Gordon: “A most transitional period — roster evolution shaping the horizon.”

🕰️ Best Promos — CM Punk’s June 27, 2011 Pipe Bomb

⭐ The Promo That Shook WWE to Its Core

On June 27, 2011, CM Punk sat cross‑legged on the RAW stage and delivered the now‑legendary Pipe Bomb, tearing into WWE’s hierarchy, calling out Cena, Vince, Triple H, The Rock, and teasing he might leave with the WWE Championship for Ring of Honor or New Japan.

⭐ Why It Mattered

Punk blurred fiction and reality, breaking WWE’s “fourth wall.”
He voiced frustrations fans already believed — favoritism, creative ceilings, corporate polish.
His mic was cut mid‑promo, giving the moment a raw, dangerous finish.
It transformed Money in the Bank 2011 into a referendum on WWE’s identity.
It launched Punk into a 434‑day title reign and cemented him as a generational promo.

CM Punk: “John Cena, while you lay there, hopefully as uncomfortable as you possibly can be, I want you to listen to me. I want you to digest this, because before I leave in three weeks with your WWE Championship, I have a lot of things I wanna get off my chest.

I don’t hate you, John. I don’t even dislike you. I do like you, I like you a hell of a lot more than I like most people in the back. I hate this idea that you’re the best – because you’re not. I’m the best. I’m the best in the world. There’s one thing you’re better at than I am and that’s kissing Vince McMahon’s ass. You’re as good at kissing Vince’s ass as Hulk Hogan was. I don’t know if you’re as good as Dwayne, though. He’s a pretty good ass-kisser. Always was and still is. Oops – I’m breaking the fourth wall. [Er winkt in die Kamera.] I am the best wrestler in the world. I’ve been the best ever since day one when I walked into this company. And I’ve been vilified and hated since that day because Paul Heyman saw something in me that nobody else wanted to admit. Yeah that’s right, I’m a Paul Heyman guy. You know who else was a Paul Heyman guy? Brock Lesnar. And he split, just like I’m splittin’, but the biggest difference between me and Brock is that I’m going to leave with the WWE Championship.

I’ve grabbed so many of Vincent K. McMahon’s imaginary brass rings that it’s finally dawned on me that they’re just that. They’re completely imaginary. The only thing that’s real is me. And the fact that day in and day out, for almost six years, I’ve proved to everybody in the world that I am the best on this microphone, in that ring, even on commentary. Nobody can touch me. And yet, no matter how many times I prove it, I’m not on your lovely little collectors’ cups, I’m not on the cover of the program, I’m barely promoted, I don’t get to be in movies, I’m certainly not on any crappy show on the USA Network, I’m not on the poster of WrestleMania, I’m not on the signature that’s produced at the start of the show. I’m not on Conan O’Brien, I’m not on Jimmy Fallon, but the fact of the matter is I should be. And trust me, this isn’t sour grapes, but the fact that “Dwayne” is in the main event of WrestleMania next year and I’m not, makes me sick!

Oh hey, let me get something straight. Those of you who are cheering me right now – you are just as big a part of me leaving as anything else, because you’re the ones that are sipping out of those collector cups right now, you’re the ones that buy those programs that my face isn’t on the cover of, and then at five in the morning at the airport, you try to shove it in my face so that you can get an autograph and sell it on eBay, because you’re too lazy to get a real job.

I’m leaving with the WWE championship on July 17 and hell, who knows, maybe I’ll go defend it in New Japan Pro Wrestling. Maybe I’ll go back to Ring Of Honor. [Punk winkt nochmal in die Kamera] Hey, Colt Cabana, how you doing? The reason I’m leaving is you people because after I’m gone you’re still going to pour money into this company – I’m just a spoke on the wheel – the wheel’s gonna keep turning and I understand that. But Vince McMahon’s gonna make money despite himself. He’s a millionaire who should be a billionaire. You know why he’s not a billionaire? It’s because he surrounds himself with glad-handing nonsensical douche bag yes-men like John Laurinaitis, who’s gonna tell him everything that he wants to hear. And I’d like to think that maybe this company will be better after Vince McMahon is dead, but the fact is, it’s gonna be taken over by his idiotic daughter and his doofus son-in-law and the rest of his stupid family.

Let me tell you a personal story about Vince McMahon. You know we do this whole bully campaign–“
Punk’s microphone is cut off and he yells, “I’ve been silenced!”

Ed: “That promo hit like a lightning bolt — sudden, shocking, and unforgettable!”

Gordon: “A most transformative moment — redefining the boundaries of wrestling discourse.”

🎙️ Desk Outro

Ed: “From ballpark brawls to Collision chaos and a historic look back at Punk’s Pipe Bomb, this week proved AEW is firing on every cylinder!”

Gordon: “Indeed. A most comprehensive chronicle — champions crowned, rivalries sharpened, and history echoing into the present.”

