@@Super122291let these internet trolls have fun. If I was the author, I would have turned off comments so that these weirdos can't comment s*it like that, but whatever.
@@YasaBinShakeel Meh. I would just sit back and enjoy it. It's been way too long since wrestling companies have been competitive, I love the back and forth between fans. It's good for everyone.
@@Super122291 no
LOL I was there.
The collateral damage this promo caused should be studied…
Can’t wait for the documentary!
Dark Side Of The Ring "The Fall Of AEW" would be awesome.
@@michelledavidson8190 So would all the money you spent on your psychiatrist for believing in things that never happened
Damage caused by a rumor that they had no proper evidence of and could’ve just talked to him on the side. But instead, assumptions were made and this promo was cut. My oh my I bet ALL of them regret this segment so much in hindsight.
@@Dmm314 all except the bastard(s) that started the rumors and got more dimbulb subscribers because of it.
One of the biggest butterfly effects in wrestling history
Hey is it true that hap promo was not planned ?
@@anisbara4531yes. Punk confirmed it on the Ariel Helwani podcast. He and Page had went over a script of what they were going to say and then Hangman went off script. That’s why he said he wasn’t gonna embarrass him on Sunday but today because Punk was gonna look weak not having any comebacks because he wasn’t prepared for the shit Adam was gonna say
@@Lee-rt6tx thank you but i dont know what is the butterfly effect in that promo
Because of the butterfly on his jeans
@@anisbara4531it's domino effect leading to death of aew.. this promo started the domino effect
Who’s here after the punk MMA hour interview? 👀
me, lmao
Yep!
Yup
@@Kristijan365 it makes so much sense now 😂😂
I get it now.
U can tell punk was like “tf is guy talking about?” 😂😂😂😂
He knew what he was talking about, it’s just that in kayfabe he needed the audience to know a reason why he was mad so that it made sense. Punk and heyman talked several times that shoot promos only work if ur tying it back to the storyline. When it doesn’t tie back, that’s when u get the expression “going to business for yourself”
That’s what hangman was doing here.
@@Ohkayy_yy Punk was crying cause he couldn't hang.
This promo changed the entire direction for AEW.
Who’s here after the Ariel Helwani interview?
You can see Punk’s demeanor change when Hangman went off script
3:08 lmao
Phil's fee fees were so hurt when he realized everyone didn't love him in there 😂
Man, this promo is becoming more legendary with each passing day.
Adam was right.
@@greenghost2008 colt was only hired bc he’s their friend, he’s a joke who didn’t draw a dime, so if someone wants somebody out cuz they’re not cool with him then it’s all fair play, he screwed punk over for millions, and punk didn’t even try get him fired, Tony had common sense and separated them.
Because it got real lol
Yep
@@greenghost2008 No he wasn't. Him and the Elite are pussies for instigating this whole beef and then playing victim after Punk stopped taking their shit.
This is the exact moment that kicked off the AEW Civil War Storyline
Edit: Now this is gonna be relegated to the What If section of the Pro-Wrestling Universe.
This comment is goated
Come on Punk promo is for the match demmit.
💯💯
Great ppv name. AEW: Civil War
@@afafasyraf4443 'tell me you didn't get the comment without telling me you didn't get the comment'
This went from being "WTF is Hangman talking about?" to "Ahh THIS is where it all started"
Listening to Page it felt like seeds were being planted for a Punk heel turn/nobody knows the real Punk. Watching back it definitely feels more real than that
@@robertwarf3316 tony schiavone's facials were like wtf? lol
I thought Hangman Page was going to turn heel💯
Bro when I first saw this promo… i was like so confused. I was thinking exactly “WTF is this dude talking about”
and 11 months later everything hangmang said is relevant
Punk: this is not personal.
Page: and I took that personally.
Bahahaha.
Tony Schiavone's reaction in the background is priceless. He's like a passenger on the Titanic realizing the ship is heading straight for an iceberg.
Seen this a few times. Never caught the look on his face until you pointed it out.
Tony is like WTF is this goof talking about? And more importantly why he took the mic out my hands?
Tony is completely confused by what Hangman is saying, he has zero idea where Adam is going with all this. Even as a viewer I was confused too
Almost like his face when the bucks aired the backstage footage of punk and jungle boy the other night
@@jimkhana007 I respectfully disagree. This look was confusion and “how do I get this interview back on track” look. Last night look was embarrassment “like we really about to do this BS” look.
