Word is the promo vid was probably a mistake, as it only showed to the live audience and not on TV, and tonight was supposed to be the night he was to come back before they released him.

Latest rumor is that Daniel Bryan hasn't signed with AEW, and that there's a major push by the WWE to bring him back, to the point where AEW is now putting all their effort into the CM Punk debut since Bryan isn't a sure thing anymore.

I thought the dirtsheets had said Bryan already signed.

Dude got Covid in January, returned in February, found something irregular in his blood and that he had an inflammed heart. To the point that other than light walking, any strenuous exercise could kill him.

A lot of assholes were getting on him for supposedly "coming back fatter" which I didn't get since he looked the same to me.

He was being annoyingly cryptic about it for a while but now it makes sense why.

I mean, she hasn't won a match since returning AND got hypnotized by Alexa Bliss.

I feel like that's much much worse.

Also, Tyler Breeze was doing an interview and he basically defended WWE for their third party policy and blamed the other wrestlers for why it got shut down.

I actually buy that upon reading it since he has no real reason to lie, and I remember people like Styles and especially Paige getting in trouble with Twitch more than once for things they did/said.

He described it as basically "We were fine until some people kept being idiots and then we got a big 'Okay now nobody can do it,'" which honestly makes sense. It's dumb but it makes sense.

In an interview with Stephanie Chase of Digital Spy, QT Marshall discussed how he helped prepare Shaq for the match. But he also lied to Shaq about the table bump:

He picked up on it very quickly. Hes a wrestling fan, so the moment that you asked him what he wanted to do, he already had a whole list of things that were in his mind that he was going to do to somebody and it was just about teaching him the right way to do it without hurting himself.

He said something about maybe going through some tables and I told him, Oh it wont be that bad, well put a really thick pad underneath, which was not true. I just didnt want him to back out of it.

So it was a lot of fun, as soon as he came in the back, right away, he said, You lied to me! There was no pad under there! Thats wrestling, welcome to wrestling.

I was kinda surprised they had Christian take it off him, but they didn't really have much a choice since he's also Omega's All Out opponent, so having him lose both belt opportunities would be a very WWE thing to do.

He's very likely losing the AAA Megaweight title to Andrade tonight, so AEW probably wanted to get out ahead of things and start the "Omega desperate to hang into the AEW title at all costs" part of the storyline that you figure has to end with Hangman finally bringing him to zero.

I think its a combo of giving him however much time he needs and restructuring the show if he goes over time being preferable to giving him a hard curfew at 11 and potentially rushing him, and also wanting to make sure everyone who tuned in was immediately happy instead of just wanting these other matches to hurry up and end

Does he? Punk has the built-in excuse of not wrestling in 7 years and building his way up to being BitW again.

Also:

Tony Khan isnt done signing big names, based on a Wrestling Observer Newsletter report: Sources close to the promotion that would be alerted to such things also noted a new major AEW acquisition is coming on the heels of the deals for CM Punk and Bryan Danielson.

Got to be Adam Cole, right?

The CM Punk first day shirt money alone will be enough to afford at least 3 more big signings, just like how PSG is able to afford paying Messi All The Money without him playing a single game.
