i’d like to think Taz singing “like Mussolini!” was a shout out to Jim 😂
With extra cheese.
@@DespicablepunK25 Pickles, onions,if you please!
Taz actually sang that on commentary? That's definitely a shout to Corny.
@@johnporter9073 yeah 😂
so naïve.
Frankly the mixed reactions are a sign of hope. Shows there's plenty in the AEW audience who aren't the low IQ followers who look at a guy who said he'd fire 80% of the roster and go "no the other guy is the cancer"
Who said that?
@@randylahey8101 It was Omega some time ago, and when it got out he tried to pass it off as a joke. Somewhere someone said he was looking at Will Ospreay when he said it. Whether that's true I don't know.
Thank guys
Finally! Been excited for this.
Look in my eyes, what do you see? No motherfucking EVP's!
ahahaha, nice!
😂😂😂😂😂great one
Best one yet. Lol
Actually I want him to say this to their faces😂
Now let's see if punk is a draw or not
"He's had pussy before, hate him" Cornette never fails to make me laugh.
That's how Sammy became a heel! When he had the homely girl. People still liked him. When he dumped her and got with Tay Melo oh man heel!!! Booo!!! How dare you have a smoking hot chick to have sex with.
LOL Is AEW's fanbase a bunch of neckbeard weeaboo incels or something?
the realest thing ever said
hahaha 🤣🤣
That took me out 😂
Cody had said in an interview with Ariel Helwani that he wanted AEW to be more Crockett and old school while the other useless EVPs wanted it to be like PWG. It would be really interesting to see if AEW Collision turns into an exciting show with real pro rasslers and Tony lets The Bucks and their friends play on Dynamite. This would be a great way to settle the modern play wrestling vs old school wrestling debate once and for all.
Exactly. I don't hate the Bucks or Kenny. Let them do their own thing on Dynamite.
@@jwnj9716nope
Nice comment and I agree
I don’t nor have I EVER seen this as “modern play wrestling vs old school wrestling” I see this as GOOD Wrestling and Bad wrestling. A good match gets you interested in it. IE Steamboat and Savage at Mania Three. There is a list of these matches. Good matches happen in many eras and we’re done by the people capable of having them. Then there is the dumpster fire that is AEW and the trash that is modern WWE.
Yeah Cody wants to be more Crockett than PWG until you realize he does his finish 6 times every match.
I'm so grateful that Jim acknowledges how in-fucking-significant colt cabana is
Swear to god, the only time any ever thinks about him is when CM Punks name is mentioned. Feel kinda bad for Colt in that regard. Must suck only being relevent because the guy you hate is talking.
@@SharkSprayYTP I don't even care about any of that. I just get mad he ever got to be on tv, I hate that I know who he even is as far as wrestling goes simply because he's so bad at it. I hate seeing his matches
ironic, many people including me knew him because of punk's pipe bomb
I'm not being facetious when I say that if Colt Cabana walked past me right now, I wouldn't recognize him.
It's hilarious that they're still pretending that it was an outrage that he was getting paid to do nothing.
"Look on my plate. What do you see ? The Cult of Meat with Extra Cheese" - Jim Cornette
“Extra pickles, if you please!”
"I hope the bun has sesame seeeeeaaads! Woaaaahh, it's the cult of meat with extra cheese!"
It's not just the EVPs. Jericho was the one who uttered the HR magic words "cancer." Think how much different it would be if Jericho tried to bring the sides together.
As much as Jim wants to make it about his nemesises, all signs point to Jericho being the one who has stirred up all the shit in recent months.
Jericho had the meeting with punk that seemed to be a turning point. Twitter isn’t real. At the end of the day the Ocho knows this business.
@@BB-ed4om spoken like a true fan boy.. tell your Ocho to stop being a vampire and draining everyone's buzz.
Jerchio doesn’t want to lose his spot to punk.
He got tired of bringing sides together when his belts quit fitting
Jim is so on point about CM Punk. I'm glad he said it.
It was well said!
It’s amazing to listen to how fast Jim can put an angle together on the spot given circumstances. That’s one reason I love listening to him. He can take any situation and come up with something to make money/sell tickets. And the way he describes shit is hilarious. I’ve never heard someone use swear words so effectively that they come across as normal hahaha
All the old guys are like that, it's why wrestling used to work.
