Tony wants better ratings...still needs to air CM Punk footage...the wrong guy got "fired"

[@ruleroftheworld9]

James got it spot on... Punk is over in two companies now.

[@jayadams9561]

It’s a promo to get rating to 250,000 this week

[@TheCaptainSlappy]

It's a work. CM Punk pretty much explained it all in his interview. Khan "getting upset" is...just a work. What are the odds it's all a work in wrestling. Either way, both Phil & Tony make bank.

[@alanguages]

CM Punk on RAW vs CM Punk old footage on AEW. Tony must be thinking this will outdraw RAW somehow.

[@eastwaters4082]

@@TheCaptainSlappyif it shows Punk in a bad light getting a cheap shot, it makes him look further weak considering he tried out MMA and couldn’t hack it.

[@cipherpac]

​@eastwaters4082 which only gives McIntyre more fuel to cut amazing promos on Punk in their feud in another company.

[@digitalmarketinghumans]

@@TheCaptainSlappy Reminds me of the 'screw job' of Hart vs Michaels. I still think it's a work..or has been more fabricated than it should be. There was probably some aspects of truth to it. But that's what makes wrestling great. We may never truly know.

[@mattroxursoul]

WWE will film vignettes of CM Punk choking people on CCTV

[@joeywinters2968]

Omfg I hope to everything they do that 😂😂

[@thevillain4385]

That would actually be fucking hilarious.

[@chip.chippa6416]

This would be TV gold. But would give Khan the rub to instigate a war. Because he so desperately wants WWE to awknowledge him and his hobby.

[@mattroxursoul]

@@chip.chippa6416 But he would not get what he really wants in that case. Don't acknowledge AEW at all. Just film it and have fun. Tony thinks that this is going to make people hate Punk, I truly believe that. He thinks this is going to make AEW look better. But it is still going to be a midcard Nepo baby getting choked by a WWE star.

[@perceivedvelocity9914]

Tony is mad that Punk said that he was not a boss, but he was a nice guy. When Tony shows the back stage footage on TV he will still look like a terrible boss. This is a no win scenario for AEW. A terrible decision.

[@anthonyruiz2952]

AGREED

[@judahofjudea4601]

It happened and was stupid as hell, crowd was chanting for Punk from what people are saying. Good job at getting the other company's wrestler over instead of your own.

Why would you tune in to aew to watch it? If someone's going to eventually put it on KZbin 🤷😂

[@collinsal1433]

This is my exact sentiment. I don’t understand why they think people are going to tune in when you can go on social media literally five minutes after it airs and someone will post it

[@strnglhld]

Turns out they cut the footage from their KZbin video of it, and are copyright claiming Twitter uploads. They know they messed up lmao

[@TheBizouxxx]

awe needs the ratings

[@wingedhussar1453]

i dont understand the point of this footage being shown, we already know from both parties tht there was a fight and punk started the figth aftert being disrespected, whats th point of showing it

[@mikelachey824]

Tony along with others in AEW let this personal shill, Punk. Get in their heads. This is how this guy operates. You forget he made everyone think he was a victim storming out of WWE, because all the attention he got, was not enough. Its about Punk and nobody else. This guy has never genuinely been accountable for anything that has involved CM Punk. Tony's biggest problem in AEW is that he gets to close to the situation and cant seperate boss, pal, fan. Fire his ass and do what Jack did. Tell him, cry me a river. Let someone else pay your mounting medical expenses. Hell, firing him for that alone would be enough. This guy is a walking health insursance companies nightmare. LOL

[@icetrae91]

@@pantyraiderz6264 yea in the 90s when he was a performer not business man. i was team aew when they started up and was supporting them for awhile cause it was actually good and wwe was shit during these times with vince still not fully away... idk what happened but they both did a complete flip now wwe is back ontop and aew went to complete shit. honestly sad to see especially with all the talent they have but again it falls on the head people incharge, their all childish/dont know how to run a business. plus there more focused on stupid bs and having cool matches rather than actual storytelling and getting people invested... this is obviously cause mania week rather then showing clips of an incident from almost a year ago they shouldve put an A+ show together but instead choose to go the petty route cause their big draw "punk" aint there and want to shit on his moment

[@Mamashmeeky]

Would still rather watch blood sweat and tears instead of a couple of grown men shedding tears hugging it out in the ring for an hour long

[@Paul-se4wc]

​​@@pantyraiderz6264 hhh also changed. People love working with him now. Even cm punk seems to have changed . My attitude is just make your money and move on. Can't earn money if you can't get along

Adults who are into sex trafficking and shitting in people's bag, oh and pretending to have sex with a dead body on TV. Oh, and making a rapist into a good guy. Go wwe!

