If AEW manages to get Punk and Bryan, Vince CAC ass might kick the bucket.
THE WRESTLING THREAD: BROCK LESNAR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT!!!
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
I don’t see Punk in AEW. Punk is coming back for the money and storyline.
WWE offers the best of both worlds. Biggest wrestling company in the world with a Multimedia empire behind it.
Yes, Punk had issues with Triple H, but he has said he had a good relationship with Vince. plus money talks. All the money WWE made and saved this year due to cuts will loosen up funds for his return.
I see Punk showing up post SummerSlam and Challenging Roman.
AEW got Chris Jericho vs Nick F'n Gage to wrestle next week...
How in the fuck?!?!?!

Yeah, I'm sure Punk is just itchin' to do the same exact storyline they're running with John Cena right now and right after he does it.
That's gotta be better than Punk vs. Omega/Hangman/Black/Mox/Miro/Pentagon/Andrade/Cody/MJF/Kingston/Starks and possibly Bryan Danielson, or a reunion with Luke Gallows, or a squashing of beef with Colt Cabana, or having the freedom to wrestle just about anywhere else.

Exactly. Better matchups and creative freedom in AEW. In WWE after he jobs to Reigns then what? WWE at this point is just living off it's name because it's been around for 50 million years. AEW is the hotter promotion.
Big week for AEW
Bryan is allegedly signed by AEW
AEW ratings up 11% last two weeks
AEW officially signs Thunder Rosa
Kiera Hogan leaves Impact (hopefully she brings them cheeks to AEW and joins her GF Diamante)
CM Punk teasing with the Alan Parsons Chicago Bulls theme when he's rumored to pop up when AEW goes to Chicago for All Out in September

Dude has a couple WWE theme remixes that go hard.
While I can see DB in AEW, I'm still in "I'll believe it when I see it" mode when it comes to CM Punk going to AEW.
Although between WWE and AEW I do think he would be more likely to go to AEW.
I don't the money is an issue because Tony Kahn has already shown he'll spend as much of his dad's money as he wants to get who he wants.
It's like the wrestling version of the movie "The Toy". LOL
CM Punk would look like the biggest hypocrite in the world if he went back to WWE after all the crap he's talked about their product.

I can't WAIT to see a Daniel Bryan vs Penta or Fenix in a match! Daniel in his prime would be better, but I think he can still go to put on a few really good matches. I don't think he has great in his tank anymore.
Thunder Rosa signing to AEW "helps" their women's division, but she's kinda been there so this doesn't really help.
Kiera Hogan I think signs with WWE, don't know why, have no basis for this reasoning. I feel Vince needs more women to feed to Charlotte.
Speaking of AEW womens division they really need to come up with better ways for Nyla Rose to NOT be champ
Kiera Hogan ..... in fact any wrestler with previous national exposure, should stay far away from WWE. WWE will bury them so deep, it will be hard to regain their reputation. Since AJ Styles, when has the last "IMPORT" achieved success in that company? Here is a snapshot...
Shineske Nakamore - Fail
Samoa Joe - Fail
Mia Yim - Fail
Karion Kross - Fail (losing to mid-card Jeff Hardy on Raw)
Damien Priest - Fail
Bobby Roode - Fail
Just about all those guys in their NXT roster will never make it on the main rosters. Pipe Dream.

That depends on who he works with. Danielson vs Omega would be a 5 star match easy. Danielson/Page would be another one.
It helps in that they can fully push her now over the top women without any restrictions. I just hope they do a slow burn with her and Baker. Don't burn through that feud just yet.
Wherever she goes she isn't anything special.
They need to elevate some of their babyfaces like Kris Stattlander, Tay Conti, Riho to face Baker.
I don't know much about Kiera Hogan, but I do know if she goes to WWE the first thing they'll do is change her name.
You know Vince can't have another Hogan in the company that's not related to Hulk.

They don't book Charlotte like that. Otherwise we'd be seeing her in feuds with Naomi, Liv Morgan, Mandy Rose, Nattie, etc., they got plenty main roster women to bury, plenty of women to call up from NXT to bury. She only does the top feuds. To be the man, you gotta beat the man, like her pops, that's her gimmick.
It would be a waste for them to sign Kiera just to do that. She's not even that big of a name. Maybe HHH might want her, but they don't need her.
It also doesn't help that gimmick-wise, she's kinda Sasha Banks, and apparently there's also beef there.
I doubt she would go to the same company just to get shitted on because Sasha is already one of the top people. It ain't like they're ever gonna make her Sasha's equal or put her over solely off the fact Sasha's homegrown talent and Kiera's straight from Impact. I don't see Kiera putting herself in that situation.
Clearly she should go to AEW. She's needed. Maybe the vets over there can help her hone herself into a big name, and be less like Sasha. Plus, it would be a good look for AEW to have all them black women over there.
...or Batista...
Not desperate. After 20 years they finally have some competition so they can't do the same lazy things they're used to. They have to actually try something new.
I think WWE is desperate, but not really about AEW. Vince is desperately trying to make WWE bigger than what it is.
They want to be this big media company and it's just not working.
From trying to get highlights on ESPN and FS1 and shit, and being acknowledged at the ESPYs (which is kinda comical), and being on multiple channels, and produce all this fluffly ass content, and now they're trying to bleed into the music industry.
The Rolling Loud stunt just felt so FORCED. The name-dropping was cringe, the matches were uneventful, the crowd didn't even care. They had the wrong people down there. Bianca and SP are cool and all, but them people came to see Lil Baby and shit, don't nobody wanna see Otis. Have Cena there, or Edge, or Rey Mysterio, somebody people might have heard of. Have a Raw vs. Smackdown match.
It could've been done better, but WWE doesn't care about the quality of the product, they only care about adding stunts like this to their sales pitch.
WWE won't care about quality or AEW until these media companies start being like "No thank you, we're more interested in working with AEW."
Once it becomes more popular to like AEW over WWE, that's when shit will get real to Vince. I think the acquiring of CM Punk and Danielson would be a catalyst to that, especially if Punk still feels a way and starts throwing shots.
Seem like Braun bout that bread. Punk and to a higher extent are about the matches and angles that are out there
Yeah, if Braun takes a paycut, I imagine he'd want a Lesnar/Goldberg deal where he only works a certain number of matches.
I wish Samoa Joe was the third man, I hate that HHH snatched him back.
any gcw links for tonights show ?