"I don't know why your so angry, I don't know why your taking this personally" -CM PUNK
lol
“I told you what I was going to do to you, I said I was going to destroy you. I said I was going to annihilate you”-ADAM PAGE. he didn’t give punk very much to work with. In fact, I think punk was very nice here considering what it seems like happened, which is that after weeks of Tony Kahn gushing about how great Punk has been for business, the kids from Reseda got hurt feelings and got in Page’s ear. Masturbatory bret hart matches sounds like something they would say. They wanted him out because he took the attention off of the boys and put it on to the men.
@@vapatriot6012funny cause bucks matches are closer to watching others masterbate than a coherent story anyday
He also tried to give Hangman his props even though he got blindsided by him, I don't blame Punk for burying this company because they're really children.
@@thecoolguyman587 cry. Fed MARK.
This is a great segment!! I hope nothing bad happens after this!
😂
😂 duude
LOL
It's like reading the Bible and hoping that Jesus will be safe and sound all the time😅
@@cli260 Ermagerd!!! Spoilers!!!!!1~😡😡😡😡😡
The look on Punk's face when he asks why Page is taking this personally, is very telling. He seems genuinely surprised that Page is acting the way he is
Hangman didn't want to lose to Punk. "It's just business" Punk says.
Punk didnt want to win too, strictly business
Page knew his reign of terror as the worst champion in AEW history was coming to an end and couldn't accept he was also a fake cowboy with a one dimensional horse shoe gimmick shoved up his skinny indy a$$
7:57 you can hear “You owe Cabanna Money”
@@forgottenmma3694 He said " you've lost your damn mind "
For something Punk didn’t know what was coming, his comeback was really good.
Bitw man
He’s pretty quick witted
Was the punch planned or what?
@@adheva8911yes, he said to Helwani that ending was him receiving a punch and put Hangman over, the only part he respect.
Or page don't know how high stakes promo work
This is the single biggest promo in recent history.
This is the promo that led us to Brawl Out. This is where AEW began to lose its luster. Right here. This moment.
Could this be the same as the finger poke of doom?
This is where softboy phil showed his true colors
@@ChoClateMilk2 No this is where Clique behavior prevailed because Hangman believed Punk got Colt taken off TV, and wanted to be the cool kid and not say anything that him and Punk went over, and Punk had to improvise on the spot because he was so confused as to why Hangman was taking their match so personally, but sure, Elite were right the whole time lol
@@Hunterese123 lol no, punk can't handle it.. rollins cut the same exact promo on him like 2 months ago and he looked like he wanted to cry again. believe whatever dirtsheet you want, i dislike hypocrite phil
@@ChoClateMilk2 Okay but again, stuff you go over vs just going out there and changing the complete point of the promo are two different things. Punk literally had to come up with something cuz Hangman was making no sense
Who would have thought this promo would have led to Survivor Series 2023!?
Me
They need to use it in the hype video😂😂
It lead to the best Night 2 WM of all time.
Your mom
The ripple effect from this promo has been astonishing.
Not really but okay
Yes, really @@KadenHartley
@@KadenHartley actually, yes really
@@robertstitches9517 CM punk was in the wrong and Tony and the whole AEW company as a whole deserve a apology. And you know it
@KadenHartley apology for what?
This promo has so many hidden layers to it and as time passes each layer becomes revealed.
It really doe, from Punk's face and his sort of confused and uncomfortabable posture after hangman talks about workers rights, you can tell he felt some type of way, and was waiting for his receipt, which he gave him
It also didn't help Punk broke his foot a week after he beat Page at Double or Nothing, diving into the stands. If that didn't happen, Punk likely has another great summer like he did in 2011. Instead, that kinda killed his momentum and he ended up dwelling on Page's stupid comments in this segment.
Can you explain this entire scenario in a nutshell?
@@smokast9769page goes into business for himself and ruins AEW.
You owe Cabana money.
Unacceptable thing for the “champion” to say next to a live mic with 1,000,000 or so viewers.
"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled is cinvincing the whole world he doesn't exist and all of you mindless sheeps fell for it" ~ CM Punk, 2005
MJF said this in 2022
Mjf 2022
Punk said it first in 2005
Sheeps eh?
MJF said it, Punk embodied it.
I actually dig punks response, to be thrown under the bus like that and to think of something with a bit of coherency within a drop of a hat is why he’s so good on the mic.
It's like he went from confusion to professionalism. He had to be thinking "why are you acting like this" then had to get into the mode of "ok we have business to do, let me try to get back to telling a coherent story.."
@@paulstarling2442what was incoherent about what Hangman said?
rambling about the quiet moments and protecting AEW from Punk, I guess?@@awkwardninja5738
@@awkwardninja5738Hangman is an asshole for this.
His response was basically “iz only game why you heff to be mad”
This promo had a very weird vibe the moment I saw it. It was formatted weirdly. Punk looked legitimately uncomfortable at times. Now we know why.
