>>9674211Concoct it? No. Have it already in the pipeline, realize you have a grievous injury and decide this is the best shot you have to do something when you know you’re riding the sideline and cooling off for at least 6 months to a year? I could see it.
I’m not going to convince you either way. People still argue whether Montreal was a work or not. Too many things point to it being a work. Just like there’s some really weird things about Montreal that point to a work. Not least of all, Tony coming out in several normie publications and saying he’s going to start doing worked shoots and leveraging social media and non traditional platforms to tell those worked shoots. If you can remember back to a few months before the scrum what was the big dirt sheet story that was going around? MJF was leaving, it was a shoot, but he just happened to be injured. You see how that played out.
No witnesses in 2022 to a fight? Punk’s legit injury and the AEW store is still the official CM Punk merch store? Punk the guy who’s owned his gimmick his entire career and probably cares more about his image and rights than just about any wrestler ever? I’m not saying he’s not a weird crybaby that could be triggered by hangmaam saying the words “workers rights”. But a 6 person brawl with biting and dog killing and everything else while you have a torn tendon and busted up foot. Nah.
