forameus Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 1 hour ago, TheGoon said: Seems to be more to this than just wanting away, something to do with his mental health. Hopefully gets himself sorted, though he might just want to be with his Mrs again This one understandably getting a bit lost in everyone talking about which overgrown child bit which other overgrown child. Seems a real sad one for him, doubt it can be anything else given he's not exactly been used badly since going over. Seems mental health related, so hopefully he gets the time away he needs. Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up back in WWE after a bit of a break. Like you say, being closer to his wife has to be a big draw, and HHH being back in charge has to be a massive carrot to a lot of people. Might be a Gargano type spell away before a return. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 (edited) Looks like most of the Elite side of things have been suspended, but tellingly nothing has been mentioned on the Punk/Steel side of things. I think they might punt them. Doing so would obviously need a lot more of a going over with legal than just a suspension, so could be a reason why they haven't just announced it already. f**k me, Dynamite is going to be must-watch tonight. Genuinely interested to see what comes out. Give MJF a live mic and put your fingers in your ears Tony. EDIT: Also reading stories that the head of AEW legal went to talk to the Elite side of things, then went to Punk's dressing room, removed Punk's dog from the room, before the Elite (all of them) descended on the dressing room. Be fucking hilarious if this ends up that they've tried to enact a 7 on 1 beat down on the guy and he's largely innocent in all of it other than being a complete dick.

TheGoon Posted September 7, 2022 Author Share Posted September 7, 2022 Punk injured as well. Gove Mox the belt back and pretend nothing happened. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Seemingly Omega was there to try and calm shit down. Apparently even talked with Punk after it all too. But none of us know what actually happened. There's loads of stories flying around, accusing both sides of starting things, accusing both sides of increasingly wilder things. Loads of folk have made their minds up either way, including on here. It's all been rather fun and amusing. Some tremendous speculation, although the truth will probably be more mundane sadly, if we ever get it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Raccoon Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 I like how it's Hangman that's caused this chaos yet he was nowhere to be seen. I know he's got a reasonably young baby which may explain this but I'd prefer to think he just stirred the pot then fucked off 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 He wasn't in the BTE Dark Order bit that took place when House of Black were making their PPV entrance. Having spent maybe Tues-Sun in Chicago it wouldn't shock me he was gone to get a flight to allow for a couple of days at home before tonight's TV. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Latest rumour is that Punk injured himself during the match on Sunday (a tope apparently) and will need surgery again. Seemingly a new champ will be needed, again. As I said, just rumours so could be utter pish, but the speculation just keeps getting more mental. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 They need to crown a new champion tonight IMO, have MJF come out and demand the title, then have the #1 guy (Hangman, Moxley?) challenge him to the main event for it. Going to be lots of live eyes on this tonight, put on a massive main event. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 (edited) And obviously in that scenario, crown MJF. He's the one who's been shafted most from all this Edited September 7, 2022 by Christophe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted September 7, 2022 Author Share Posted September 7, 2022 I reckon they’ll keep the actual title match till the stadium show in a couple of weeks. f**k rankings, MJF vs Kingston. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
