The Elite are returning to AEW as CM Punk's camp responds: Wrestling Observer Radio 

I love this comment 😂

Ikr almost watchable now

It’s the elixir of life we all need

Could we not always see that?

FACTS DAVE LOVES TO CUT HIM OFF SO ANNOYING

Lmfao

He used to giveaway webcams on the observer in the very early 2000s for quizzes.. that’s how old I am and been listening to them both.. Dave was fine back then and has slowly deteriorated over the years with his speech problems.. excellent writer, terrible speaker!

@@Jim-so3to hmmm, his writing is pretty messy too, but not on the level of his live speaking. His historical knowledge and analytical mind are fantastic though.

THIS 👆🏽

Well it started out as a muffin But eventually turned into a donut

SAME!

same

🤣🤣🤣 underrated comment

I think it was due to his office being a mess that he never appeared on video…Dave lives in a bubble, but video technology is a part of said bubble. It isn’t the bucks fault for “walking” in that room, it’s 3 executives went and confronted an employee. However you slice it, words are words in this biz, they can always be spun and taken with a grain of salt. Action happened apparently, and the elite went looking for it. Have you seen that dogs teeth btw?

Granny beat him to it by months.

@@stevenweathers2989 Executives are exactly who would confront an unruly employee in any other company. The fact they brought Chief Head of Legal & Head of Talent Relations completely absolves them in the eyes of any jury. All sychophantic behavior from emotionally captured Punk fans should be ignored like the mewling of infant cattle.

Seeing his face as he wants to cut Bryan off every 6 seconds makes me smile 😁

@@retrokoh 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Herr jorden runt Good question.

that's how he got his biceps

Holding a condenser microphone isn't suggested, I picks up little knocks, clicks, and bumps

He looks several days over 25😆

Larry the Dog, Star Witness

lol

Wrong. The cosplay Bucks need to get their geek lame asses fired.

@@randomthoughtstoday They're one of the best things about AEW.

I refuse for this light hearted, funny comment to be ruined by toxic fandom. Until I hear from Larry it’s all hearsay.

Agreed. I’m far more likely to trust someone who says they’re a complete asshole than someone telling me how kind and benevolent they are.

Yeah, it's kinda like saying "I am very smart". If you have to say it, you probably aren't.

It was tongue-in-cheek when Punk said it so your comment is not a fair comparison, but in general I agree with what you said.

@@greyfox4838 ya i guess i have to be there but i stil think he's that kind of person.

@@Suspect333 Punk is the first to say he's an asshole and that he's difficult to be around sometimes.

commmon ten years ???? now thats long term lamp rubbing

@@rezR2 hey we can all hope. Y2J is still going and he’s in his 50’s.

@@goleafsgo332000 unfortunately

CM Punk never grew up still an asshole. hes proved it many times in his career

I didn’t think putting Dave on camera is that big of an issue I rather like it.

I started listening to these guys after hearing about them in Cornette's podcast....he was right all along

You know He loves Kenny baby

Yep

Yep, he loves the Young FKs

Because they don't actually pay attention. They STILL think that the EVPs stormed into his room and jumped him 3-to-1, motivated by their belief that hating the Elite makes them cool.

@TMPS93 cool story lady. At least you admitted that Page started all of this. By the way, until the Elite (who were management) came looking for a fight, it was still just words. Run along now.

He double-crossed him on live television. How could Punk trust him in a match?

@@wilcee238 thank you for providing an example of the dumbasses who still think it was the EVPs storming into his room and looking for a fight.

@@SkutFarkus i mean theyre even reporting on this but in a way that makes punk look like a pussy. "he was scared hangman would shoot on him" instead of that coming from the fact hangman is unprofessional in a promo so he might also be in a match.

He's under a non-disclosure agreement, perhaps?

@@GayFishYe No, more likely you can’t talk bout ongoing legal case.. it’s the fucking law!

@The Baddestman you're the only one I see here crying

also CM Punk: *punches you in the face for trying to talk to him about it like a man* what a fucking loser.

You run up, you get done up - Me

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yep…

The Elite won't get Punk chants. Unfortunately, these morons have successfully poisoned the fanbase and made people think Punk is the all time worst person in wrestling.

Punk couldn't punch his way out of a paper bag, so who knows?

Yet he was mad man vs the Bucks and Kenny baby

DSOTR wrestlers witch hunt. Yeah something they can twist around to fit their own bias.

I think your the only sensible person in these comments 😂

Kahn does a great Job of humiliating himself

Throw punk out.

