The 'CM Punk was backstage at Raw' thread

[Canadian Dragon]

When did Tony make it clear he was at war with WWE? When WWE booked NXT on the same day as Dynamite? When WWE booked an NXT ppv the same day as AEW's ppv (twice)? Just curious

In an ESPN interview a few months back I think, said they really hate each other and makes for a true war or something

During a recent appearance on most recent episode of The Dan Le Batard Show, AEW CEO and President Tony Khan said AEW and WWE “truly hate each other.” He also further said that WWE and AEW are in a “wrestling war.”

"I only know what people have come to me and alleged. But I do know it's a real war between AEW and WWE, and the fans are interested in it. And that was part of the original business model of AEW was I knew wrestling fans, frankly, are very interested in wrestling free agency and wrestling wars, and I believe we could create a free-agent market that is definitely a real thing now and that would be a big part of the story."

Idk, seems pretty tame/in kayfabe with me outside the part of free agency. Considering they don't even take shots at WWE on tv anymore, I'll chalk this up as promoter speak

 

[Canadian Dragon]

especially the part right before the quote:

his belief that they are constantly battling for talent, especially those available as free agents:

I personally think that’s pretty dope that Punk was attempting to make amends. If he didn’t get to speak long with Hunter, I hope they’re able to later.

 

[Y2Jayne]

Imagine HHH's grin when he saw him

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Punk is now supposedly backstage at Impact show in Chicago.

My guy is making the rounds.