Yeah because Hangman wasn't man enough to actually talk to Punk like an adult backstage and chose to come out and scream and yell in riddles in front of the world. Punk realized what Hangmans problem was and couldn't believe what a little coward bitch he was being lmao.
It's a work.
@@gts8919 right 😊
Bc hangman went into business for himself bc he knew the elite weren’t as over or as good of wrestlers as the likes of punk danielson and MJF. Hangman had a worse title reign than moxleys interim reign. He was cool with FTR who the bucks hate, he wrestles with psychology unlike omega, he was the draw not them, so the elite and Jericho spread lies to meltzer.
@@gts8919 nope
After the Ariel interview, I actually feel sorry for Punk, having this dropped at his feet on live TV. What an absolute pro, for not only handling Adam Page, but dominating him.
THAT is a champion.
This is now such a pivotal moment in AEW history!
Yeah, because it might be the end of the company lol
@@chop54321 I mean , considering that they have their UK tour next year , more West Coast dates planned next year , and the collabs with other Wrestling companies whenever they need to
You're just exaggerating
@@chop54321 and the videogame as well
People are either moving on or TK really made a miracle and folks made amends backstage already
nah this moment right here ended all the momentum aew had
Yeah, for all the wrong reasons
Who’s here after MMA Hour ?
All of us, lol. I can see the moment Punk was caught off guard when he says to Hangman, I don't know why your taking this so personally, Hangman was going off right at he start of the promo
Thank you Tony Khan, Hangnail, The Buckeroo's, Jungle J*ckoff and gang for giving us CM Punk @ WrestleMania 40.
Edge better 🤡
@@sandeepkapal4115Cocaine is one hell of a drug 😂
@@sandeepkapal4115lmfao edge aint a draw 😂
See what happened to the ratings after Punk left? Edge hasn't brought any of them back.
Fragile mind. Fragile ego. Fragile body
4:18 genuine reaction from Tony, the goof went off-script
I'm just happy Tony Schiavone gets to do a proper interview without getting interrupted.
"Shut your mouth, Schiavone!"
"Tony, cut the shit!"
I’m liking this “Punk Is Not The Guy Y’all Think He Is” Angle. Need them to build on that.
We know Punk is a douchebag in real life & a total mark for himself, he's his generations Bret Hart
ok but where is the story ??
it's just punk with his gold contract against a world skinny champion who appear only 1 time per 2 weeks :p
@@marcelficoul3618 that's the point aew is really bad in storytelling and character work except mjf and wardlow there is no storylines going in big ppv DON
And punk is not the guy we he is has already happened and Eddie Kingston did it lot better than hangman
Hangman is worst champion
Been doing that since the Eddie feud
Wonder where it goes from here.
The promo that changed the culture of AEW
This was AEW's fingerpoke of doom.
And they just aired their "Bash at the Beach 2000." What a joke of a company.
Love that this promo will now be analyzed frame-by-frame for all time like the Zapruder film
Back and to the left,back and to the left.
If there is a guy in the audience with an umbrella indoors, his significance will be revealed 😂
Provided said individual is not just Danhousen😒
Page is just the fall guy
Let’s not be dramatic now
Shout out to Zapruder 😂😂
Punk and Tony's face tells it all. Punk keeps giving him a "you sure you wanna do this?" Face and tony is having flashbacks to late wcw xD
Seeing Punks face now that i realise what's going on is priceless i could just imagine what he was thinking in that situation
Punching in Page's face 👊 🤜 🤛 ✊️ 👊
Tony's face has it all🤣
He knew Adam went off script, and he was very nervous
Yep. He cringed. Then, he was looking for a real fight to possibly break out.
It’s very interesting watching this after the mma hour interview. You can see punk slowly realize what is happening. I’ve always been 50/50 about punk, eventhough I’m from Chicago myself, but this has pushed me to be a complete fan. What a boss having to think on his feet like that. I can’t even imagine the pressure. It’s interesting cause I remember watching this live and felt like it didn’t feel right, that something was definitely off the rails with it only to find out that that’s exactly what was going on.
Also, Al Snow’s comments about why this was such a disservice and a betrayal of trust in a business that demands it really set an interesting tone too with it all. It’s almost like punk is searching to see if he can truly trust he will do the job still. What a pulled back curtain moment honestly and a part of pro wrestling history. I had no idea that’s what I was watching live.
Makes you think how many more moments there are like this that we never will know about
Such a great comment and I agree. I was just thinking what a pro Punk is here to actually cut a great promo from Page's dogshit shoot promo. Punk made that interesting for the fans. Page was heated and just wanted to get his point across which didn't make any goddamn sense 😂 Also, I'm pretty sure Page wasn't supposed to give punk a right hook. Dude was all over the place.
