bryan is in AEW???? Oh god I’m so out of the loop. Haven’t watched wrestling since the royal rumble. When did he leave the wwe?
-
@nd13 he's probably one of the 50 people the WWE has released in the last month. Idk who they are exactly but I've seen the articles. Apparently even Orton was one
-
@yosemite_ham Vince had alot to do with it but he did great even in angles against the Rock. His rivalry with Booker T was awesome especially the grocery store fight.. Vince just always played a big role, he did the Corporate Ministry and chosen one angle, and that promo with the nWo, probably Vinces greatest promo.

His contract was up earlier this year. Strowman Bryan Punk and Wyatt are most likely to jump ship. I think Wyatts no compete clause is active until October tho. Shit maybe Lesnar shows up
-
@yosemite_ham they cut Daniel Bryan??? I saw that they cut bray Wyatt and I thought that was fuckin wild. The fiend was one of their biggest draws in years
-
@508 aew taking over I guess
-

DB's contract expired
-
@nd13 can't believe how many times they fumbled with Wyatt
They went slightly overboard with the fiend but I thought the Wyatt family should have been one of the best gimmicks ever
-
@yosemite_ham they fumbled Wyatt so many times I lost count. They fumbled Stroman too.
I don't know if Wyatt and Stroman head to AEW full time tho. AEW can't just sign EVERYONE and I'm not sure Bray fits their style in the ring
-
These championship contender matches are ass
-
If this dude don’t show i riot
-
-
Does anyone have a stream link?
My shits on at 10PM. Can't wait
-
There he fucking is
-
-
I didn’t think he would come out that fast lmao
-
-
fuckin amazing moment
That crowd. Perfect.

He had to. That CM Punk chant would have continued through every single segment for the entire hour if he didn't.
That is the biggest pop I've heard since
The promo wasn't great but who fucking cares?
Every fan is getting a free ice cream bar which is just pure class. AEW is doing it right.
Lol
I think Jordan is the only person more popular than him in Chicago right now and probably forever.

-
I can now forgive him for his mma adventure lol

10mins of commercials during the tag match
