you could seek out his aew promos when he got there
what he said on the cabana podcast
what he said for years after
the saudi tweet
then on to his behavior during the grip bomb
all the leaks he put out there while complaining about being slandered in the sheets
complaining about people shooting on him while continuously shooting on people

I could post a lot more, but I don't really feel like writing an essay right now. maybe at some other point. There's a lot of reason why a lot of people including fans of his feel like he is going to come off like a massive phony. All depends how you feel about it though, some people don't care and that's fine too.

I'm just saying though, nothing of what I said that's negative about Punk is a lie.
The first two are kinda null and void tbh. People grow, people change their opinions, people calm down etc. all part of being human and doesn’t make you a hypocrite. The Saudi stuff can’t really be brought up until he goes to Saudi, which would in fact make him a hypocrite.

the rest of it is just banter, just a load of kids in a sandbox being kids

There are plans for Punk to feud with Roman Reigns, Sports Illustrated has learned. But it will not be Punk against Reigns first, as that spot belongs to Rollins. A feud between Rollins and Punk is a massive positive for both men. Punk can still wrestle at a high-level, but his work will only be enhanced in the ring with a world-class wrestler like Rollins. While it is not the current favorite, there is plenty of reason to believe Punk-Rollins could serve as the main event for the opening night of WrestleMania 40. For Rollins, that would simply not be the case without Punk.

That doesn't seem to go well for :Cody

Don't see how that changes anything at all. Feel like you could be looking towards SummerSlam at the earliest for Roman/Punk

It definitely doesn't need to be, it sells itself. All depends on when it actually happens I suppose.

I feel as though he would be more likely to drop a title to Roman than to challenge.

No way Cody loses again if he challenges Roman.

And Punk/Roman doesn’t need the title like Dale said. It’s probably be the most interesting program Roman could be involved in that doesn’t involve the belt

I wouldn’t put it past WWE but I also can’t see them having him wait a full year just to lose again. He could have rematched the next ppv for that.
Again, it wouldn’t surprise me if they did it. Just stupid if they did.