Remember when Punk had a match with Bobby Fish, and Fish kicked out right at 3? That was another one.
Who's here after Cm Punk's interview?
Nope it sucked
Update: One Year Later and nothing has been the same since this promo aired, it changed everything about AEW. If they ever make a Dark Side of the Ring episode about the "Fall Of AEW" this would be the start of the end moment.
After Punk came out in Chicago, this could do with another update.
Cry more
Far from the fall of aew
At the time, I thought this was a weird segment for a face vs face, but this was actually Stephen Woltz talking to Phil Brooks.
But for real?
@@dftmmwgitd yup
Bullshit. I still smell a work. You look at Punk's entire body of work since he arrived in AEW. He was having fun. Dude straight up said he "fell back in love" with pro wrestling. Fast forward to the "Media scrum". I have zero doubts Punk was setting up future matches between MJF, Hangman and maybe even Omega by talking shit. The Colt Cabana stuff was addressed because he was tired of being vilified for it, but everything else came off like typical Punk promo schtick. Then I believe Punk finally got the official word regarding his arm injury and being out 7-8 months. So what now? Couldn't do the "interim" shit again. Had to come up with something different. Hence the locker room "brawl" with the ELITE. Hear me out. It'll make sense. You see, I also believe Kenny came back too early as well and still needed more time to heal. They were able to finish their PPV matches but knew backstage they were going to need significantly more time off. So TK "strips" them of the belts and has matches that will drum up interest and ratings while giving his stars more time to heal. As far as the brawl goes, I already dug up several links that proves that there were ZERO police reports or interactions following the brawl (contrary to what was reported). The only headscratcher I have is why the Bucks were included. Probably to sell the work? Maybe they've been a little banged up too? I'm just not buying that a billionaire businessman would let an employee openly trash his company and not cut him off. It stinks I tells ya!!
@@hruiz3308 any heat that this media scrum has will be gone by the time Punk comes back.
@@dftmmwgitd you stupid if you believe that.
The exact moment that the AEW honeymoon period came to a sudden, direct end
Combination of this and Cody (a founder) leaving the company

All this over Colt Cabana 😂
And one year later, over ‘Jungle’ Jack Perry.
Like seriously??
Let’s ruin the BIGGEST star this company has, because we love to record TH-cam videos with another guy never on TV, and hand out with this young kid who doesn’t listen to experienced veterans 😆
Come on, man.
The Elite boys are lame…
Colt got so many boy toys defending him fr
But still colt was never wrong in his beef with punk
@@AdrianBeegoatz Punk wasn't the biggest star from aew , that is mox
@@masterxstevenstones6496 I don't think you know what the word "star" means.
When the "Downfall of AEW" documentary comes out, this promo will be analyzed as the spark that ignited the flames.
Before Adam tried to bury punk in this promo, notice how Punk puts him over on television. Punk’s giving him props saying that he earned the championship. And hangman put him down in a shoot. Talk about disrespect.
Christ you guys are insane. get a hobby
Here again after the Punk interview in the MMA Hour
Same 😂
I thank Adam for saving AEW, because of that we are having one hell of a RDTWM this year, can't wait for Seth vs Punk
Well it might be Cody vs Punk at this point and I'm happy with that

@@Daniel-Rain-YT Lmao. Go watch New Japan Vanilla Midget paradise.
Ratings would be improved by joe
Seth vs Drew with punk on commentary is the greatest WM event in over 20 years? Sad
I’m digging the whole "Punk is actually the villain here, but the fans just don't see it yet" narrative. Saw a tweet last night that punk wearing black and Hangman wearing white was no coincidence. Crowd is split right now, as it should be, but regardless of where the title lands come Sunday, I don't think it will be split for long. Punk will show his true colors and Hangman will look even more like the biggest grassroots babyface in the company. I think even if Punk wins it's only so that you can add prestige to the belt AND later on make Page the only 2x champion.
The next few months should be some damn good TV!
Man it would be cool if punk entered double or nothing with his old theme "This Fire Burns".
How is Punk the villain here? That was a total baby face promo.
Aew fan theories are so random
I saw that NO COINCIDENCE tweet also
Page should never hold the belt again until he ups his game. Terrible promo skills and charisma, very boring champion. A glorified indy wrestler. Nothing about him suggests a larger than life champion. Chalk and cheese here vs Punk in all facets of pro wrestling skills
@@Reyban26 dude, you're weird for seeing things at face value.
