Punk is an interesting and often entertaining wrestler, but man he seems to be a dick high on his own koolaid backstage.

I'm good with him being gone. Keep that locker room healthy and free of toxicity.

I hate that it came to this, but I really hope that TK wakes up to the fact he can't be their best friend, he needs to be their boss and put his foot down.

If this is it for punk, well, bye. If it's not the end for Punk, I hope he doesn't get any more chances.

With AEW negotiating with Warner Media about TV rights fees on a contract renewal for AEW’s cable shows, Khan might be reluctant to make any big move at this point that would subtract arguably the biggest name on his roster, especially if Khan has any sympathy for Punk who has shown a commitment to trying to move on from controversy and is merely reacting to being prodded by others.

Has he?

Has he really?

Classic apologist BS, right there.

I think firing him maybe the only way to save the relationship punk clearly doesn't respect tony and thinks he can do whatever he wants let him go and let him see that nobody is going to miss him let him watch aew sell out Wembley next year or go to Mexico without him

Punk about to hang it up (again) and become a podcaster.

Then he can very loudly end his friendship with himself after he says something damaging and possibly defamatory on his own podcast.
