>>7288024I’m not arguing any of that, I’m of the opinion that it kinda made Punk look like shit and he lost some mystique with me. I still love his work, but it makes me look at some in ring appearances differently.
That’s not the argument, I said in comparison to the Bucks, and some others in the company, he could hold his own. Which is a statement about the business in itself, where you used to have guys like Hansen, Shamrock, Severn, Haku, etc.
But being a shoot fighter doesn’t mean you’re a good pro wrestler, and especially vice versa. Punks one of the best in ring performers of this generation, cause he makes his shit look real when it counts, and if sometimes it looks a little worked, he brings and facilitates an emotion that can pull you in. He’s the best in AEW besides Bryan, and he’d still be the best in WWE
