I sincerely hope CM Punk leaves AEW soon (lemmy.ml)

I have not enjoyed wrestling since he’s been back. All In was the first PPV I didn’t but since AEW started because I am just so unexcited for the show knowing there’s such toxins shit going on. I know I might be in the minority here because people seem to like CM Punk for whatever reason, but he makes omen of my favorite things so much less enjoyable. I only watch stuff when I hear that a specific match was really good now

I haven’t seen any reports suggesting that Perry started the physical part of the incident. It doesn’t matter if someone starts arguing with you and asking if you have a problem with them. That doesn’t warrant violence and it’s not excusable just because Punk was sad about what Perry said.

What narrative do you think was already in my head? That I didn’t like him already and the reports of these things happening just reinforce that?

I didn’t have any preexisting narrative of him in my head. I didn’t know the guy. I quit watching wrestling after the Chris Benoit shit, and didn’t start watching again until well after CM Punk was gone. I had no opinion of the guy until he started wrestling in AEW. I learned about the pipebomb, thought it was awesome. Watched some of his higher rated matches, and while his style wasn’t my favorite, he had really good chemistry with his opponents. So I was interested in seeing him join. I didn’t care for the storylines he was in but whatever the matches were good. Then the dumb shit started and my opinion of him dropped with each thing he said, until All Out when I really didn’t like him. When he came back I lost interest in the show. And now shits just staying the same apparently. So my desire to watch is pretty low.
