AEW Collision Live Thread - June 17th 2023 - Punk is Back

[Smart Marx]

I wouldn’t mind him being heel if they went all in with it, but I don’t think AW wants to attempt to turn his fans against him. I think they want the best of both worlds.

 

[Comrade Khan]

he called elite fans soft and called the elite soft, that's not what faces do. he also told many lies, how can you call the elite soft when Kenny carried the company on his back with 10 injuries and Punk couldn't last a week? He also continuously aggrandized how great he was and talked about how much better than everyone he was. he didnt mention Mox who he beat for the title and barely put over Max. He cuts that promo outside of Chicago and he doesn't get cheer at all imo. its not a full blown heel promo yet because he's still faking actually caring about the fans, imo

I think splitting the fan base and getting his fans to boo the elite if they dont turn him heel while The Elite are clear faces atm would be extremely reckless booking, personally

 

[Smart Marx]

but it depends who he is against too, but i am almost certain he will be heavily boo'd if he mentions Omega ya

This is where my conflict comes in. My dream scenario would be omega and the bucks split up and omega and punk team up against the bucks. I would be conflict free and I’ll be riding that wave.

 

[Comrade Khan]

but well see, I think he's going to get boo'd in a lot of places

why would the elite split up

 

[Comrade Khan]

fun scenario but I dont think thats ever happening, they didnt waste all this time reuniting the elite to split them up

I think I need to find you some stone cold’s best promos. The guy called other babyfaces some of the worst things you can possibly imagine. He didn’t care lol.

But yeah, at the end of the night CM punk went out there and teamed with FTR against the heels.

 

[Smart Marx]

why would the elite split up

They’re not. I’m being facetious. I’m just trying to say I like Kenny omega. Lol.

But if I was a seriously pick some thing, I mean they did it when the bucks, turned on Kenny omega in the whole scenario with Kota Ibushi.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Like I said, I dont think starting fuck the elite chants is gonna help him get cheered outside his lunatic fanbase at home

 

[Hidden Blaze]

CM Punk isn’t a bad guy
CM Punk isn’t a good guy
CM Punk is THE GUY

 

[Comrade Khan]

if you think fans turned on Cody

 

[Comrade Khan]

just wait lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

right now youve seen the crowd that will cheer him the most

 

[Comrade Khan]

and also i think its storyline and he is turning heel pretty evidently, as will FTR imo
