It would be a great rating boost for the debut episode, but shouldn't they keep it for the First Dance show in Chicago next Friday?

chavo is doing the heavy lifting for andrade in the promos. smart pairing :applause:
AEW is also getting Daniel bryan apparently. wwe is basically finished when goldberg, brock and cena finally retire
Keith Lee was off for 5 months because, according to him, he had to deal with COVID and then heart inflammation, a fatally serious condition.

Peacock deal gave wwe 5 billion. They have issues... Oldberg main eventing the second biggest ppv i agrree with you is a problem but I don't think Punk and Bryan going to AEW hurts wwe.

Punk allegedly said he wants to work with young guys in AEW. He is a student of this business and he will pass the torch to those who deserve it. Danielson would do the same too.

you dont think that the biggest prime name in wrestling going to aew will hurt wwe?
the only guys that can draw a bigger crowd right now are the rock and stone cold and they're both retired

WWE can't sustain themselves on drawing crowds for past stars. That's actually what I find most boring most about their booking. They burn their biggest PPV's on those feuds
Another issue is Orton's seat at the table. He's petty and uses his influence against the people he doesn't like.
They have prime talent they can pull from NXT.
Punk himself won't kill WWE. What he symbolizes does hurt WWE. AEW is giving their fans what they want. Good example was Christian winning last night :rockon:

punk WILL kill wwe because he has a cult following and most of wwe's fans are those hipster nerds that chant cm punk every show. kids don't even watch that sh*t anymore. tbh they're more into AEW cause of jungleboy, darby allin and orange cassidy
kids are basically grown up and sick of john cena and roman reigns is a bad guy now.
they don't even have a face for their company now
and with bray wyatts firing while being popular and selling merch nobody will trust management and they won't feel like their job is safe no matter who they are. that and bryan/punk going to aew will be the beginning of the end for wwe
cm punk sold out the united center in under an hour. he can fill a stadium. nobody in wwe can do that right now
What a wild weekends.

Christian was such a cool moment. I know I complain about the old guys taking the spotlight, but I change my tune when it's someone i like :lol
Christian was one of my favorites growing up

I could turn out very badly, but Houston fans pulled it off. :applause::rockon::bowdown:
