If Punk doesn't get fired with in a few weeks I think it's a safe bet it comes out. He's currently going to be out for 6 to 8 months with an arm injury so they might delay making a decision too. Not to mention they got Punk front and center on the video game cover too.

Malakai Black is too far along in production The Elite are not getting fired Thunder Rosa asking for her release is a false rumor Punk could be fired but even still they could potentially finish up all his previously announced merch, it would depend on the agreement between him and the company TLDR the only one with the possibility of being affected is Punk This. The only one of these in danger of not seeing the light of day is Punk, and truthfully even that isn't set in stone IMO.

I heard they are re-doing the line and now instead of extra hands, and body parts the figures will have action features. CM Punk will have a similar action feature like the WCW Piper did. Pull the string and his fist start flying. Also Ace Steel will have a biting action feature and chair throwing action.

You all are getting worked so hard, it's hilarious you gotta be on a high does of copium to think this is a storyline, especially when Tony Khan allowed his babyface Champion to walk all over him and his EVPs while he sat there nodding like a bitch. If this were all a work then it would be the worst work ever worked, brother.

Tony Khan knew Punk was going to be out a long time with his newly sustained injury during the match. Being the genius wrestling mind that he is he quickly gathered Omega, Bucks, and Hangman to run this idea by them. They were in, so once Punk came to the back he was all about it as Tony was pitching it to him. Ripping into Cabana was just a convenient way to get into ripping The Elite. The one thing they didn’t account for was word of Punk legitimately being hurt getting out, but the angle is largely considered a success. What will they come up with next?

It’s definitely a work
That’s why they vacated all of the titles and treated Punk and The Elite like they were Chris Benoit and didn’t say their names nor show them on TV
That’s why they suspended everyone involved even people that weren’t in the fight, ya know, for the angle
That’s why they made a new intro without The Elite or Punk in it
That’s why they’re all indefinitely suspended and have their real legal team investigating it. Cuz they’re gonna work the Illinois and Florida legal systems for a fake wrestling story
The copium is off the charts

Cuz they’re gonna work the Illinois and Florida legal systems for a fake wrestling story The copium is off the charts To play devil's advocate ... because, why not, it's fun and it's Friday and this board likes traffic:
- There are no such thing as titles in wrestling. Wrestling is fake. They titles are fake. They weren't stripped of anything. The titles aren't theirs. They are props.
- Did AEW release a press release about the suspensions? Or did we just get word, from a word, from a word? And where did those words come from anyway? Twitter? Is it suspension without pay? Or like, "you're 'suspended', here have a week or two off." Again, wrestling is not real. This isn't the NFL or the NBA. They weren't suspended from anything that is real.
New intro without someone! Oh no! It holds all the truths! If you're not on it ... it's official: You're dead to us alllllllllll! "Quick, get Ric Flair and Hogan off it, now put them on it, now take them off it, now put them back on it." Hmm ... maybe you're onto something here.
Legal teams for ... what exactly? A punch thrown? A "chair that was thrown"? What kind of man decides to get a lawyer involved over that? What kind of legal team decideds to investigate a scrap that happens in every single pro sports league every single year? Won't someone think of the "kicked in door"!?!? If Conor McGregor goes to court over a shattered bus window that cut someone up, then by god Kenny Omega is suing for some bite marks, man!
Ok, fun over.
I don't care if it happened or not. It's over. They'll all "be back" eventually. I'm just saying people are acting like this is one of the biggest things to ever happen, and it's not even close to even being ... well ... anything at all.

If it’s a work, it didn’t do much to bring in more viewers. Way to go!

100% not a work
The only figure I’m unsure about is the Supreme Punk, but I selfishly hope it releases regardless. The head scans look so much better. I’d be content if all we got was the Supreme and Luminaries Punk if he’s truly out the door.

Seems like Punk should be ok no matter what happens with him since they seem to be playing a wait and see game with him now before they decide what to do.

Why would he be out the door? Serious question. I want to hear your answers. I'm truly curious. Look, if HE decides to quit, ok.
But the scrum wasn't nationally televised. It was on YouTube, no? It got heat on socia media only, not nationally (nor would it). His bashed a fellow coworker, he bashed people with a fake EVP title, and he bashed this and that about AEW. So ... fine him and move on. Discovery/WB isn't going to freak out over it. They probably hope it gets more eyes on the product because all they care about is ratings. Again, teammates fight. It happens. Sit everyone down and make amends. You don't fire a top draw over THAT. Had he stabbed someone? Broken some bones? Gone on a racist rant? Yeah ... you gotta cut ties. But he didn't even do a grain of sand's worth of damage to anything.

“Because the locker room wants him gone” is more than enough reason at this point
They didn’t issue anything because they’re still investigating it you don’t release info before you’re done

Selfishly, I want the Supreme and Luminaries ones and then if he's gone, I'm honestly not going to worry too much about it. But an ROH Punk is one of my all-time wants! Really hoping he's in a different color than white, so I can buy two of each and make a few different looks.

Or are we again just going off a tweet?
And what are they investiagting exactly? A scrap. Happens all the time.

I have no idea if they do, but if they did it would justify firing him at this point
