Let’s review the epic Championship versus Championship match. After weeks of a continued build-up, CM Punk & Jon Moxley is finally getting an opportunity to wrestle each other on this blockbuster edition of AEW Dynamite. Instead of having their two stars compete at All Out, both men square off here. It’s a clash of titanic proportions.
The fans erupt when Wild Thing plays like it’s Major League or something like that. We briefly saw William Regal before Mox emerged. Cult of Personality starts & people loses their minds for Punk. One can’t deny Punk or Mox are over with the AEW audience.
Spectators retained more camera phones for CM’s famed arrival. It’s the season of Punk & whether you like Moxley or not. Crowds support him as well & he gets a reaction.
Best in the World encounters Mox.
Punk is a hero in the eyes of wrestling fans who’ve missed his presence. Jon Moxley represents The Blackpool Combat Club & Game Changer Wrestling & takes satisfaction because he can bleed. Wrestling communities adore these dream matches as if they fell from heaven.
Punk is smiling while Moxley seems focused.
Ring announcer Justin Roberts reminds everybody this is a unification match.
Both expressions get more serious. Jim Ross called Moxley the “ Blue-Eyed Battler. “ I had honestly forgotten his nickname.
A Big fight feel; Taz proclaims:
CM Punk chants & Moxley Chants fill this beautifully lit-up arena.
They lock up, and Moxley beats up Punk in the Corner. Chicago’s native son rebounds by slapping the Cincinnati out of Mox!
Punk returned the favor with repeated body shots to Jon Moxley in the opposite ring corner. Things are heating up alright. Those were awkward knee strikes from the AEW Champion against the AEW Interim Champion. Mox used his head once and headbutted ole CM. Then Punk retaliates with a kick that connected too much & injures himself. Referee Paul Turner checks on Punk & so does Doc Sampson. Mix levels him with a big clothesline. Moxley hammers Punk with forearms to his shoulder & head area. He wrenched that bad ankle & Mox then executed his Death Rider suplex. Another suplex & it’s over. Jon Moxley wins impressively. He dominated Punk & the new Undisputed AEW World Champion.
Now that play-by-play is done & it’s apparent CM Punk legitimately appeared to be injured. Staff members helped Punk backstage. Moxley celebrates in the crowd.
How can I be positive after that debacle?
First off, What is AEW thinking? Did Tony Khan get high backstage & possibly have Orange Cassidy feed him some Colorado brownies? This match set records for the wrong reasons. Who’s booking the Jacksonville Jaguars? The announcers acted like Punk’s return was premature. I possibly concur. They mentioned he had surgery to repair his foot. I understand Punk is a fighter. Anything can occur during a match. My impressions are, He got hurt following that kick to Moxley. A call to alter the finish was obvious. Why else would Moxley finish CM off so quickly? Maybe Punk came back too soon. Tony desired his assistance & forcibly rushed Punk’s reemergence.
The positive opinion, it is all part of a grander storyline. Hear me out; Punk fabricated an injury. As a result, this aided Moxley & gets over more. Punk turns heel by showing frustration & Mox embarrassed him. So AEW creative smoked the right reefer with fans watching the rematch at All Out.
My conspiracy obtains Punk sustained one unexpected injury. What if Punk acquired punishment thanks to Adam Page complaining at Khan & his friends? Somebody’s feelings were hurt backstage & Punk posed a threat to those EVPs.
Expectations lowered significantly regarding match quality. However, Mox now can brag in his promos about controlling this 10-star affair. Seriously, who knows anymore? AEW TV just became more interesting after Dynamite. Hoping Punk has a speedy recovery.
AEW quit confusing me. I want you all to do well. Why does one demand to ask for the Willie Nelson Bus Tour when watching this stuff?
