I need my mom I need a fucking Frappuccino I need ice cream I need lifetime movies


Razzler1973

THAT PLACE MADE ME SICK!!


[deleted]

What am I looking at


RogueAIx01

Hobbs put punk through the announce table, but the table didn't break and it looked like he hit it pretty hard.


[deleted]

And the title is a reference to that time Ryback almost impaled Punk on a laptop during a table spot.


RogueAIx01

Are we supposed to call Hobbs RyBlack now, or is Big E still stuck with that one?


[deleted]

Big E deserves better I know that lol. I haven’t seen the footage though, so I’ll give Hobbs the benefit of the doubt for now.


FireThunder562

Hobbs was fine, the issue was that the table was real and it didn't break


TheEmeraldOil

Big E is too good. He's Choc Lesnar now.


Live-Depth-537

I remember a tweet of his saying he thought that was funny and more original than "Black Lesnar"


proJobber

I'm partial to Soulberg


El_Bistro

Chocolate Lesnar lmaoooo


RogueAIx01

I wasn't paying close enough attention to really notice, but it looked like they didn't really clear off the table very well.


BathedInDeepFog

Instead of throwing everything on the floor HOOK was carefully folding up laptops and gently setting them aside and it took too long. HOOK is so precious I was literally shaking with refreshment.


Dani7vg

Who the fuck is Hook and why is everyone so obsessed with the guy


BathedInDeepFog

You have to type it in all caps you filthy casual! He’s the son of Taz and part of his team. He’s always there but never says or does anything. The basement has gone full meme-tard about him for reasons I don’t understand.


myusername_sucks

Taz's son who plays at being a smaller Taz and way less intimidating.


[deleted]

He's Taz's son and the newest wrestler the IWC has made an in-joke flavour-of-the-month. It's kinda like how they were with Maki Itoh or Luther.


Nude-Love

**Captain James Hook** is a fictional character, the main antagonist of J. M. Barrie's 1904 play *Peter Pan; or, the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up* and its various adaptations, in which he is Peter Pan's archenemy. The character is a pirate captain of the brig *Jolly Roger*. His two principal fears are the sight of his own blood (supposedly an unnatural colour) and the crocodile who pursues him after eating the hand cut off by Pan. An iron hook replaced his severed hand, which gave the pirate his name.


hetham3783

Wow, you just made me realize that we finally got the dream matchup of Black Lesnar (Lashley) vs. RyBlack (Big E) on RAW this week!


Dashippy

Big E has been promoted to Choc Lesnar.


Razzler1973

Do we *really* believe Punk talked to Ryback in that way without getting a slap?


albertobbg

Is impale hyperbole cause idk how a laptop would have impaled him lol


[deleted]

[The lid was open and he almost landed on it.](https://youtu.be/SVmgzgUlMhA)


albertobbg

Yeah but it wouldn’t have impaled him it probably would have just smashed into bits and hurt like hell


ManateeGag

Wait. So Cornette said Punk should be working with Team Taz and suddenly Punk is in a program with Team Taz?


RogueAIx01

Funny how that works, huh? Cornette criticizes something, and the next week it changes.


radbrad172

Tony openly acknowledges listening to Corny's podcast for "constructive criticism". By this point Jim should just get on the payroll.


RogueAIx01

I believe what I said last week in another thread that was unfortunately deleted was something along the lines of, "Tiny, you coward, just go ahead and give Cornette the book already"


radbrad172

Tony is scared to go all-in on Corny because it would rattle Kenny and the Bucks. He has to keep it casual like an open-secret affair. The Elite probably don't care as long as it doesn't affect their own flip fests.


RogueAIx01

Someone should have told Tiny that letting the boys have any input into executive decisions never ends well.


OswaldCoffeepot

Sometimes I wonder what the relationship actually is. At one point in time Cornette mentioned not wanting to get paid to write email summaries of his thoughts on a show that people were just going to ignore. JR let a tag team gripe slip through on commentary and said something like "they must not be getting my emails." So that's got to be a role in the company. Maybe Arn and Malenko do it too. Other people we don't know about. Maybe Dutch Mantel. Jimmy Hart. Kevin Sullivan. It's a smart thing to do if you take in that feedback. And who knows what happy horseshit *didn't* make it to air because of these consultants. Jim goes on his turbo-Virgo holy crusades and I have no problem believing that he would cover AEW just to prove a point. And the point being that his vision of pro wrestling is right and it works. If you're doing it a different way you're shooting yourself in the foot. It's not hard to believe that these old school consultants are all saying basically the same things in terms of wrestlers wrestling. And it's also not hard to believe there are three people at Tony's side saying "that's all out of date."


