I don't know what to think about anything more. AEW should go wild west.

I guess the real question is how much of the AEW friction is a work? I don't know enough to be sure, but if he's not happy he can be a real pain in the ass.
If it was a work, it is strange that nothing else has been mentioned about Page, he has not been on the program, and nothing was mentioned about Page by the commentators (during the Punk match, or anywhere else).numbers wrote:I think Punk was working when he talked shit about Page, but I think the colt cabana stuff is real and there’s a clique within AEW that really resents Punk.

There is no logic in that, and according to all ITKs, there is no planned match between them. If one was planned, Punk makes a terrible weird promo on Hangman, then no one mentions anything in weeks?Mecca wrote:To build a match?Anders wrote:Nothing about it seems like a work really.

He got cheered more than Hangman in that feud.Mecca wrote:And while Punk gets the pops, he’s not a babyface. The best example is the build up to the Hangman match where he was clearly the heel; he kept using Hangman’s finisher as a taunt during the match
Miz built his career on calling out John Cena until eventually the fans demanded seeing him get beat up by Cena. Maybe not that extreme of a scenario, but getting the fans to want something is a good way to book yourself into a match whether its good for business or not.Anders wrote:There is no logic in that, and according to all ITKs, there is no planned match between them.

Mox vs Punk will be the main event next weekend.
The only person who has said there is no match planned is Meltzer, who is not a credible source with regards to AEW booking. If it wasn’t a work, why did the camera crew have the Hangman sign shots queued up before Punk said it?

I've listened to four podcasts, and read various news about it, none of whom thought it was a work.numbers wrote:The only person who has said there is no match planned is Meltzer, who is not a credible source with regards to AEW booking.

I dunno what to tell you, plenty of people think it was a work that I’ve seen, Punk himself said it was a work, and there are pieces of evidence like what I’ve already mentioned that indicate this is a work, including the fact that the company has been doing multiple worked shoots in the last 6 months.Anders wrote:I've listened to four podcasts, and read various news about it, none of whom thought it was a work.numbers wrote:The only person who has said there is no match planned is Meltzer, who is not a credible source with regards to AEW booking.

Hangman is from the area the show was at.