"The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn't exist."
At this moment, the pipe bomb became a time bomb.
Ahhh
lol it's like physically watching the titanic sail straight into that iceberg
It gets funnier the more you think about it
Page ruined EVERYTHING because of Colt Cabana of all people 😂😂
This was the "Hangman going into business for himself" that CM Punk was talking about
I came here after the presser. I'm confused. What exactly did Page say that was so wrong? Just seemed like a good promo to me....
@@derekjones2835 same. Where’s the colt cabana reference?
@@viciouscesar just listened to Cornette. Apparently, smart 'marks' knew that Page was referring to Colt Cabana. It all seems like a work to me. It's working cause i'm interested.
@@derekjones2835 he started making cm punk the heel to end up looking like a baby face.
Punk then did the shake hand bit, to remind everyone he’s supposed be the face. To salvage the promo.
@@pahwraith ah. Ok. Now the 'going into business for himself' remark from Punk makes sense. The promo Page cut did come across as face-like.
It does all still feel like a work though.
After what happened at the All Out Presser, i had to revisit this segment.
Safe to say that this was the straw that broke the camels back. Especially after what happened with CM Punk Recently.
Well, safe to say that this caused a lot of craziness to occur in the Wrestling world.
Same here 😭
Yessirrr
Yeah Hangman looked like a punk (no pun intended) in this segment lol
mee too, but I don't realize what was so bad about what HAP said
@@matthiasconrad8418 its not about what was said, its about that not being what was supposed to have been said. To me early Punk was giving HAP his props and doing a face v face promo, but then Hangman went into business for himself to try and get heat on and bury the guy the company had decided was gonna be the top babyface and champ going forward.
What a promo! Surely that blonde haired wrestler went on to great things.
Once again CM Punk ends up being the reason eyeballs come to AEW.
How many views has this clip gotten in the last 3 days?
These promos come off completely different now, and it's FANTASTIC!
Pipe Bomb 2 has changed everything.
You mean the gripebomb? 😂
"I don't know why you are so angry, you are talking in circle and it's a big riddle". ~ CM Punk
So, yeah CM Punk had no idea where this promo is heading because that wasn't planned.
Hangman was angry over Punk for some reason and he cut a promo that wasn't suppose to go down.
@@littlechange Some AEW wrestlers feel unrest about CM punk creative control.
@@lolipopi503 which is BULL because some of them are benefiting from being executives in the company, but ALSO being active wrestlers on the roster.
Some of them are benefiting from being best friends with said executives
So I don’t see the problem, they are all playing precisely the same exact “game” as punk. The only difference is that fandom blinds us from seeing the “homegrown” AEW guys as “backstage politicians”
But that’s literally what it is
@@BlackFlightNY the only idiots that side with the elite & this fake cowboy are the Reddit wrestling community, any real fan and 75% or more of the live shows are people that want to see punk or are wearing punk merch. It’s only clowns in small comment sections trying to make this out to be punks fault
The fact that Punk is asking Hangman to shake his hands, something that MJF, the biggest heel in AEW wanted Punk to do, and the fact that he is playing mind games with Hangman by making him angry, planning for him to be punched by Hangman only to get into Hangman's head. Also the fact that recently, he has been using the "Am I the good guy?" part a bit, I have a feeling Punk is turning heel at DoN. They are all reference to his likely heel turn. Both MJF and Kingston said Punk is always acting like a good guy when in reality he's the opposite and now Hangman's also saying Punk has been doing "the opposite" and has no respect for him, Punk might snap and turn heel.
And when he always says "it's all business" that's already a foreshadowing.
Punk's always been at his best as a heel
I think ur right
Punk is in his head.
The fact punk got exposed as a fraud in ufc was hilarious also
2022: "What a great promo by Hangman Adam Page."
2024: "What a bad business decision by Hangman Adam Page."
It wasn’t a good promo, I was confused by what he was saying. Also I felt the genuine disdain Adam had towards Punk during this segment.
It was a shit promo in 2022 too. Bro sucks 😂
I've been saying this all along. Even took the slings and arrows from those that jumped to the Punk bangwagon. I was right then. I remain right today
Ot was cheeks in 2022 too!
I can’t remember at that time anyone thinking that was a great promo. It was a lot of confusion.
Knowing a bit more of the context since this promo was dropped had made this promo legendary.
That was intense. Doesn't matter who walk out as the champion at DoN, i believe it's gonna be a great match.
Also as intense as punk vs Mickey Gall 😂
@@OfficialGobbledyGooker he's not a mma fighter he's the best pro wrestler
Yeah that's definitely was intense I was starting to believe and still kind of wonder if hangman really was just that pissed.
