CM Punk | AEW Unrestricted Podcast

[@TheRogueCobra]

What a time to be alive where CM Punk returns at basically the same time that Bryan Danielson comes in. Wrestling man.

[@JohnDuraSSB]

And a new Metroid game!

[@Tcrror]

Don't forget Adam Cole and Ruby Soho. With Cole being the most over guy in the company.

[@TheRogueCobra]

You are both correct!

[@TheNerdySportsGuy]

The greatest show that never really ends. Gotta love it

[@crowns9966]

It's crazy I didn't think CM Punk was gonna show up after the first All Out PPV and I'd have never guess I'd see Bryan Danielson vs Kenny Omega in front of a big crowd on TV, It's crazy ngl but it's great

[@TheNerdySportsGuy]

Only Punk can go from sincere to troll in a split second, and I love it: “Those are April’s lips, that means a lot. That’s a bowl of ramen, also means a lot, because I love ramen.” God Bless Phil Brooks

[@fitzgerald434]

I'm glad punk is happy again in wrestling

[@themaskedsmark6711]

CM Punk is 42 and in great shape. Has his passion back, and clearly has a great mind for the business. It's so exciting to me that if Punk wants, and if he keeps feeling good and enjoying what he's doing, we could have some YEARS of new CM Punk storylines and matches. Man, I'm just so damn happy for him. I know it's been said, but Danielson being 40 and Punk being 42... it's the same age as Hogan and Savage when they went to WCW. Pretty wild.

[@trustnoone3007]

40 in pro wrestling years is the new prime 30.

Brodie and the Hubers, Martha and the Harts, Punk, Sting, the Forbidden Door, and everything else. I hope the wrestling world truly appreciates that Tony Khan is a character you couldn't write in a movie because he's too good for this world. A billionaire wrestling fan with a mind for the business and a heart for the people in it. TK, from a fan who was about to lapse a second time, thank you.

[@brianammons6787]

Cena vs. Rock: Once in a lifetime brought a lot of people to Sunlife Stadium at WM28. The reason I travelled to Florida from North Carolina was CM Punk vs. Jericho. Now look where they both are all these years later. I know Tony has a heart for the business, but now he's starting to bring in minds who have been tenured. With people who know what works and what may not, Tony is building something absolutely priceless. I grew up right before the attitude era boomed, through the end of the Monday night wars, to WWE being the only thing in years, through BTE and All In adding a spark to light AEW into existence. It's all people as passionate as Tony about the business could ask for.

[@EdSmith313]

Punk's reaction to the Owen Hart news at the start of this was all of us when that press release went out. This is something that gives closure to Owen's fans, and comfort to Martha, Oje and Athena that they can still honor Owen's legacy, contribute it to their organization and still not have to deal with the folks in Connecticut at the same time. God bless to them and thank you, Tony Khan.

[@billblaski9523]

Definitely good news. But i just cant help but think that part of the reason Martha went to AEW was to stick it to Vince and WWE

[@EdSmith313]

@@billblaski9523 If you ask me, she has every right to. If not for them coming up with that stupid stunt in the first place, or miscommunication with the harness company and everything else in between, Owen would still be here today. She has every right to not only harbor resentment towards WWE, but also making sure that they don't ever get a chance to profit off of his name or likeness ever again when ultimately, they were culpable in his death when everything else is considered and looked at.

CM Punk's entrance at the United Center was one of the greatest pop that I have witnessed in professional wrestling! His pop was up there with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, The Rock, Eddie Guerrero walking down with the audience and to the ring as a World Champion, and the Road Warriors. I enjoyed every second of it, and he is in good hands with All Elite Wrestling!

[@Danielson1818]

It's pretty crazy. I really didn't want Punk in AEW, because I thought he was always going to have a bad attitude towards wrestling, and it would infect the roster. Turns out he's pretty much the happiest one to be back. Dude can't stop smiling, and he's doing everything he can to help the product. Even the commentary work is good.

[@Madferit91]

I only believed it when his faced was showed. Like even after Cult of Personality had been on for 30 seconds, all the titantrons were like "Best in the World" and "CM Punk" and even when the camera literally pointed at him walking down the ramp from a distance I still was like "is it really... is it him?".

Ya'know? I stopped watching wrestling in 2019. I had heard about AEW, but never really got interested... until the CM Punk return rumour came into me.

I'm so glad CM Punk returned and so many people are loving Professional Wrestling again. I really like how they brought back Punk and have used him. I think he's a great commentating personality and he's still got it in the ring. I really enjoy everything AEW is doing from top to bottom except one thing. I really wish they would stop forcing Derby Botchin down our throats. I get why there is a subculture that likes him, but I don't think he is anywhere near as big as the push that he's getting and can think of 10 wrestlers his age or younger I would rather watch or see get pushed. Not trying to hate... just back off. :spoiler: he was in 4 different segments this past dynamite. Anyway, to continue with the positive attitude of Punk. I love you all and I hope AEW, CM Punk and everyone involved continues to succeed, including Darby.

I had a cashier ask me the other day about CM Punk returning the other day. I said it was good for everyone --finally got people talking and interested again in wrestling...but that's far underselling the impact of the move. It created great emotion, great love for the sport, for the wrestlers, for the fans once again that has long been frozen beneath a winter snow of stagnant shows. The spark had started in 2019 with all the young good wrestlers who worked on good storytelling and ring psychology. These few years led to this explosion for the company. I always look forward to the Wednesday and Friday night shows. Each time they go off, I still want more. I like that feeling and I want it to continue.
