We Have To Talk About AEW

4/17/2024
This week on The Wrestling Caucus, we have to talk about AEW. Last week on Dynamite, AEW decided to air the security footage for the altercation between CM Punk and Jack Perry from last summer at All In. We discuss why this was one of the most embarrassing moments in professional wrestling in recent years. AEW needs to learn from the mistakes of wrestling past and not use their valuable television time to address matters that a small section of the audience will care about and breaking the fourth wall in the process. They also analyze Kenny Omega’s recent comments on his Twitch stream and if their upcoming Dynasty pay-per-view is worth the money. This isn’t about AEW vs WWE, this is about making sure March 2001 never happens again. --- Follow The Wrestling Caucus https://www.instagram.com/thewrestlingcaucus/?hl=en https://twitter.com/wrestlingcaucus?lang=en https://www.facebook.com/TheWrestlingCaucus/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/twcpod/message