[@jamesz1520]

I am purposely not gonna watch it because it is just Khan way to get a rating. Which is basically what Punk said about it. So even if the footage isn’t what Punk said they are still proving him right about showing it.

[@TheFlamingPike]

Real footage or parody, it will make them look petty. For a group of people who didn't care about CM Punk's interview ( according to the few wrestlers who voiced their opinion on the matter, at least ), they sure as hell are triggered. Sucks to say but AEW is not slowly declining ( that was in 2023 ), it is now slipping down the slope. The fall is coming very soon, unless they change their ways. Punk's interview should be a wake up call, not a call to arms... Seeing Adam Copeland responding to things he didn't even experience since he wasn't even there felt embarassing for him and for Tony Khan who clearly didn't have the guts to make his own statement himself.

[@Landofnothing]

I thought Sly was LA Knight at first lol

[@WunHitWonder]

It's a bad idea unless it's a bait and switch. The quote from TK said it is real footage. Not that it is the actual footage that happened. So it could be a sketch comedy thing. But either way, they should have moved passed it. The glass man is in WWE now being a glass man there.

[@freddiejohnson6137]

People were saying the Bucks would do things to try and undermine Punk and make him look bad in AEW. Regardless of what is in this footage all it will do is prove how petty they are for doing it publicly. They want to make him look bad and effect what he is doing elsewhere. Which it will probably make zero difference except for how people perceive them. Wrestling seems to be the only form of entertainment where doing this kind of thing is deemed acceptable by those working there and a portion of the fanbase. They should concentrate on themselves and not dedicate time to what a former employee is saying. They never should have had Edge come out last week either.

[@keithBBR-1]

Yes this could back-fire on AEW ratings wise but everyone will see though.

[@gregsmate1]

Drew McIntyre stands to gain the most from this

[@mikecameron2151]

I would be surprised that they could release footage of Security cameras in Wembley Stadium without getting permission from Wembley Stadium.Why would you risk getting them offside in terms of future shows at Wembley

[@systerkeno]

Everyone who performs at Wembley Stadium can file to have the video sent to them. It's nothing new and they already have permission to do that from the contract for the show.

[@ishmael802]

Because Shad Khan was about to buy Wembly Stadium for 800 million to host Jaguars games for their potential move t London. Wembly doesn’t care. They love The Khans and hope he buys the stadium in the future.

[@ishmael802]

Wembley doesn’t care. They love The Khans specifically Shad Khan because he was about to buy Wembly for $800 million. So Wembly wants to keep that relationship strong.

[@anibalsantos-maldonado582]

Pretty accurate

[@LastSunrise1981]

They would have shown the footage already if Punk was lying.

[@maddiedawerido2359]

I would have just leaked it instead.

[@lee.valley]

😂😂😂 that was classic

[@davidgraham8299]

I expect this is just going to be a skit by the young bucks. I doubt aew can legally use film involving Punk given that he's contracted to wwe.

[@tullyDT]

Of course they can. He was at their event he was under cintract at time. By that logic they can't use old footage of his matches ftom when he was under contract

[@papoblu99]

Also, did you think that Tony should be listening to triple h at his his press? Because he's saying everything that he's doing to have good shows 😶👀

[@Bulletno]

It is still Tony's faults. He needs to act like a real boss ffs. And the SoCal kliq will always sabotage the company bcos they don't know how to get over properly.

[@darkmessiah1883]

Tony Khan has himself, Jungle Joke and the Young Entitled to blame for costing them CM Punk, zero sympathy from me like I said before they're turning into baby WCW and talent is jumping ship and swimming for other promotions.