🟧 AEW DYNAMITE — MAY 20, 2026 (FULL MATCH‑BY‑MATCH REVIEW)

📍 Live from a packed mid‑week crowd that was red‑hot from bell to bell.

From Portland, Maine.

AEW Dynamite & Collision — May 20, 2026 Results

Credit: All Elite Wrestling, Sports Illustrated and Wrestling Inc.

The May 20, 2026 special back-to-back of AEW Dynamite and AEW Collision in Portland, Maine served as the final build to Double or Nothing. Here’s a breakdown of the key matches and moments.

Dynamite Results

Trios Match: Ricochet, Andrade El Ídolo, and Mark Davis def. Chris Jericho & The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson). The Dogs interfered, allowing El Ídolo to pin Matt Jackson. Post-match, Jack Perry hit Toa Liona with a bag of onions, sparking a brawl with The Don Callis Family, The Demand, and The Dogs — a preview of the Stadium Stampede main event.
Anything Goes Match: Mark Briscoe def. Tommaso Ciampa. The match was brutal, featuring kendo sticks, staplers, and barbed wire. Briscoe won after hitting a Froggy Bow and a piledriver through a barbed wire table.
AEW Continental Championship Eliminator: Jon Moxley (c) vs. Kyle O’Reilly — Time Limit Draw (20 minutes). O’Reilly earned a future title shot at Double or Nothing with no time limit.
8-Woman Tag Match: Triangle of Madness (Thekla, Julia Hart, Skye Blue) & Athena def. Thunder Rosa, Mina Shirakawa, and the Brawling Birds.
AEW World Championship: Darby Allin (c) def. “Speedball” Mike Bailey via submission (Scorpion Death Lock). MJF joined commentary, tried to help Bailey, and even attempted to shave Allin’s head — a tease for the Title vs. Hair match at Double or Nothing.

Gordon: “A most deliberate psychological tactic — and one that clearly rattled the champion.”

Collision Results

Katsuyori Shibata vs. Will Ospreay: Ospreay won, setting up his Owen Hart Cup run. He told Samoa Joe he has “his whole country on his back” and aims to win the Cup before challenging for the world title at All In.
Rush vs. TJ Crawford: Rush won.
5-Minute Eliminator: Divine Dominion (Lena Kross & Megan Bayne) def. Kayla Lopez & Elle Valentine — a quick, one-sided win.
AEW World Tag Team Championship: FTR (c) def. Orange Cassidy & Roderick Strong via gold watch/Stokely. The titles remain on the line for Double or Nothing.

Ed: “That was less a match and more a catharsis — and the fallout is going to be seismic!”

Notable Storylines & Hype

Willow Nightingale revealed a shoulder injury, vacated the TBS Championship, and withdrew from the Owen Hart Cup.
MJF’s interference in the Dynamite main event and his “bald” threat to Allin were major Double or Nothing foreshadowing.
Stadium Stampede main event set: 14 men from multiple factions will collide at Double or Nothing, with Jericho & The Young Bucks’ loss to El Ídolo, Davis, and Ricochet as a key setup.

This was a high-octane, three-hour special packed with title defenses, eliminator wins, and major PPV storylines, making it one of the most action-filled nights before Double or Nothing.

MJF Accuses WWE Of Using AEW TV Deal Rumors To Deflect Criticism From Their Own Product

“AEW has an insane amount of momentum. There’s a paradigm shift going on similar to the paradigm shift that was happening back in 2019. People are disenfranchised at WWE right now. They want to see a different type of product. In comes AEW. We are the alternative. We are the Pepsi to the Coke. There will always be room for Pepsi. Always.”

“Well, because it’s a way to hold the competition down, right? So, when you look at how these rumors started, where did they come from? They came from WWE, TKO, right?” Credit: ringsidenews.com

“Months ago, it was considered a formality that he’s going to WWE. And I’m not here to tell you that that’s not happening anymore. But what I am telling you is that there are many people in AEW pushing for them to look into exploring their options to basically sign him.”” Credit: ringsidenews.com

“I cannot comment, or I don’t think I should comment on wrestlers that still have a contractual obligation. As I understand it, I believe they are still obligated, and I don’t believe I’m allowed to talk to them. As such, I don’t feel it would be right to comment on them under the circumstances except to say that I think they are great wrestlers.”

Gordon: “A most volatile situation — and one that promises violence.”

🟥 AEW — NEWS

⭐ Bowens Talks About Transition to Singles Wrestling

Credit: Battleground Podcast and transcript by Wrestling Inc.

“”There was a lot of different moving parts that we didn’t foresee happening, and it altered a lot of other things, which led to where we are today…But there’s a lot of unfinished business,” Bowens said.