You forget how he humiliated them ? By pointing out facts . Hangman started this by being unprofessional .

Punk wasn't gifted a damn thing. He EARNED top billing by putting butts in seats and influencing PPV buys. Don't be an idiot

@Cold Snap He does care about workers' rights. You do realize he can despise a person and still care about workers' rights, right? That is such a stupid argument. Plus, both Punk and Khan have stated that Punk had zero to do with Cabana's job security. I would venture to guess that a guy that was barely used on tv and moved the needle zero times may have just been kept off tv and eventually released like so many others in AEW have been. Is that a viable possibility to you or do you just want to blindly hate Punk at all times and leave your objectivity behind?

@Cold Snap Have you ever thought to yourself that Kingston's line was actually ok'd by Punk? Punk has never said that Kingston went into business for himself. In fact, none of the dirt sheets did either. Punk was pissed at Page for actually going off script and bringing up a very sore subject. Page did that because Page is a bitch. And its not about being a Punk defender or not, its about seeing bullshit happen and having the proper response to it. Almost everything that has happened to Punk in AEW was brought about by the EVP's and Page. Punk is responsible for his media scrum outburst but I even understand why he did that. He had a boss that wasn't going to squash the issue and he had EVP's that were never going to stop leaking shit to their friends in the "media". Its ok to like the "elite" and not like Punk but its not ok to see what is going on in this situation and totally siding with the "elite" bitches. Now when you respond to this comment, please try to refrain from using any stupid logical fallacy or ad hominem attack. Thanks

@Cold Snap your comment is dripping in irony

The dirt sheet writers are closing rank and defending their favorites again.

@Cold Snap That was a storyline. LMAO. Eddie literally said out of character in an interview that he was happy Punk was in AEW and was good for them.

Exactly. Watch this channel for entertainment, not facts.

It's a dog lol. CM Punk is an overrated cry baby.

@@BeboTVreal spoken like a true the elites dick rider

If there is a buyout, it to keep punk NDA and prevent him from going to wwe. I doubt a dog teeth is treated more severely than nick Jackson being knock out by a chair in the head.

@@demoth lol - Nick Jackson fucked around and found out didn't he?

Yay! No more punk.

Punk didn't move the needle at all lol. They were getting the same or higher ratings before he got there and after he left. There is no confirmation on that "only million dollar gate" thing other than Punk's word, which forgive me if I don't put much faith in lol

@@rulerzigzag that’s actually not true. If you look at the ratings and you look at the numbers from when he got there & before they are different. That wasn’t just out of his mouth but actual reporters. And it’s 2022 there are no wrestlers anymore in this day and age that truly “Move the needle.” it’s just not that popular as it once was.

@@collinsal1433 That is quite literally not true lol. They always got between 800k-1.1 mill during, before and after Punk. Their highest rating in their history was two years before Punk got there. The highest rating during the "Punk era" was the show after Danielson/Cole debuted at the PPV. Not the show after Punk's rampage debut The bulk of Punk's fanbase are hardcore wrestling fans who watch regardless. He made no notable increase in the ratings during his AEW run, and made almost no noise when he returned on that WWE Fox show. He's just not that big of a star

They nailed their highest gate at Grand Slam in NYC,with no Punk or Elite

Yeah, he knew he was injured when he came into the scrum. All this is gossip nonsense. Notice how NONE of these gossip queens have addressed that a good part of the Punk rant was directed at their gossiping. LOL

I can’t imagine the life you lead to waste time typing all this nonsense out.

It was witnessed by John Fetterman's neck lump, but his gibberish is so unintelligible, it took this long to figure out what he was saying. "Hi, goodnight everybody"

@@cmcg3738 a little better life than you who decided to comment on it 🤫

Sure, the EVPs went with the head of legal and head of talent relations to go have a brawl. Cool story.

The Bucks and Kenny should stick to being wrestlers

@@CoryTheRaven you always bring that up but guess what it’s not there job to go talk to punk first it’s the job of talent relations and hr especially since the evp’s where who punk was mad at there is no way in an actual business that an evp would do what they did it just wouldn’t happen

@@Charles-qw5ug lol what? That happens all the time in the business world. Just, y'know, without the employees throwing fists and chairs.

@@CoryTheRaven no it doesn’t because it’s not there job that’s why companies have hr and some companies have talent relations that is there jobs. When higher up management does things like this it gets companies sued.

he was clearly spoiling for a fight.

