AEW Dynamite June 21st, 2023: Go Home Dynamite for Forbidden Door

Isn't going to be great when Punk announces his opponent for FD as.................*drum roll************ KENTA........

And we all have a good chuckle.

Just beat me to it. Bitch.

 

[Wiseman]

Your sig pleases me so I'll allow the slander.

 

[Roy Mustang]

I mean makes sense to do the Punk stuff in Chicago and then do Elite stuff on Collison this week

 

[Chris]

I have a sneaky suspicion the latest "Kenta turned the match down" reports are planted but I'm not gonna act like I haven't been wrong about that stuff before and get my hopes up lol the actual rumored opponent is cool too

 

[Wiseman]

You have to figure Eddie teams up with someone to take on most likely Yuta/Claudio, but I could also see them doing something with Eddie/NJPW wrestler against Mox/Claudio after last week's little altercation.

And who is the other "rumored" opponent?

The rumors that say they’re not here say they won’t be on collision either.

Most likely because they don’t want to have a punk-less collision for a while.

Urgh. Would rather not have Punk on both if it meant no Elite on one of them

 

[Comrade Khan]

the elite are going to be on the show, just pretapes. they dont need to wrestle until the ppv. punk like just gonna get interupted and I doubt he wrestles Saturday either, so if hes on Collision, itll be a promo or altercation. I could see Saturday also just being a pretape for Punk and it more focused on Miro and Dre

 

[Chris]

And who is the other "rumored" opponent?

Spoiler

Satoshi Kojima

 

[Comrade Khan]

and I say that because I think it would be very unwise for Punk to wrestle 1 day from PPV, same with Kenny and Danielson, they being bubblewrapped atm

I don’t even disagree with you there.

I guess that’s the trouble of double booking Chicago.

it's only an issue because of the ppv as well and the angle going. I don't really see it being a problem down the line anyways. I think the next story beat for Elite BCC is happening at FD anyhow

 

[Chris]

Yeah th Collision debut was set by WBD specifically for the first weekend of no playoffs and I think that made it a bitch for other plans, it's gonna make it hard to predict the booking going forward bc the first two eps are very abnormal on the schedule
