This is AEW. TK has the book. That's exactly what it means. They were going to be forgotten and left behind until 3 years later Darby would randomly go over CM Punk in a meaningless match at the time and a bunch of marks will come running in yelling "LONG TERM STORY TELLING!!!"

Wardlow was "white hot" for about 2 minutes after that. Then he was paired with Joe, then jobbed to Joe, then won the title back, then lost it to Hobbs in 3 days. Wardlow is laughable now compared to where he was going into the Punk stuff.

You don't know where I would get the idea that Punk would create drama that doesn't exist? I guess that whole media scrum where Punk created a bunch of drama was all a fever dream.

Punk literally spazzed about Hangman because he didn't want to take his advice. Again, where have you been?
TK’s incompetent, but Punk had creative input. I’m not saying AEW with him was great. It wasn’t. But that’s the better vision. Punk’s philosophy on how to put pro-wrestling together works better than the spamming and “everything is awesome” approach without vision.

Page ambushed Punk with a promo on Dynamite. TK did nothing about it. Punk shot in the scrum. He didn’t “spaz out.” The fight was when The Bucks went looking for one.