Everyone on the lookout for an opportunity to create an angle they can sell tickets off the back of.
They never stopped working, in public they acted as they were seen on TV.
Because wrestlings isn’t hard, people used to want make money and sell out shows. Now guys want to play wrestler without learning what makes the business successful
@@M-E_123 That's also why MJF has been so successful!!
All three of you guys are correct. They had to keep coming up with ideas because they weren’t on guaranteed contracts like they are now. They made money based on how you drew. Today, they get a paycheck regardless, which is why you see so much “laaaaaazy booking”. That also has to do with the clowns these days thinking they know everything about the business so they don’t listen to the ones that do know how to draw money, how to have a match that people want to watch, so why have a Booker if they’re just gonna do whatever the fuck they want to do anyway? It’s about getting their shit in even if it makes no sense.
There was one episode where he cut a promo on the fly then was like “thats what you should of said” and it was a better promo then ive heard cut on tv in years
I was at the San Diego show. Definitely a mixed reaction but it was fairly positive and mainly just a lot of “CM PUNK” chants.
Jackin' it Jackin' it Jackin' it!
do you think he'll be like Cody and fight the fans' reactions or will he play into it?
Punk chants are the official virgin/single call
I was too. F Section was booing like crazy lmao
I was there too row 4
Someone needs to make a "thanks guys" meme immediately
0:37😂😂
Put his head on homlander while he uses laser eyes on the crowd as says thanks guys
Why don't you do it?
The nicknames Jim gives to the EVP's will never get old...
Disco and konnan have a recent clip regarding most of the nicknames.... For the content
Its not often I either spit out my coffee or food, but when Jim said Takeashit I sprayed my phone with orange juice. True story.
"Ishii iiiiiiii" kills me every time
@@tysontomko yes best nickname ever lol
@@tysontomko I love that one. I still listen to old videos with ishiiiii in them. Just for the laughs.
I genuinely missed getting to hear Jim scream "LIEEK MUSSOLINI!!!"
Been craving it!
You & me both!
It's about Fucking Time they announced CM Punk's return to AEW i bet Dave Meltzer and bryan Alvarez are Pissed by this news since they were spreading lies and fake news about him.
It's like what Corny said, "Tony the Kid" just likes "Shiny Happy People"
@@williammitchell4417 I Agree 100%
they're putting all content behind a paywall so they need the money now that the smear campaign didn't work lmao
Alvarez is still so salty that Punk bedded Maria before he could even muster up the courage to ask her out. Punk is a chick magnet.
@@TheMrAlgoh LMAO Good One 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You know what's funny? Colt Cabana hasn't made any appearances, outside of that bone Jericho threw him. So who's to blame for him not being on the show now?
the twitter marks will say it's because he's a producer now lmao
@@KC-vx5wo lol right!
Even Brandon Cutlet gets more screen time than Colt.
@TheMrAlgoh of course cutler does. He is best mates with the bucks. He shouldn't even have a fuxking job at aew.
I mean a mixed reaction never hurt john cenas drawing ability and merchandising sales so it will be pretty damn entertaining
WWE also has double the audience which consists of women and children. AEW’s main demo is the “smart” crowd of 18-34 year old men. Parents buy their kids John Cena merch. Idk many parents that are letting their 9 year olds watch AEW
@@SlutBurgerWithCheese yeah I know. But that doesn't mean smart fans won't buy his stuff. Also not every fan of the elite is childish either. You can be a fan of someone and not be sycophantic and recognize flaws and shit.
Also I'm 31 years old, I personally enjoy mixed reactions because nothing is ever black and white so fans should like whomever they want.
That's exactly what I was thinking 😂
John Cena is a significantly bigger star than Punk will ever be.
Brian Last has the best impressions! Spot on Excalibur, Moxley, and TK. “Thanks guys” had me dying.
