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

seems pretty obvious the bucks are in on it with that tweet lol

Like I’m trying to think really hard, but I don’t think a single thing about Steve Austin’s entire character changed at all between when he was a heel, and when he turned babyface outside of the fact that he was then mostly feuding with heels, matches with heels, but he was still generally say the same things he was still just randomly beating people up and hit people stunners and attack with steel chairs even other babyfaces it didn’t matter to him. Stone Cold only cared about stone cold.

 

[Comrade Khan]

stone cold steve austin is not comparable to punk and was a character 30+ years ago. he also didnt cut 4th wall breaking promos

 

[Comrade Khan]

he just talked shit

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Yea, I definitely feel like maybe it’s hopefully been smoothed over and we get the feud. I’m a huge fan of all involved, so I’m ready to be pro wrestling entertained

 

[Comrade Khan]

stone cold also didnt alienate half the fan base by starting drama backstage, but I digress. I like Punk, but im not going to revere him and compare him to stone cold lol

 

[Smart Marx]

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

Did he start those? I only remember it starting and THEN he said the counterfeit line.

But I mean a lot of people dislike the elite. Not even just Punk fans. It’s honestly weird how many people dislike them. It’s kinda cultish.

a lot of people dislike the elite because of punk and he is choosing to make it worse while the elite are faces. he also went out of his way to call their fans soft. thats not a face move my guy

It’s not about comparing, it’s about the fact you can disparage other babies and still be a baby lol

Also you’re mixing in personal feelings about non-storyline stuff with a promo he made in character.

 

[Comrade Khan]

like I said, youre allowed to view it the way you want. but im not the only one who thinks that was a very heelish and hypocritical promo.

It was before that.

I’m not gonna argue this anymore. He teamed with the babies against the heels. From a production standpoint he didn’t turn heel. Yet.

But I get it; he got you because you’re a big elite fan.

 

[Comrade Khan]

there was not fuck the elite chants in aew ever unless they were heels before punk

 

[Comrade Khan]

that's aboslutely not correct

[Comrade Khan]
