these AEW ppv weekends seem so fun...still kicking myself for missing Full Gear when they were in MN which is fairly close to where I live...one day I'ma make it happen though

Yea,Punk is being arrogant af coming into this match,but he feels like his arrogance is earned. If Hangman beats Punk and doesn’t shake his hand,he could definitely attack Hangman,leave him bloodied and the show goes off the air with a damn near lifeless Hangman being made to shake Punks hand.

If Punk wins tho,Tony could have Punk put his hand out there and Hangman gets ready to shake his hand outta respect and Punk fakes him out and throws up a middle finger in Hangman’s face and walks off. So simple but I know that’d get major heat and continue the feud and Punks heel turn. There’s literally no boring paths to take here.

Helping out people who are pirating the show if anything

I can see how people would be annoyed by this but at the same time,him not wanting Punk/Hangman clash with Game 7 and Tony putting that match in the same breadth as the ECF,makes the World Title seem that much more important. I do feel this is AEW’s biggest match yet and TK is treating it as such.

Hangman should go over and offer to shake Punks hand after beating his ass, then proceeds to try to do so, only for Punk to turn his back and walk away being a sore loser begin his slow turn. Almost like the Kingston/Jericho match.

So to someones point where he was arrogantly thinking that he'd win, only for him to lose and become obsessed with winning the championship and he would take Hangman seriously. Leading to Hangman/Punk II at All Out in Chicago. But I really think that Hangman should retain.

next day is Memorial Day and I have the day off so f*** it...show can go til midnight for all I care I'll just make some coffee y'all gonna be thankful that we have some just "alright" matches sprinkled on the card rather than banger after banger to where you're drained by the time the main event starts

Hangman retaining equals slow build but satisfying conclusion vs Punk winning,being proven right and just not giving a f*** about being the good guy anymore equals fast pace feud that most likely finds a stumbling block but has its moments.

I think Hangman is the right choice to win,have him offer to shake Punks hand,Punk denies him and becomes a sore loser and we get a lengthy Hangman celebration to end the show

considering the articles and other stuff lately about Punk being such a big mentor and helping out so much backstage (and AEW talent refuting that lol) I feel like it'd make sense to turn him at the PPV...whether he wins or not is another question but that turn gotta come soon

It’s like,I really like the idea of Hangman solidifying his title reign tomorrow but I also like the idea of Punk proving that he is better and becomes a total piece of s*** because of it. I would like the manufactured good guy Punk storyline to breakdown slowly tho,a lot of places to go with that.

Any predictions?

So we want Page to keep the title. We not ready for punk yet? Lol

A Punk win is a win for Hangman detractors, plus idk if I like Hangman talking big s*** all feud just to lose

You know what maybe page should win which causes Punk to turn heel and s*** on everybody because of his ego. I am okay with that. Do we still think Punk need to take it off page? MJF is eventually going to be in the picture.

Hangman shouldn’t lose this match.

I get that he might because of how big Punk is for business right now but honestly this doesn’t have to be a one match feud.

Even Hangman winning the DoN match and then Punk taking the title in the next match between the two would do more for both guys.

That’s another thing,I don’t think it’s impossible for Wardlow to lose tomorrow

Imagine telling someone 6 months that Cody Rhodes would be wrestling in the MGM Grand Arena in June for not for AEW.

We might see some upsets. Never know with Tony.

I really want Hangman to avenge his All Out loss for the title against Jericho too before it ends.

Btw I’m getting this PPV for free with my built up FITE coins.

Doesn’t mean MJF doesn’t get the s*** beat outta him tho

I think Page should drop it to Punk, have Punk go on a heel run then drop it to a young guy.

I get the sentiment of Page having the title for a little longer but I’d say strike while the iron is hot

The young guy is MJF. Punk shouldn't turn heel if that happens.

Tbh I don't think MJF wins until his contract is almost up

Lets say Punk turns it won't be MJF that beats him it'll be someone like Darby. Kingston still has a built in story that could make for a great build to a title win as well. Also, if the MJJF contract issues are legit then there's no point putting the title on him lol

I didn't even think about Darby as AEW champion
