>Lanza can't confirm Dave's report that Punk "went into business for himself" because he hasn't been outright told that; however, he believes it's entirely plausible
>He confirmed there is heat between Punk and Page that dates back to the bizarre "worker's right" promo cut by Page
>There was a blow-up following Hangman's promo that led to a closed door meeting with Tony
>Punk was caught off-guard by some of the points Hangman was making and felt he went into business for himself
>Punk had told people that he would never job for Page (Lanza is not sure if he said it to Hangman's face but wouldn't be surprised if he did)
>Lanza went into how there are more AEW feuds that are based off reality than we may think
>There is legitimate tension between the AEW Originals and ex-WWE stars
>Lanza does not know if Punk still feels like he won't job to Page since this was said months ago
>Lanza believes Punk did a great job of building to a match with Page regardless if he went into business with himself
>Lanza made the point that Hangman was the one who started this with a notoriously fiery Punk
>Colt Cabana being banished to ROH has pissed off most of the locker room
>He does not believe this is a work because they would be working every single person in the locker room
>"If that's a work they are working everybody, including the lockerroom. You can never discount a work, okay, and that's not me playing both sides or anything like that, you just can't in pro wrestling - especially when they're doing this elaborate MJF storyline where they're working everybody."