If that's a fact, then they got off easy

Yes, if I saw my dog get hit by a door that flew open, I would be pretty angry at the person who opened it myself. But I think Dave has a point and that this is the kind of thing where--again, if it was me--if it happened like that and I were telling my side in the beginning, I wouldn't have just said "They kicked in my door!" like he did. I would've said "They kicked in my door and hurt my fucking dog!" Odd that he would leave that out of his initial account. It wouldn't be the kind of thing I'd gloss over so that I could talk about what Ace Steel was doing.

Can't believe that it took Phil this long to think to claim the dog got injured to garner some sympathy, and I can't believe anyone would fall for it lmao

@@Patriotic_Eagle1995 he was originally claiming that ace's wife was holding Larry, it's always punk's version of events that changes the elites hasn't changed from the start, pretty much says it all

@The Baddestman Woah Junk rhymes with Punk. You're so smart.

Sort of like the Bucks were by telling everyone Nick Jackson got knocked out cold? You see how this game can go both ways?

Punk is still out with an injury til mid next year when I remember correctly

Regals screwing mox

Wow you really showed them with this comment. See you tomorrow after you click their next video again.

@@Krispen_Wah dave really showed everyone that he will write and run with any story. His sources Twitter... gotta fill the newsletter. Yes still waiting for bryan to explain that great impact invasion again 😉.

Dave likes showing off his junky room. Dave thinks it makes him look like a tireless worker.

Punk threw the first punch though.

I was also making a perplexed face at my phone when he was talking there. Like, okay, even discounting that I remember how kinda upset he was when it happened - what kinda Buckian match layout do you have to follow to arrive at the conclusion Punk seemed "fine" at the end of his part of the scrum?

It is. The whole shows are on this channel but you pay a monthly fee to access them. See the join button in the video description to do so.

@@DavidH1 HARD PASS. I’ll wait out for the free content. 🙃

@@DavidH1 Pay to see people talk about wrestling?! Of which like 90% of the people that DO talk about wrestling, do it for free? No thanks. Bryan is alright but he certainly doesn't talk about anything mind-blowing that would make me say "OMG I GOTTA PAY FOR THEIR CONTENT!"... and Dave is absolutely insufferable to listen to. He interrupts every 5 seconds. No way am I paying for that.

@@JakeK3339 Yet here you are.

@@Jim-so3to enjoying free content.. that was the whole point

As great as it sounds, punk vs Omega wouldn’t be great. Punk was so sloppy in the ring and got injured twice in his last 3 matches

Get rid of all them. They’re dead weight as far as I am concerned, hate seeing them on tv every week when we go months without seeing good AEW characters.

@@theSuperviLLain_est you're not wrong, 2014 Punk could have handled Kenny, but the current version would get injured trying to keep up with Omega's speedy explosive style

Give me your top 3 tag teams today

@@JohnJohn-vv4ns I know this is directed to someone else, but The Uso’s The Revival/FTR RK-Bro

"I don't know anything that happened" --Dave Meltzer. There, fixed it for you.

@@mrpink99 “I only think what the elite tell me” fixed it again

As in he had calmed down considerably is probably what he meant

They could, but before the All Out drama Punk had already split the locker room when he called out Hangman, knowing full well Hangman wouldn't come out and then he pissed them all off when he buried them and the company in the scrum. Sometimes Locker Room happiness trumps earning money.

@@Kinvarus1 The only people he buried were the EVPS at the scrum, and I bet there's plenty of people who agree with him.

@@Kinvarus1 lockerrom was divided before that, it started when Page cuted that promo

he barely moved the needle, he's nowhere near the draw in 2022 his fans make him to be

@@Ceiling_Gato the fans going to arenas to see him disagree with you. But ok, you know better

They’re also his main sources of info

@@MattSingh1 lol k

Yeah I cant believe people take him serious as a journalist when it comes to those jabroni's

if he were, he wouldn't be saying shit like "the elite cant talk about their side and they havent and you might never hear their side" after spending 10 minutes recounting what "several eyewitnesses in the room" told him from the elite's side

🙄

@AE but how do we know Punk’s story about Larry getting hit in the face is true?

@@princeleo8803 Punk could easily prove it if he has the Vet records plus witnesses

@@Nostalgia9478 and has he shown those vet records yet? I’m not going to jump the gun and say he’s lying but the timing is a bit suspicious. The brawl took place almost 2 months ago and he chooses now to mention his dog getting hit in the face with the door. If it is true, it would of been important information, don’t you think he would of said something a long time ago? In fact, an earlier report said Kenny was trying to keep the dog out of harm’s way when the brawl was happening. Why didn’t Punk dispute that with his side of the story then? Something just doesn’t add up. We may never know the whole truth.

