>>14283599More to the point......one would have to be a complete idiot to think CM Punk and HHH didn't sit down at some point and go over what Punk should and shouldn't be talking about on Ariel's show. CM Punk dropped the line about "guys just want to show up, wrestle, film vignettes and go home for a month" - IMO, that's what HHH was referencing: guys who literally only go to TV once every 2-3 weeks, wrestle a single match, and film promo for the next couple episodes. Hangman does that shit all the time, so does MJF, it has to be infuriating for AEW fans
I don't think it had anything to do with Ospreay or Okada specifically, more the general attitude that guys care more about getting paid than they do giving the paying fans a show. Samoa Joe, Swerve, Copeland, Okada and others are doing great showing up to the building week in and week out, and I hope it continues. Let the fans get their photo op, even if it's just a quick run-in for an angle/pullapart/whatever. Nobody wants to take a picture of a fucking LED screen because you couldn't be bothered to show up.