Later in the interview, the former AEW World Tag Team and World Trios Champion added, “I’ve been proving it…I’ve been a successful and big part of this company since its inception…I’m a part of building the foundation of this company. I’m a star. I’m the face of this company…I hope that people can see my journey and see what I’ve done and what I’ve accomplished and go, I can do that too.”

A week ago, Bowens released a video on Instagram, where he called himself a former and “gullible” performer, who did all that he could to represent the community, specifically, the fans. He went on to say in his monologue that the ultimate betrayals he faced at the hands of Max Caster, Billy Gunn, and Jay White eventually taught him that nice guys finish last, and that only bad guys prevail and get rewarded for those said efforts. Therefore, that’s why he joined The Opps. He looks forward to unleashing all this pent up frustration he’s held on to for so long, hoping to become a “hero and a champion” that AEW fans can be proud of.”

⭐ Bully Ray On Where The New Day Should Land

Credit: Busted Open Radio and Wrestling Inc.

“In the event that The New Day sign with All Elite Wrestling, Ray emphasized the importance of the company making the most of it, especially considering the large financial investment involved. How exactly would AEW do that?

According to Ray, dedicating significant television time to The New Day would certainly put AEW on the right path. A larger focus on the division’s core teams would too.

“In investing in The New Day, you have to invest in your entire tag team division and you have to make the tag team division a focal point of the company,” Ray said. “I know what’s going on with FTR and Edge and Christian … Now you have Edge and Christian, you have your legendary team. Now you have FTR, your AEW tag team. Your synonymous with AEW tag team. Now you have the New Day, your heavy hitters coming from another company. Oh, by the way, you have the Young Bucks, who helped build the place. Now that’s four tag teams right there. Those are four heavy hitter tag teams. You better be ready to invest some time on your weekly show into your tag team division.”

As it stands, FTR (Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood) reign as the AEW World Tag Team Champions, though Adam “Edge” Copeland and Christian Cage remain hot on their tails. At Double or Nothing, Copeland and Cage will challenge FTR for the tag titles in an “I Quit” match. If Copeland and Cage lose, though, they must permanently retire as a tag team. New Day faced FTR on a number of occasions during their respective stint in WWE.

Meanwhile, The Young Bucks, despite not holding AEW tag gold since 2024, remain regular fixtures in the company. Interestingly, Woods’ last TNA match prior to his 2010 WWE arrival pitted him against The Young Bucks in tag team competition. At that time, fans knew Woods as Consequences Creed and The Young Bucks as Generation Me.”

⭐ Eddie Kingston Talks About CM Punk

Credit: Ringside News

“Kingston then took it a step further, suggesting that if they were ever in the same place again, it wouldn’t stay calm for long, claiming cops would need to be involved.

“If we’re in the same company together, we’re probably going to run into each other or whatever. You’ve got to put cops in front of us. That’s it.”

And in one of the more intense moments of the interview, Kingston openly talked about how much he enjoyed seeing Punk bleed during that fight — and what he said to him in that moment.

“Whatever—I fought him, it wasn’t even a match. He did bleed, bro. I enjoyed the f*** out of that when he started bleeding. I told him—I whispered in his ear—I said, ‘Let me taste—if you let me taste if there’s any p***y in your f****** blood.’ That shows you how much I like him.”

Kingston isn’t trying to protect the image of that feud or soften how it came across. If anything, he’s reinforcing that what fans saw wasn’t just good storytelling — it was rooted in something real.

In the end, years later, nothing about Eddie Kingston’s stance has changed. The feud with CM Punk wasn’t just business to him, and based on how he’s still talking about it, it never will be.”

⭐ Tony Kahn Accused of Online Bot Attacks on Former AEW Talent

Credit: Ringside News

“The claims didn’t stop at just identifying a pattern. [Nick] LoPiccolo [of Bodyslam.net’s popcast with Famous Davis’ went further, arguing that these alleged campaigns can have real consequences for the talent involved, especially when it comes to mental health.

“For the women… it is really, really hurtful… for the men too… it causes psychological damage… but it’s on-going.”

Despite the severity of the accusation, LoPiccolo made it clear he isn’t backing down or worried about potential fallout. He addressed the possibility of legal action directly and doubled down on his stance.

“I’m not worried about being sued… if there’s discovery… there’s no way they would sue me… because I’m right.”

At the center of all this is a claim that cuts right to the core of the wrestling industry’s ongoing AEW vs. WWE tension — that talent who leave one side are being targeted in a deliberate way once they cross over.

That claim lines up with what fans have already seen play out online. Both Jade Cargill and Blake Monroe were very vocal on social media after joining WWE, and both were quickly met with waves of backlash from accounts pushing anti-WWE narratives, adding fuel to the idea that these reactions may not be entirely organic.”

🟧 AEW COLLISION: FAIRWAY TO HELL — MAY 9, 2026

📍 One‑hour special edition This show was short, sharp, and loaded with storyline movement.

Ed: “Fans, that title reign was quicker than a hiccup!”