Rocky 5
@@zlinedavid Yeah
“If I had Tony’s legal team I’d be in jail for the Manson murders” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 thank you Jim for reminding me every week why I tune in to the podcast & then rewatch the clips on RUclips
I wonder if people who believed on the Colt Cabana story realized that Punk was out for 9 months and Cabana appeared once on the show and disappeared once again😂
I’ll eat your socks and mine if someone can name his last 5 matches in aew without asking google
Hope Jim reacts to unka Dave giving Assholes in the Asylum 5 stars 😂
But of course he did...it had Kenny Olivier in it.
lool you people still give that man power
Dave has another 4 years left anyway and then alverez is gonna work at a coffee shop, we gotta be patient
that line at the end by Brian referring to the Elite as the Mudline was outstanding
you're late mate, they've been the Mudline for about 4-5 months
Let's face it: End of the day, he agrees with Punk that Omega and the Bucks need to be immediately fired.
He's been referring to them by that alias for a while now. It's a neat derogatory insult.
@@asasphinx I think it's beyond that. It's one of the reasons some people think Corny would go to AEW for a few weeks to work with Punk specifically.
Uncle Dave and his stooge Alvarez also share a big portion of the blame for part of the fans turning on Punk.
The fans that turn on punk are the elite fans same fans that where at full gear PPV chanting F**k CM Punk in a PPV he wasn't announced to be but the elite were. Those fans can stay on Wednesday with their spotfest.
It's a combination. Punk is also an asshole, albeit an entertaining one
@@the-ish-1_21 fucking exactly
@@the-ish-1_21 No fans who turned on Punk are the fans who didn’t like how Punk conducted himself in the media scrum also AEW fanbase will always be more Pro Elite then they are Pro Punk
Uncle dave and alverez should be bought to the streets and mugged, cause that's what they did to punk
I would love to see Punk appear and convince BCC to turn on Mox by reminding them that they’re wrestlers not death match guys. Then Punk can lead BCC and they can have a long run on collision.
second coming of second city saints 😅
thats not a bad idea actually. Face punk is just lame at this point
If they bring in someone to destroy BCC from within, it should be Avery Good/Dasher Hatfield. Since then you can do a clean split where Avery convinces Chikara alumni Wheeler and Claudio to turn on Bryan and Mox, while bringing Eddie Kingston back due to the Claudio betrayal to aid Mox and Bryan.
BCC is Jon Moxleys baby, i don't see that happening.
Punk has already been there done that with the Nexus faction
"He's had pussy before, fuck him!" That had me in tears. Hilarious.
The more you think on it, the funnier it gets
There's no way TK doesn't screw up Collision too.
He's already said Pockets will be on the show.
Guess what he already has with punk returning
So Pockets is gonna be on every show? JFC!
@@BobbyMeans383 dunce
Not sure but I think all Champions will be on both shows
Pockets does good ratings if I recall correctly.
“If I had Tony Khan’s legal brain trust representing me right now, I’d be in prison for the Manson murders!”😂. Corny you’re a national treasure
I've never been a big Omega fan, but you do get the feeling from notes here and there that when it comes to the EVPs, he is the adult in the room
If he was the adult in the room he wouldn't have made fun of punk in the most childish way possible after their suspension.
Plus there's him wrestling with a girl and a sex doll.
Not so much "adult", as much as "least childish".
*Thanks guys* 💀
The only reason why I want CM Punk to return is to hear Jim Cornette say *LIKE MUSSOLINI* whenever Punk is on TV.
Yes! That make it worth!
Taz said it right after Tony announced it LIKE MUSSOLINI 😅
I want punk to come on the podcast with cornette and brian.
@@alphatoddio Taz trying to be Jim or was told to by Tony to make Jim reference! Jim leaves rent free in AEW minds after all!
I can see "lets go CM , CM sucks" chants breaking out. CM might have finally hit Cena level.
Cena level is a top superstar known in the mainstream which is hard to reach
😂😂😂
@@yusufgazi7 ye John Cena is huge. I've been a punk fan since '07 but there is no topping Cenation
@@MrToken98 what? I swear, more people know who Punk is, than who Cena is. Well at least in my little city somewhere in Europe 😂
cena main evented manias tho so never hahaha
Brian is gonna love the regular return of Jim's "LIKEEEE MUSSOLINIIII!!' 😅
We finally got 2 different shows. AEW Collision for Pro Wrestling technicality and grounded storylines, while Dynamite is for the fun stuff and for fans to indulge in despite of how silly it could be sometimes.
what a reasonable and level headed take, am i in the right comment section? lmao
Silly is an understatement
Let's wait and see what this new shows like first - still going to be Tony booking.