Like MJF vs Wardlow
It better be Hangman.
"protecting AEW FROM you," Is a great line. It can be used in so many other situations
*proceeds to kill AEW*
Who’s here after the CM Punk interview with Ariel Helwani
LITERALLY why I’m here lol I stopped their video around 55 minutes to come here and watch the promo
When you don't have anything interesting to say, START YELLING!
The fact that we as fans have no clue as to where this is going is the reason why I love AEW! Saw someone say a heel turn, but from hangman maybe… all I can say is I’m pumped for DoN
A Hangman heel turn would be good. The story writes itself - the fighting champion overshadowed by the bigger stars decides he will no longer play by the rules and instead become a vicious pyscho to beat respect out of people
THIS. AEW is doing something incredible by keeping people guessing and not making it clear babyface/heel, at least not yet. It's amazing two see you incredible talents going at it with no clue who's winning at the PPV. You love to see it.
@@bobbybeard1497 If AEW is smart and wants to make a smart Business move you have Punk beat Page Punk is the bigger star more over has better charisma a better character Punks only getting older strike the iron why it’s Hot at your biggest PPV of the year against and have the Summer of Punk 3 Page is still young and it be better storyline wise MJF beating Punk to become champion
@@joeyskywalker1322 I'm thinking Page beats CM Punk at DoN. They shake hands, it's a feel good moment, then Punk hits Page. Punk turns heel, the feud lasts a while, but it'll end with Punk picking up the title from Page, and having a great heel run with it afterwards.
It's going like this actually and it's pretty obvious. CM Punk will win the title to eventually lose it to MJF. See this a mile away
Page just yelled and screamed and Punk owned him just standing there
You can see how worried Schiavoni was. He knew that Page was going off script.
Your in denial
@@KadenHartleydenial? What do you mean?
Back when they had ratings
Still can't get over how Tony Schiavone looks like he's about to turn heel on Hangman throughout this promo 😂😂
I'd call it a face turn
@@NationalSportsEntertainmentNSE fair point 😂
This was the promo that signed AEW’s death warrant
turns out going into business for yourself in a scripted sport is fucking stupid
It got rid of their worst wrestler and they replaced him with Edge who's one of the best in history.
@@alphanerd7221I bet you were sobbing your eyes out when you were writing this 😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@Tom85AVFC This is the kind of delusional thinking you get from AEW haters. This is why people don't respect you.
@@alphanerd7221 how much dirt have you got under your nails right now?
It’s so interesting to watch this with context now, knowing this was not planned. CM Punk looks so much better coming out of this now. CM Punk is trying to be so respectful in this promo, Hangman is the one going crazy, saying he has no respect for Punk, just bitching about him live on tv, this was so unprofessional, blindsiding Punk with this, can’t really blame Punk after this. Hilarious that Hangman claims his promo was going to destroy Punk, when in reality it destroyed AEW
Crazy to say, this promo started it all lmaooo
This is an example when you choose COUNTERFEIT over something that DRAWS money.
I'm loving how when Punk talks, there's both cheers, but an audible undercurrent of booing. And when Hangman speaks, you hear the boos, but you also hear the cheers that get louder as he gets more impassioned.
People are getting into this and neither one of these men are boring the fans.
I personally will always be in Punk's corner. I'm starting to thing Hangman is lashing out at phantoms at this point, because he's clearly seeing something that isn't even there.
Hangman is like Captain America here. I'm not comparing them, but we can guess why Hangman is doing what he is doing.
1. He's afraid. CM Punk is like the only guy in AEW who can take over his place. Before CM Punk debuted, it was only Hangman in everyone's mouth.
2. Hangman is actually a bad guy, who's only realizing that now. Think about it, he didn't like his friends getting all the success, so he left the group. Then found some drifting lovable losers who helped him get to his success, and as soon as he became the world champ, he left them too. Hangman is a loner, and when he dislikes being lonely, he wants the world to come to him and caress him, and when he dislikes that, he leaves. He does what he likes, regardless whether he hurts anyone or not. But god forbid someone hurts him.
3. Hangman's identity is that belt. Think about it. His identity used to be his friends, it was The Elite. Without that he was nothing, but he wanted to be something. So he left the group, and failed, and his identity became a beer bottle. The Elite symbolized his incapability. The Beer 🍺 symbolized his failures. The AEW world title is the only thing that symbolized his success, that made him feel good about himself. He doesn't like the idea of losing that as well, making him bitter and cold.
I can't wait to see Hangman lose the belt because he is so much fun without it. I can't wait to see him mad and angry, both at fans and everyone else. I can't wait to see Dark Order say the truth to his face, that Hangman's biggest enemy is Hangman himself and he can't do anything about it. He is just that. That's his character. And that's a fucking interesting character.
