A week after running the biggest show in professional wrestling history, AEW must run their flagship event with a dark cloud of drama hanging over their heads. On September 2nd, 2023, CM Punk was terminated by Tony Khan and All Elite Wrestling. After two years with the promotion, Punk's long-awaited return to professional wrestling after a seven-year absence came to an abrupt end due to his several backstage altercations and cancerous behavior. On the heels of this stunning news, AEW managed to put on one of their greatest PPVs of all time with three MOTY contenders: Kenny Omega vs. Konosuke Takeshita, Bryan Danielson vs. Ricky Starks, and Jon Moxley vs. Orange Cassidy for the AEW International Championship! Cass, Chris, Melee, Simon, and Wyatt are back to discuss this monumental show for AEW in the face of such drama. The boys also discuss CM Punk's firing, his current legacy, and his potential future and attempt to answer the question: Should CM Punk have even come back? Fuck you, Phil!