Pockets is on collision, though.
Yeah, I am interested to see the roster for Collision. I expect FTR, ThunderRosa and alot of the other outcasts who were not in the EVP clique to be there. Its going to be interesting if that group on a Saturday starts to outdraw Dynamite on a Wednesday.
I love how he did a pre tape for this announcement and still talked like a robot.
Thanks guys!
If Tony blinks he misses it ha
Tony is the worst person in wrestling
On the Fite airing you can hear the live mic of him practicing
@@paladyniusello hyperbole. really the worst person? Not the ones who liked raped people? Or stiffed wrestlers out of money? Or talk shit about random people that have never actually wronged him just to get clout?
The elite really do suck
Honestly hoping it's Punk and Omega at the next ppv. Matty and Nicky can kick rocks but Punk and Omega could have a match. It'd be one of AEW's most anticipated matches ever for sure. Winner of Punk/Omega goes into a program with MJF with the other being the 3rd party in the situation.
They don’t mesh well. Kenny has the back and forth matches with no selling and high spots. CM punk is an actual wrestler, it wouldn’t work unless punk calls every minute of it.
Lol, no. Neither can wrestle for shit.
Punk/Omega would genuinely be good imo.
Omega's been such a tremendous waste there since Punk debuted, which is when I started watching AEW. Don't know what he was like before then. Yes, he's been injured for a lot of it... but here's a guy that can actually have a singles match and is/can be a legit singles star in a company that's begging for singles stars if the 4 pillars angle is anything to go by, and they're tying him up in trios matches that nobody cares about and multi-man garbage wrestling matches. Or, even more frightening, this is something that he actually wants to do and it's his call to not be a draw for his own company to instead play in the sandbox with the children.
kenny wants to play with Takeashit , so for now no chance
I can't wait for Collision to get better ratings than Dynamite.
It doesn't matter if Punk comes back or not, if TK doesn't implement some type of leadership in that company then Collision is just going to turn out looking like the second hour of Rampage. Rampage started out strong with some good matches too, now, despite the enormous roster, we get Kip Sabian, Emi Sakura and Nyla Rose.
Collision creative will be Punk, Danielson, and Ace Steel supposedly, with TK's oversight but not as involved as he is with Dynamite.
@@KC-vx5wo cause giving wrestlers creative control has always worked out 🙄
Some people were saying “Boo-urns”
More time passes more we see how right CM Punk was bout EVERYTHINGGGGGG
Yeah it's everyone's fault but the disgruntled old guy right.
@@SasukesSharingan.the show literally sucks without him
@@BobPhD_the Bucks returned for their big Trios series and I never cared less about a Feud. So I'd have to agree.
And still came off like just as much of a childish asshole as the EVP'S, funny how that works.
Punk is bitter and petty but I’d take that over these pwi pig liars
Like Mussolini!
🎵With Extra Cheese…🎶
The cult of meat with extra cheese!
Now it's finally time for the CM Punk heel run.Just imagine what he could do especially with this issue with the Buckeroos, Kenny Olivier and the Kuga Manga Clan!!
They aren't real stars. Besides, the company needs an actual babyface and a legitimate opponent for MJF, who's languishing going up against a bunch of glorified middle-schoolers
@@apostolostvable amen! Laaaazyyyy booking too
@@apostolostvable I get what you're saying.However some of the AEW crowd will not see Punk as a babyface,but him against MJF definitely needs to happen again.
Unfortunately as others have said, AEW needs a big time babyface to challenge MJF and Punk is the only person in that company that could do that
Punk can easily turn this is '97 Bret Hart.
But that only works if WWE wants to bring Punk back, unless you’re just fl referring to Punk being a heel in every city except Chicago.
Exactly
He should be himself, enough with the cosplay
The problem with having to use Punk as a tweener is that most of the card never commits to being faces or heels either.
cause wrestling is fucking stupid.
Brian Last your Tony Khan impression nearly made me piss myself 😂😂😂😂😂
I haven’t watched AEW since feb or Jan, C.M Punk must return or there cooked.