I also can't wait to see Punk show the world his real self. I can't wait for Omega to come back and it's Omega vs Punk. I can't wait to see the crowd finally realizing that Hangman was right all along, as bad as he was, Punk was worse. Hangman has embraced his inner shadow, meanwhile Punk will put everyone under his and keep them in darkness. That's who Punk is. When his shadow isn't accepted, he projects his shadow onto others.
These two men have so much in their tank.
@@XXsirstrawhatXX There was kind of a funny tweet I saw about that:
Punk: I'm an asshole!
Kingston: Punk is an asshole!
MJF: Punk is an asshole!
Hangman: Punk is an asshole!
Fans: What is Hangman talking about?
@@TOP0PERCENT Interesting analysis, but I'm not sure how that would make him like Captain America (Unless there's some character arc in the comics that I'm not aware of where Steve is super jealous and insecure)
@@Lunacorva I forgot to add that CM Punk is like the Tony Stark to Hangman's Cap. Not necessarily similiar characters, but their conflict seems so. Hangman believes Punk is a bad guy with bad examples, and Punk believes everything about Hangman came from his superior offering. I personally don't want to see these two resolving their conflict in a random tag team match against Team Taz a year from now. AEW has been very dry when it comes to building connections, all the wrestlers are either in factions, or in tag teams, or simply feud with each other for months and forget about it. Having Hangman and Punk do this long time 'two anti heroes contradicting each other' would be so much entertaining than having them feud for a month, then a death match or two and then moving on.
Something big needs to happen in AEW, something that threatens the norm. Like a Nexus return or a nee faction destroying AEW, attacking everyone from the commentators to the referees.
This should continue randomly with no clues or solutions, Punk would try to be the leader and call them out, but Hangman would preach everyone to keep an eye on him. Punk then could retaliate by saying "Not even your friends can trust you, why do think these people would?"
That could lead to another layer in their rivalry.
Thanks hang nail for this awesome wrestlemania main event we getting this year
Punk turns heel... The promo sealed that. So many things in his promo gave that away...Summer of Punk 3
Who's here after the Seth promo hinted at THIS promo? O.O
Thank you page you brought cm punk home
Yeah
You mispelled Jungle dog lmao

Absolutely love this

Punk is destroying aew

The moment where Hangman Page killed AEW
It was actually before this when the Bucks and Page went to the dirt sheets claiming Cabana being moved of TV to ROH was because of Punk. This definitely opened the floodgates though.
It’s alive and thriving.
@@atikulislam6359 thriving is a stretch. More alive and stale right now. I also don't know if they're in a place to recover without an overhaul.
@@geneanthony3421 They have sold out every single ppv in last year. Sold out the revolution months ago. Sold out 40000 tickets for all in but they're stale. A new tv deal is on the way and a streaming deal can also be added. They're thriving.
thriving lol. The numbers don't lie. They are dwindling fast. @atikulislam6359
I like hangman’s phrase “i am defending all elite wrestling from you”. I’ve been waiting for punk to cut all the crowd pandering. He was fun to watch when he debuted but we get to see some heel with his creative ideas and that might be the best version of punk we get to see
I cant wait for the mask to slip. It's obvious since his arrival punks pandering has been phony and I think MJF calling him out on it previously is gonna turn out to be true. Punk is gonna be the bad guy and it was built since day 1
It makes sense now
But none of us told him to. It's just because of cuck cabano gives elite level rimjobs to the elite
Love how the crowd wasn't really behind Hangman but at the end they were cheering him
He's becoming a master of that to be honest
It's hard to go against Punk in terms of crowd support. But it's not impossible. Hangman is showing he can Hang, man (sorry I had to)
He won the crowd.
@@johndotcue As long as he show passion in his promos and continue to deliver banger matches I don't mind lmao , I can see an anti-hero 'turn' in the future tho

Hits different knowing what we know now. Shoot or work, eyes will be glued to the screen for what happens next.
Facts even at the time I knew Page said some real shit in this promo
Word this is why I love aew cause you don’t know what’s real or work.🔥💯
Hangman went into business for himself. An unprofessional and overrated prick.
Who knew that seemingly out of place "workers' rights" line would eventually lead to the crazy events after All Out
Who's here after watching CM Punk exposing AEW on Ariels podcast
This promo/feud sent Punk on a warpath.
Rightfully so in hindsight this guy went into business for himself
@@JohnSmith-wh2obYup, I have a feeling "The Elite" saw Punk as a threat because Tony was pulling the belt off (their boy) Hangman shortly after he had just won it.