@@princeleo8803 has aew or anyone involved in the situation said anything publicly? All the “news” or “reports” are coming from dirt sheets so basically you me and every other fan have no clue what actually happened

Careful. Meltzer and company don't like critical thinking. It's amazing these idiots actually make a living from this trash.

I think you're reaching. They're only talking about the story. Not making definitive statements about what happened.

@@MasterAdam100 It is clear what they are saying, and it is the same tilt for the Elite/AEW every time. Like when Ariel Helwani said that Tony's interview was frustrating. BA and DM made it sound like Ariel harped on the scrum/fight, then got mad because he wouldn't talk about it. If you listen to the actual interview, Tony refused to talk about: - the fight - MJF - Bray Wyatt - Contract extensions - Things that would make him look bad On one hand, it's just wrestling talk so whatever. But it just really bugs the sh!t out of me when people don't even try to hide their bullshit!t.

They go by the most reliable sources they have, they are doing what a journalist does just because you don't like what they are saying doesn't mean the rumours and reports are not accurate lol.

Except there were neutral people there who corroborated what the Elite said happened.....

@@pooldead7712 I'm just saying that as journalists they should always say "according to..." but instead Bryan and Dave make statements and describing stuff like if they were 100% true facts. That is a wrong narrative from a journalist's point of view, but I guess that label is long gone forthis channel. PS: I cannot pick sides because I was not there I just don't like their narrative.

@@pooldead7712 just parroting what his sycophants tell him and whatever he read on Twitter fitting their views is hardly "going by the most reliable sources." Also read the second half of your sentence again. "Just because *you* don't like [it] doesn't mean the *rumours* [...] are not accurate." Are you serious???🤣

N Speaking of Real Names, Mr. Meltzer brings up Chris Guy.. That would be Ace Steel for US keeping Score😏

That's a shame. TK had just signed him to a 5year deal just like many others 😂

@@Gravey_draws Larry the Dog doesn't like how TK booked Kenny Omega to save him during the brawl. But then again, Larry the Dog no-sold his face getting smashed in by The Bucks opening the door. I dunno, it isn't easy managing talent

Punk has always been full of shit. In one breath he will cry about working hurt at wwe but in the next he will compare himself to harley race cause he wants the cred of an old school tough guy bad ass. He wants things both ways. He's insufferable.

His fixation on Hangman is so weird to me.

My thoughts exactly... Isn't Punk a trained MMA fighter with professional fights under his belt? Shouldn't have been worried about Hangman if things broke down.

It's different when you're suppose to be working.

I honestly think that's just a lie by punk about page shoot fighting him. I think the workers rights line went over his head and he started stewing on it, watching Jim cornette and reading iwc chatter while he was out injured.

And yet the night of the scrum Bryan melted in front of Punk like a little b*tch. Then after the fact, of course, tried saying "I never said that...I said some people told me you were just defending yourself, which you were..." Oh Bryan, never change 😂😂😂

Absolutely. Hell, CM Punk > Meltzer and Alvarez.

@@hurrigame Any wrestling fan with a brain > Meltzer, Alvarez, The 'elite', their followers.

You can always tell who the Cult of Cornette members are lol

The EVPs should act like actually EVPs. Can’t blame punk when the executives act like dicks

I just tried this and now my dog has to get several teeth removed.

lol yeah the elite are saints, fuck1n idiot believing every gossip his friends spread

couldve been someone holding the dog when the door swung open

Larry being a former abused dog before punk got him. Dogs like that don’t act like normal dogs there reflexes don’t work right and when they get hurt they don’t normally yelp or wimper they most of the time cower up in a ball it’s really sad

My guess is that is the only side he has heard

i didnt

@@andrewclayterman6230 Neither did I.

Ya it was cool but made no sense. If they were being erased, why air it in the first place? Was cool to see, wondering where they go with that.

@@willisskull2676 Considering Tony Khan is like a paper airplane in a tornado, who knows what thought if any was behind this. I can only believe that they will rebrand the company because of A. The Elite is not that popular anymore, B. Some of them might not be around much longer; C. Tony realized he was handcuffed to that whole group if the name had Elite in it or D. All of the above.