Cornette is right, the reason the crowd is turned on Punk is their BS. They crushed their biggest star. So stupid…
It was so selfish of them to stand there and get attacked by Punk and Ace
“The biggest star is Jon Moxley” 😂😂
nope, we never wanted that overrated diva in aew to begin with.
@@Station_AI This is the kind of low IQ take I come to expect from AEW fanboys. Can you at least admit that all of this happened because the elite were leaking things to Meltzer about Punk that weren't true? Khan even admitted that Punk had nothing to do with Colt not being on tv.
Jon Moxley sucks!!
I started watching AEW before Punk and saw massive potential in the show, im a huge Punk fan and he completely had me hooked on tuning in week in week out and ultimately started enjoying the other stars like MJF, Hobbs, Darby, Miro, Andrade etc hell even Hangman until all this chaos after all out. Since Punk got screwed by the 'evps' the show has literally been held on MJFs back because the rest of the show isnt worth watching. Youd think us fan's would be a little more excited to see Punk come back, personally im a little excited but you know Tony will drop the ball and not book the angles that make the most sense, just like theyve buried their best babyface. I dont understand how all of the 'big stars' dont sell anything in the ring, its glaringly obvious to us fans. The show without people like Punk & MJF is night and day.
Cm Punk in the most full circle moment is at a “let’s go Cm Punk, Cm Sucks” MJF called Punk cena in that one promo and now he’s at that point
hes become what he has always hated. what an accomplishment.
@@trtlcap1501 he never hated it he actually liked cena that whole feud lol it’s just in Kayfabe full circle lol
Punk is an amazing heel. Would also be cool if he came out to “This Fire Burns” as his theme
That would be a true heel move, because it's not really a song that fans can sing along to
They really need punk
🥈
@@Chaz4543 really age is that important Roman is 38 kenny is 39 and seth is 37 punk ain't that old
@@Chaz4543 yes they do. Sonic boom
At this point I'm willing to believe that all punk really did was defend himself
That’s all it ever was 😂
Well yeah, not only did they bum rush into his locker, they have been the only sources leaking info about all of this. It's been completely one sided, and people ran with it
I bet.. but if punk doesn't do what he did at the media scrum.. the fight never happens... idgaf about the elite but I'm not a punk mark like Jim and his cult... but it's not like the elite just went at punk for no reason... punk had every right to defend himself but he's the reason all of the stuff happened
@@tonyruby4467 why did they bum rush into his locker room tho... just cuz they were bored with nothing else to do? 😂😂
@@DynastyIcon because they got riled up over words. If you're an executive of a company, and someone under you calls you out, you set up a meeting to hash things out. Plus let's not act like that outburst was random. They was passive aggressively fucking with that man for a minute.
You know this will lead to a Punk "Pipebomb", and I'm all for that. A heel turn too.
He needs to do an anti-AEW angle. He can start pretending to do high risk moves only to piss the crowd off and do nothing, pipe bombs on the EVP'S, THE COMPANY, AND THE FANS. Tony puts him in a match with someone like Jungle Boy and he just doesn't show to the ring. Does promos with JR where he does kind of the Austin at home thing. The payoff is when he finally DOES have a match ppl are gonna be so fired up that he is now special. I would love to see that. Always talking about "Going back up North". Comes out during an EVP's match and gets on commentary and makes it all about him. How great would that be? And of course make him "Sell out Punk".
@@coreyhall1150 basically another worked shoot like the 2011 one? Another rant against the company and fans? Great
@@ITSHIM1294 Yeah BUT A MILLION TIMES BETTER AND EDGIER.
@@ITSHIM1294 WWE watered that shit down dude...... Punk doing it in WWE was strictly to draw money. The DOFFERENCE THIS TIME is he actually HAS SOMETHING to bitch about. Making you AEW dummies the heel will be EASY. Cause ACTUAL wrestling fans don't like y'all or your product anyway. Punk doing this can get eyes on the company while at the same time bringing back the old fans because if Punk turns into "Sell out" Punk he could do WONDERS with something like that. He would be funny as all hell probably.