So they got all pissy and it led to this unprofessional shit and you know the rest.
The beginning of the gripe bomb era.
*"I'm not just defending the AEW title from you, I'm defending the entire AEW from you!"* Beautifully said by Hangman!😫❤
I mean, it would be a cool line, if it made a damn lick of sense. How do you "defend" a company from a guy who is on their side, has driven several of their biggest ticket/merch sales, gotten them a ton of main stream press, etc? Is he defending AEW from making more money and becoming more popular? What exactly is he defending it from?
@@KaiserSoze679 he means we dont have to watch him as a champion, with all eyes on him. Its like saying the fans dont want to watch more of him
@@KaiserSoze679 yep! his animosity towards Punk is a bit confusing! That line in particular made no sense whatsoever! With Kingston there was actual history to back up the kayfabe hatred. With Page it feels a bit forced!
Page comment doesn't make much sense when Jericho was with AEW from the beginning as its first champ, and he's considered a WWE/F talent, AEW was never entirely homegrown.
@@KaiserSoze679 i seen someone say that theyre having something going on where punk is actually the bad guy but the fans dont see it, like in the eddie kingston fued and the mfj fued punk has been slowly showing his true colors and both of them try to point it out but the fans just cheer it off. Also seen something that points out how forcing hangman to shake his hand is something MJF would do which i definitely agree with. So its kind of like hangman sees through punks facade and hes trying to protect the company from punk because hes the only one who truly knows it, but the fans dont see it
Man, this hasn’t aged well for AEW 😂
And to think this shoot happened all because hangman ASSUMED punk was the reason colt cabana got fired when in reality he was still employed lol. Smooth move page lol
Who's watching this with brand new eyes after everything we've learned?
For how short this feud has been, it has been built to perfection imo. Both guys were brilliant in this segment, and I adored the contrast in their characters. With Hangman being paranoid of Punk while still having that fire in him, while Punk was much more calm and respectfull but also looked kind of scared of him. The "I will defend AEW from you" was such a great line, and it tells me that Punk, may not be the hero some people think he is. Maybe Eddie and MJF were right about him...
This was an excellent promo segment and I cannot wait for their eventual match.
Punk was being polite. Hangman sees through the smoke and mirrors.
Do you want Hangman to repeat what Kevin Nash did 24 years ago, and just hand the belt over to Hollywood Hulk Hogan? That would be like letting anyone make out with your wife.
CM Punk is coming to take the title, and has notable credentials on his resume. How is Hangman supposed to respond?
It won't be as intense as Wardlow vs MJF, but i hope Hangman gives an electrifying performance........
False.. hangman is boring.
@@Titteeeee could you be a little more creative? Actually, don't waste your breath, don't want you to bore me anymore........
@@Titteeeee No u
@@Titteeeee wrong
Hangman Page will be the man remembered for destroying the biggest period in the history of AEW. They’d never been bigger before and they’ll never be bigger than this again.
Nah
Somewhere down the line (probably when he foolishly injured himself jumping into the barricade) Phil lost his balls.
Bro got triggered by another man that wasn't even sharing a program with, calling spots HE USED TO DO (Dog collar match anyone?) "dumb internet bullsht"
Guaranteed that he would've picked a problem with Darby's glass spot if he was still there, would've picked a problem with Ospreay's wrestling style, and many others.
Nah, AEW doesn't need to devolve into PG sht in order to be successful, Hanger started to roll the ball in getting this guy out.
@@EddiePGRPlayer420 "AEW doesn't need to devolve into PG shit in order to be successful" As if they're successful right now 😂
Back when they could still draw a full house.
They're definetely setting up a CM Punk heel turn
Nah hangman heel punks to calm an collected with free rent space in pages head
Most likely.
They should've...
looool
CM Punk would have turned heel. If they told him he was supposed to be a heel😁
The most consequential promo in AEW history.
Watching this back, you can see how Punk manipulated the story and it’s great lol. He used Cena’s method to say it wasn’t personal, making the other person look weird for being so personal about it. Then used Heymans method of building up his opponent, cause he knew he was going over and it makes Punk look better to beat a credible opponent.
too bad the eliet babies took it up the ass and instead of trying to make it a big deal for the company they made it a big deal for the news outlets and lost the biggest star they had
Cause he knew Page was being an idiotic immature prick and nonsensical with this attempted "work shoot" promo. Punk had to try and stay professional to sell tickets.
Looking back on this post All Out - Punk's face changed halfway through as he knew this wasn't the right direction for the promo, Tony knew something was up too by his face, and that punch looked pretty real to me after watching it a few times.