[@Donald_Allan]

I think it does more damage to AEW as it will take more focus off AEW and the talent who are there.

[@michaelaburns734]

@@Donald_Allan I think both. Because CM Punk was a hypocrite drama queen. He was again WWE in 2011 to his staff infection, and he was against AEW with The All Out Fallout. He is a drama queen.

[@Donald_Allan]

@@michaelaburns734 I disagree. I think Tony Khan should spend more time focusing on his own product and putting a focus on the talent and the matches that his talent have instead of focusing on another company or someone who is no longer working for them. Instead this is just going to take the focus off of AEW which is a shame. Surely you would agree the time could be better spent highlighting and showcasing the talent on the AEW and ROH rosters.

[@michaelaburns734]

@@Donald_Allan Yeah I agree with that part. Toxic on both ends is not a good thing for AEW and WWE. I made my mind up and I am trying to focus on match-ups that are interesting. You know where I was viewing when The Roman Reigns Agenda was after Hell in a Cell that year? I was over at The Tokyo Dome for Wrestle Kingdoms watching Okada and Omega series have banger after banger 4 matches that rekindle my love for the sport. That was my actual favorite before AEW.

[@sbz88]

WWE doesn't care 😂. Unless the footage shows Punk destroying equipment and physically assaulting employees backstage, which it doesn't, they're not gonna pay it any mind.

[@tomvallejo2438]

Well cm punk started this stuff by opening his mouth and everyone said since cm punk said this it must be true but now aew wants to defend itself from punk’s accusations and all the wwe fans and wwe former wrestlers are oissed for aew wanting to do this double standard when it comes to wwe!

[@Drexel344]

Correction, this all started w/ Hangman Adam Page going into business for himself on national television, due to a false rumor of Punk getting Colt Cobana fired, which by the way, never happened. Then, the Bucks & their crew started & maintained a hit campaign against Punk for over a year & a half to the dirt sheets trying to assassinate his character. Punk was asked questions & finally gave his side for the 1st time & they're mad he decided to defend himself in that interview after all the shots they threw at him. Can't have it both ways. If anything, Punk has been vindicated.

[@manoshs5323]

If it proves that CM Punk was lying then it is a good move as its evidence. If its a parody or highly edited version then its a mistake.

[@freddiejohnson6137]

So he gets free publicity on a show he is no longer on and it makes them look petty for focusing on it and using TV time to address it rather than doing something that actually gets people invested.

[@manoshs5323]

@@freddiejohnson6137 it’s not publicity . It’s about tellingAEWs side . They wouldn’t do this if it wasn’t evidence

[@jblassio]

Why are people being CM Punk marks? The video clearly shows Phil put his hands on Jack Perry. There is no excuse for that. Tony Khan did the right thing by firing him. I probably would have not shown the footage, but I think that it does vindicate AEW as far as who was the problem.

[@mikelachey824]

Well, when Punk just wont shut up, maybe this is a way to show that there was a reason for his termination. Its kinda pointless, because AEW fans are not bothered by that cancer being released and WWE fans are just going to back Punk, even though they are the ones that laughed at AEW and called this guy a cancer, before he signed back with WWE as their cult leader again.

This is true but aew catered to those toxic fans. There motto was f the fed they actively attracted those fans and tried to create negative press for wwe and aew did get alot of those toxic fans seeing as the aew product isn't actually any good it was just a matter of time before those fans turned on aew. Ps nobody was hating on wwe a year ago since its been hot it was in 2017-2019. Aew has been getting bashed for about 3 years now

[@jg_ab8233]

I think it's funny how E Stans think Trips doesn't think about Aew when he couldn't help but throw a jab at Ospreay during Mania week. The work Trips is talking about is he wants guys who brown nose like he and the Kliq did when they were performers. Punk should've said nothing about the incident. He's in business for himself and no one else. Wwe only signed him because of what happened in Aew. They could have easily signed him when he was doing Wwe backstage but didn't because there was no value there, they only signed him to spite Aew, but the marks don't see that.