@@ITSHIM1294 In WWE he was coming from a place of being the underdog and being held down. In AEW he can come from a place of "I am a fucking star and this jackass mark owner and his EVP's hate me for being so so I tell u what I am gonna do. I can make or break this company and what I decided to do was BREAK YOU. I will break these fucking fans I will PISS ON AEW and you fans will LOVE ME FOR IT." That would be a great way to make MJF a face too. Cause when they finish their rivalry it can be "Noone is a challenge for me or a threat to me in this company EXCEPT MJF. And now I am going to destroy MJF. MJF represents hope, the future of this company. And I am gonna break him cause he represents what AEW is supposed to be" and of course MJF goes over he could REALLY launch MJF as a LEGIT STAR with that angle. I'm tellin ya.
Punk needs to be the rebel he was before he left WWE that solidified him as a star
nothing says rebellion like supporting the establishment. remember to kill your unborn babies.
You mean still stuck in his summer 2011 phase?
Though that the industry needs another big company to house a lot of talent I feel that within five years aew will be will cease to be. And I know Tony will be too stubborn to sell it to anyone else.
Why do you say this? The new multi year tv deal? Or the recent temporary decline in ticket sales? They’re going to ebb and flow but I don’t think they’re going anywhere.
@@BB-ed4om What multi year tv deal? I've seen no reports on that other than rumors
Thanks, Guys. Tony with a "Big Announcement' that actually matters. He needs CM Punk, Punk doesn't need him. Of course, it got very mixed reactions, but had he not had Punk show up in Chicago for Collision things would have been far worse. Of course notice since the announcement, The Elite and JeriKaren have been pretty quiet. I guess they are either scared to do anything else now that he is back or trying to find some way to undermine this. Even more so with the report that Punk and Ace Steel have creative control on the Collision show.
Jericho made "peace" with Punk for political reasons and it seems Tony has shut the Elite up by allowing them by allowing Elite a feud with the BCC where the BCC are being set up as king satan that the Bucks/Omega/Page will defeat flawless victory.
Brian’s “thanks guys” has me laughing hard lololol
I absolutely LOVE Punk's work as a heel, and it would definitely play great with the mixed reactions he's getting. But I feel like there's already too many heels in AEW, and not that many tangible babyfaces. Aside from maybe Darby, Ricky Starks and Adam Cole, I don't see any babyface singles that could pull people in near the same level as Punk. They really dug themselves in a hole.
True that being said, will Punks announcement bring back some of the fans that left when he did? because lets be real, the only people turning up to these events now are elite marks. I can see chicago loving it, just have to see in canada what the crowd is like. maybe Punk uses the chicago crowd and a live mic to return to being a face, maybe he heels it up. who knows?
@@SharkSprayYTP I haven’t watched since the hilarious media scrum but hearing punk is back means I’ll be tuning in 100%
There's a difference between proper heels people love to hate and unlikeable d*cks who don't know how to be a face.
The thing is with AEW fans is they can’t decide if they like or hate punk and decide which flavor of the month they want based on Twitter. At least with MJF he acknowledged that wrestling fans don’t give a fuck about the talent and said fuck em
@@villiannewyork then why are is he on tv?
Nothing like throwing money at a problem and hoping it will go away.
think positive bro
@@Didhewin Russo?
I'm sure Tony was raised that way so it's the only way he knows to deal with problems
Never get bored of Jim tearing into Tony and his EVPs. He clearly has some inside info from Punk s side hence why he is so strongly for his guy.
Finally the champ is coming back. I can finally watch AEW again… only Collision lol
You never stopped. Because you know that's where the quality is.
This was probably one the funniest Jim Cornette rants in a while. 🤣
Its funny people bring up punks age so much meanwhile they pretend that roman and kenny aren't 38
Roman and Kenny are 38 but you can’t tell. With Kenny, he’s got more consistency than Punk as far as wrestling every day and with Roman, his move set isn’t too physically demanding anyway. What makes his thing work is the story being told. Punk had seven years of ring rust to deal with.
@@VickStarkiller 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@VickStarkiller all you did was literally say the truth and he replied with laughing emojis?
Apparently Ace Steel and CM Punk are booking all the big angles and main event stuff on Collision. If true, I'm excited! This could be a real wrestling show!
hahaha! ok.
