Welcome to the Busted Open Podcast. This is Dave LaGrecca.

On today's episode, myself, Mark Henry and Bully Ray talk AEW Collision, especially the punk promo and the return of his AEW World Championship.

Are we going to get the same from Thunder Rosa when she comes back? Also, we get into Adam Cole and MJF the hottest thing going in AEW and from the world of the WWE.

We ring announcer Samantha Irvin joins us right now on the Busted Open Podcast.

We heard from CM Punk AEW Collision this past Saturday and you know, we've seen Punk with the bag. What's in the bag? Well, we found out it was the AEW World WWE Championship that he never lost.

He never tapped out as he said in his promo, never got pinned, never submitted, never lost that championship. He was out because he got injured.

And then he spray paints the X. That's my mark. I'm straight at straight edge. And then he says the line that is probably the biggest heelless line that he could possibly say in the middle of the ring on Saturday.

And he says, I'm straight edge. So that makes me better than you. Now, was he talking to MJF or was he talking to the people in the audience?

And was he talking to the people at home? I don't know. But that's what Punk said. So immediately I'm thinking, well, wait a second here.

Did it? Is that is, are we going to get funder Rosa coming back holding a bag with a with an AEW Women's Championship in it? Because because funder Rosa didn't.

Thunder Rosa didn't get pinned. Thunder Rosa didn't tap out. So if Punk can do it, can funder Rosa? That is wow. Did they paint themselves into a corner on Saturday?

I thought the same thing. Go ahead, Mark. I thought entirely the same thing, Dave. When that, when as soon as he said that I never got beat, I never tapped out. And I still have, I was like, wow.

So that's the plate. Thunder Rosa should have made.

Yeah, bully, right?

I'm 1000% in agreement because when you just started to talk coming out of break about Punk and the ring with the bag, the first thing I thought of was Thunder Rosa.

And I'm like, shit, Dave's going in one direction. But the first thing I thought of was Thunder Rosa. How am I going to, you know, I wanted to bring up Thunder Rosa.

I just did 1000%. Punk had to relinquish the title. He gets 10 plus minutes in ring on live TV. Thunder Rosa has to relinquish the title. She gets a minute in the back.

We talked about it. We were all pissed off about it. It didn't make sense. It didn't seem fair.

And in wrestling, I don't like the word fair because fuck fair. Whatever is best for for your show is what business is what matters.

And don't tell me giving punk 10 minutes in the ring and Thunder Rosa one minute in the back is best for business.