Its only a referncing to them having been gone from the company for so long,like theyve been wiped completely off Dynamite. Considering AEW was so tightlipped about what happened at ALL OUT,that segment can be seen as finally acknowledging the situation. By doing that,they tease a return as well. Its supposed to be making everyone question what the meaning is

Good job no one believes what punk and he's guys are saying is truthful then lol, specially as the story has come out now and nkt straight after it happened, so this screams b.s this story.

@@pooldead7712 I'd like to see some Vet Bills. At least you can easily prove it

You say that like they superkicked Larry in the face on purpose. Unless they have X-Ray vision, knew Larry was behind the door and deliberately opened it to injure him it was an accident. There a big difference between an accident and animal abuse. One is something that's just happens that you don't intend, the other is intentional.

@The Baddestman he's the most real out of anyone. If the elite come back and Punk doesn't. I'm afraid I'll have to tune out

@The Baddestman Cya

Only thing to be afraid of is if his sparkly butterfly jeans hit a beam of light and accidentally blinded someone.

Dave's face is a draw confirmed!

Baby face run for Dave

No the topic is

Punk is a liar, he's given like 4 different versions of events so far

@@ned5231 lol he didn't even give one version, let alone 4. What you are referring to are wrestling "journalists" talking out of their ass.

That‘s the point. Punk is the most authentic wrestler there is. Honest to fuckin‘ who or what you pray to. Most people ask for honesty like this and when they get it, they hate it, they despise it, they cry, scream, shout and/or rage. Just like Jack Nicholson once said: „You can‘t handle the truth.“ and no, no R before that. Sometimes people should consider what they wish for, they might get it, more as they can take. Punk is honest and I see a little similarity to my own honesty: I don‘t know, when this honesty fits in or is asked for. I always get the boot, the trouble and everything. I like to think, that Punk shares this detail with me. In a Business, where lying has become essential, he‘s the prophet in a wrong world.

Actually it would seem that he absolutely is a liar. If that thing with Larry happened that would've done what he led with not bring it up once it's clear that hes not believed and that hes no longer gonna be back with the company.

@@eric2465 Has anyone actually given any official statements of what happened or is it geeks like SRS and Meltzer that talk about he said she said? I 100% believe that the Elite have fed them their side, but I imagine Punk's side, rightfully so, wipes their ass with the opinion of ragsheet writers.

Is this a rib? Punk is absolutely a liar. He lied to colt cabana. He lied about wwes doctor. He lied about triple h.

@@vronica03 I don‘t know, I‘m a vegetarian.

Or the truth

@Chris Topia I’m not going to jump the gun and say Punk is lying. We may never know the whole truth. But it is kind of odd that he brings up his dog getting hit in the face now. If it is true, wouldn’t it be important information? Wouldn’t he have said it weeks ago? Especially when an earlier report said Kenny was trying to keep the dog from harm during that whole brawl. Yet Punk said nothing about his dog then.

@@princeleo8803 for all we know punk might have not talked to anyone about it. All everyone is saying is that it’s punks camp and for all we know it might have been said before but just not reported cause meltzer wasn’t the one that broke the story about Larry getting hit

But it does now make the story about Omega taking Larry out of the room make sense. Previously that was completely nonsensical.

No one cares about made up belts they created because they didn't want to put FTR over

Wrestling "journalists" told those stories.

I've heard lots of stories, this whole situation has changed multiple times from what I've heard. I've never heard CM punk actually address it at all though. So I'm not sure where you've heard four different stories from him.

Bitch Lasagne

Shhh. The sheets tell him who's said what 😂

What about the version that says Omega was just trying to save Larry and get him out of harms way? Now suddenly the narrative from Dave is "the dog was never in trouble." So what exactly was Kenny doing then because 2-3 weeks ago the narrative was "Kenny just wanted to save Larry". Well if Kenny watched the dog get hit by the door... wouldn't be that make a little more sense? Can't have it both ways.

Punk is also so fragile that you or me could beat him in a fight. You really want a guy like this as your world champ? Punk is a crybaby and it shows more every day.

Worst team I have ever seen, would rather watch Bushwhackers vs Natural Disasters than the no selling trampoline kids against anybody.

@@Krispen_Wah punk laid out the bucks. So that’ll put you over the bucks as well

It doesn’t really matter how he’d do in a real fight. CM Punk is a star of professional wrestling and sells tickets. The Young Bucks do not. Omega is debatable, I would say he is a star and a draw but not on the level of a CM Punk.

@@Krispen_Wah I highly doubt you could beat Punk in a fight.

Meltzer has ZERO credibility.