Watching it live the second Tony said CM Punk I literally said out loud "thankgodalgoddamnmighty" hahaha. This is the best news they've had in a while and will put a lot of the bs and drama to rest.
Their RUclips channel keeps editing out the THANKS GUYS 😂
Pro wrestling as a whole needs CM Punk back.
Lmao, go ahead explain
@@SlutBurgerWithCheese I don't think I will.
Sure
I'd argue that Tony has disrespected Punk more than Vince.
At least Vince made him a star, millionaire WWE champ for 434 days…
Let's be honest. CM Punk as a heel is the BEST or anti Hero Punk, when Punk called that one audience member a virgin. That was a preview of the heel Punk. That's what we need. The gee shucks golly I'm so happy to be here. I love you guys.
If Punk did a version of Bret Hart's anti-America spiel but it was targeted at the fans of the shitty gymnast wrestlers, it would be gold. He could essentially just say what Cornette has been saying for years now. Throw FTR and some younger wrestlers with him and you'll have a star making machine. I desperately want Hobbs and Starks to be as close to Punk as possible. Those two could be amazing with the right guidance.
@@jthom0027 true, but they have so much talent there that gets wasted or misused, guys like Christian and Jericho still have a lot to offer, and Kenny omega is over as a singles competitor no matter how much Jim hates him, mjf is another star, fTR etc. they have the talent. It’s about the rightful use. They need a real Booker. Someone that understands the business. Also eventually they are gonna have to do cm punk vs Kenny omega. That’s the biggest match they can make, I can understand them not wanting to give it away immediately, but eventually when the time is right Kenny omega vs cm punk will be the biggest match to make in AEW history,
Have punk, big show, mark henry, and arn run saturday night and I'll damn sure watch it!
Can you imagine it? The experienced vets running and training the new guys who want to get over it will be great.
Oh and i imagine starks will be on that show.
hahah! because theyve been used soooo great so far right?
CM Punk and MJF are AEW's two most valuable assets. If they leave, huge hit.
a profound statement. i never would have though.
Jim cornette is the one true voice of wrestling that speaks the truth and knows his stuff and if anybody needs to listen to Jim cornette and away direction aew should go is Tony card they should hire Jim cornette immediately and CM punk Jim cornette has always been dead right about CM punk and the value of the asset the a&w has of CM punk CM punk is a TW which I hope it turns out good for her because I know CM punk from WWE is the true Superstar mjf at that level yet but CM punk's been at that level for years
Was it intentional to give CM Punk the most blasé, underbaked announcement return ever?
How about a video hype package or Punk himself cutting promo via video?
Jim's brain is impressive the amount of hilarious jokes especially the long ones with the big setups. Amazing its like Niagara falls
AEW is just 2010s WWE. They got Daniel Bryan, Dean Ambrose, Rusev, Cesaro, Samoa Joe, and now they got the CM Punk chants
AEW needs Punk more than Punk needs AEW. That roster is still dog shit but with Punk on top it looks more palatable.
and its win for wrestling fans right ?
I’m shocked the hardly boys and Dave Smeltzer didn’t put out a hit on Cm Punk
They did, Jeff was on the way to pay the guy and stopped for a drink or seven and blew the cash on coke and pills

This was a pretty lackluster announcement for what should have been a BIGGER deal. Now I wonder if aew should have kept it a mystery like last time.
He could've used the announcement at the ppv last weekend & build up to it.
Was it actually a surprise last time?
Why does cornette act like Punk is some kind of badass? What am I missing?
20 min video for a segment that lasted like 60 seconds max? 🤦🏽
Cool. You have no attention span, we got it.
On a side note. How did we go from TV commercials of don't do drugs to now I am getting weed ads and THC gummies lol.
I wonder if the young bucks will get a dark side of the ring type documentary. I hope so
What is the dark part? That they paved way for wrestlers to have a 2nd major promotion in US? Or that a muffinneating guy who gets injured every 2nd week came to piss all over that promotion? 🤨
@@Bahador.B listen I get you’re a fan, but I’m not reading all that bs.
@@Thelasthoebender If reading 5 lines is a task, I think Burger King is above you for a place to work at.