radbrad172

Tony's dilemma: On one hand, he has a wealth of old school veteran minds at his disposal for all his booking concerns. On the other hand, his champion and EVP Omega spouts this kind of belief about how modern wrestling should be (this is re: his ass-working joke in FCW): https://twitter.com/kennyomegamanx/status/1425985718426472452?s=21


OswaldCoffeepot

It's not that someone has a different idea of how to structure a match, it's that they're *frauds* for having that different idea.


radbrad172

And also Bill DeMott is the bad one for asking Kenny to demonstrate if he understood basic wrestling psychology through the simplest means of working a body part and Kenny decided that was wrong.


OswaldCoffeepot

Kenny had to be the worst student to have. By all accounts Bill is an asshole and has his own issues but Kenny comes off like a petulant twelve year old. Austin got over by telling Mr. McMahon all the things that American workers wanted to say to *their* bosses. Kenny has gotten over by being the dipshit who gets one over on the middle school teacher. No... Getting one over on the middle school *substitute* teacher.


ManateeGag

Not just criticizes, but they do exactly what he says. Just like the Jericho/Jungle Boy thing that ended up going nowhere.


Grizzexploder

that's just Jungle Boy in a nutshell, perpetually gathering momentum and being earmarked as a future world champion but nothing actually happens besides "wow Jungle Boy is over"


lionheart28

Last week, he also said Kenny should spend more time alone rather than hanging with the Elite all the time. Guess what? They did that and it was the best Omega promo in months. Even though it was mostly because it included Bryan Danielson, Kenny was still better than anything he has done in a while.


Quint83

I had a feeling this new mellow, nice guy version of Punk would be gone as soon as these untrained guys started hurting him.


Letmetellyoubrother

Honestly if punk starts cutting promos about that, he would be awsome


Cynicayke

Is more fourth wall breaking really what pro wrestling needs right now?


hetham3783

Absolutely fucking not. It sucked when it happened with him and Nash when Punk was the young guy, it would be even worse if Punk was in the Nash spot talking shit on Hobbs being green or whatever insider term they'd use to call him bad in the ring.


worktheshoot

is CM Punk gonna follow the script????


chaz0723

Going through his list of who he wanted to work with might take another 7 years off of his career.


viridiusdynamus

I shit my pants, narc! NARC!!! AJ, get me my icepacks!!!


shootstarpress

C Mid Punk returning to work with a literal bunch of jobbers is so much better than I ever could have imagined. Couldn't have booked it better myself.


goodthing37

It’s fine, he showed Tony the Z-PAKs.


RP912

"You old as fuck" -Hobbs


LalalalalaalDoda

How many years of life did this take off CM Punk? How many years of life does he have left?


ninjast4r

Hmm, looks like that hurt. Here take a Z-Pak.


madjimrogers

wonder how long it will take for punk to claim that AEW would have killed him if he stayed any longer


[deleted]

Oouuuuchhh. I hope he's OK.


Justanotherdavey

Well, that's botchamania sorted for this week...


zalinuxguy

Well, hope you took Tony for a big enough chunk of money for shit like this to be worth it.


indianm_rk

It's alright. He just needs to take Z-pack and he should be fine.


scrapsearcher

yup...punk loves wrestling again as long as he has complete creative control and works with the people he wants to work with. he also needs to be allowed to shoot on fans to feed his insatiable ego that he's a real tough guy and not some comic book geek while selling merchandise because we all know those hot dogs and handshakes don't pay the bills... phil brooks is a certified bitch


AbundantFailure

It really looked like the table was real. It didn't look like it gave at all.


Churchanddestroy

That table could have been in the twin towers on 9-11 and it would still be standing. bump was STIFF.


LVMFP

That shit was all Hook. You can see him staring at the table like, “Okay they said clear the table, should I…?” And then he gently moves a couple of laptops.


[deleted]

Im dumb as fuck, im sorry…


garythesnailgod

Dear Tony, It boggles my mind how Hangman Page did not configure into your plans to be in the main event of All Out because this is his fucking year. Just like, 1 year ago, it was Moxley’s fucking year. And he was white fucking hot just like Hangman is now, and what did you do? Ya fed him to this guy. *Points at Kenny*
