The rain was REALLY bad in that area (Rosemont, IL) last night. It was coming down in the video we saw, but it’s possible even the backstage area was slick. This is was a heavier rain than what most people in the USA experience. As for the rock’s slower movement - I’m only 36 (in decent shape) and I totally get it. An unexpected slip/fall or ankle twist hits way harder than when I was 18. And I’m not even two weeks away from a main event match…
I don’t think Punk was trying to win a power struggle at all. I think dude was done after Brawl Out, “talked” with Triple H at that RAW episode, and was hell bent from that point on to push Tony’s buttons until he got out of his contract. I don’t think he expected he had to do that much shit before Tony would do it, honestly.
Damn. I get here after an exam just to see the chuds are already here. It’s really sad we live in a world where your haters are you most loyal supporters. Oh, well. Can’t wait to enjoy the Q&A. Thanks Dave, Andrew, & Garret!
Regarding the question of Dynamic airing on Christmas Day vs the NFL, they’ll also be going head to head with the evening NBA games on TNT so they probably should punt
He got pretty sick, just prior to COVID, and the cough lingered for a year or so. It’s still there, and probably always will be, but it’s nowhere near as bad as it once was.
Question at 23:20, that should Tony have kept Punk? I think the better question is, should situation have went that far in the first place that people in back are working against the guy who The Boss wants to keep and it running the 2nd show? The fact backstage is so toxic that people can take shots at the top guy on camera is more telling than what should've been done with Punk. Meanwhile, the segment featuring Punk gained 341,000 total viewers over the previous quarter, thanks Jack Perry.
Tony takes a HUGE chunk of the blame. If you listen to the interview Tony did prior to Brawl Out, Dave kept asking (leading more towards the negative) if it was a good idea to have all this real life heat between wrestlers (Punk & Page) and Tony kept insisting that wrestling history has shown it can be beneficial by sparking interest. That was an incredible miscalculation on Tony’s part.
I think he knows differently to the words that come out of his mouth and just lies to create a false narrative about AEW. Maybe it is because Tony Khan is paying him, maybe it is just because they get inside access to AEW and fed news to put out in his newsletter but I don't believe he doesn't know better. The other option is that he has early dementia - from some things he says I lean towards him having dementia, like him saying Orange Cassidy is a good and respected worker, I mean that is bordering on complete insanity. Orange botches every move, his strikes miss by at least a foot, he is like Bernie from weekend at Bernies - no personality and needs to be carried.
Lol probably Dave this guy is would say anything to get friendly with aew trampoline monkeys this guy tried to say will osprey is best wrestler in the world and it isn't even close😂😂😂 my god osprey is very good but he ain't best not close to be best you need more than just ring craft.
@@ChristopherGeorge-jt6ry Apparently they need more than just me to pay attention, because they stopped paying attention and changed the channel when she came on. 😂
NJPW? What kind of dope you on buddy? NJPW aint goin nowhere. that is a japanese company. There has ALWAYS been a narrative of meltzer having an anti WWF bias. Notice Cornette buries the most successful period of WWF rasslin? he was a meltzer stooge all those years. Why? Because he was the version of AEW back then. NWA, Crockett; WCW, SMW; and on the Heyman end, ECW: Always had Meltzer's ear. Think of Cornette; Flair, Heyman as the original "EVPs" Meltzer is still close with Cody also
If they did make a Dynamite movie they need to hire his nephew, who looks and wrestle's just like him. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dwuZOP73Qeo.html