@@Bahador.Bhe was right though lmao 🤣 I was better off not reading that.
There is a roster split cause a brawl thats crazy
i love how Jim cuts the best promos in the business without even doing a promo lmao
Saturdays during the summer........terrible time to start a new wrestling show.
Ikr. And Tony Khan was bitching about some WWE ppv on Saturdays. All that bitching and whinnying for nothing.
You act like wrestling has never been on Saturday television during the summer before.
@@AxHakker yes it has when it was one of the most popular things in town. Now it isn't. Rampage can't even hit 500,000.
They could do a money angle here if they were actually a good wrestling company. Have the Elite jump him on that first Collision show.
“If I had Tony Khan’s legal brain trust representing me, I’d be in prison right now for the Manson murders.” 😂😂
Let's not forget Omega was part of that segment where they were mocking Punk.
Punk will have Jim Corny at his corner .
Imagine the heat he would get if he showed up at Aew with Jim !
😊thanks guys😊
wait for it

LIKE MUSSOLINI
I think Collision was Punk's idea. I think Punk said he was going to sue if they didn't let him take the serious guys and do his own show. If Punk wasn't in the driver's seat for all of this, that wouldn't give him control over the show after what happened. Punk is a legend.
Ironic that the only Wrestler that openly came out and said Punk is a Cancer was Rollins and Jim didn’t say shit about it… I wonder why?
Because no one cares about what Colby Lopez has to say, fairly simple.
I figured Tony decided to make this announcement to help ticket sales or because he figures if he announces it this far out then fans will be use to it so anti Punk crowds will be less volatile when Punk shows up in their city
Like Mussolini !!!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I missed this so much❤
I love how Jim mentions Pepto Bismol. He mentioned in the Jim Cornette Experience 316 that his one time attempting to consume Pepto Bismol was down in Mid South. I believe it was Shreveport and the Alamo Motor Lodge was the site of his instant regurgitation and pink spray all over his motel room. I do recall it was Brian's fault for asking about it and it led to Nestle Quik Powdered milk story that had the same outcome. The previous story that led to the mention of Pepto was about Jim being sick before a tag match with Stan Lane against Tim Horner and the principal of the high school they were running. At the beginning of the Smokey Mountain days. Back before Jim figured out that Tim Horner was an imbecile. This was the Experience episode that Jim believed he had COVID and was acting quiet, but it was really a sinus infection, but he did lose a bit of weight. That was also the last time he gotten sick prior to his memorable segment on shitting himself this past Thanksgiving weekend; Drive Thru 271. Now as long as he can beat the damn gout, he should be good. As far Phil Brooks' involvement in the company, I'm not positive that the middle school gymnists that are allegedly the EVPs, are gonna welcome him with open arms. In the best interest of the company, they'll need to understand that despite their best efforts, Punk is and will always be a top drawing talent and they'll always be mid card. The bar is very low in this company and any mark can be in charge and a billed as a top talent. There's about 30 wrestlers and 100 marks in AEW. It's actually less available when you factor in the injured. Company has a huge issue with wrestler safety (actually no real authority over immature wrestlers preventing them from killing themselves doing phony moves) and too much wasted juice. That's to name a few of many of the issues that the outlaw promotion that Turner operates, has. If this company had common sense organization and mature adults in charge, this whole CM Punk fiasco wouldn't have existed. And if an investigation needed to be done, it would have been comprehensive and thorough and everyone involved would have been interviewed. Complete transparency. Mature adults in charge, not money marks having a weekly wet dream for just 800k viewers a week.
Man I would of hired Corny as a stay at home booker.
I love how fast the announcers were like "We've been waiting for CM Punk to come back this whole time! We're so excited!"
Wut .... No you weren't.
CM Punk is the only STAR in AEW☝️
He should go full heel, best way to utilise all the drama
Except fans won't boo him and you are back to square one.
Don't know what I enjoyed more
Brian and Jim being head and shoulders above all on thier coverage and analysis
Or punk aew matches
Even old weak out of shape appearing, punk got that over because it was a real struggle
I mean after the match he's blown up like warrior
You saw him struggle with Manuvers
Then gasping for breath after tryna do a promo
Feels real to me damnit
