Hello there my very good friends on today's wrestling news. The CM Punk situation has been blown wide open.

AMJF shares a huge AW injury update. Got a major update on WW's plans for SmackDown.

And Mercedes Monet finally explains her recent AEW absence. I'm Adam Wilborn. I'm Andy H Murray. The H stands for 100 demons, 100 demons to be specific. And it also stands for Happy World Cup Day. There you go. Mexico and South Africa. Is that the first game? Very nice. First of quite a few. Apologies in advance for how we're going to look in the next month. Yeah, I'm not staying up to 5 a.m.

Bro. It's not me. It's not me. And this is the news. There you go. Stole your line there. What are you going to do about it? Nothing. Call the cops. Right? Let's kick this one off by giving you the latest. We said we do it today. So we're doing it today. The latest on this CM Punk situation, right. The rumors from yesterday, if you're not up to speed, I'll keep it pretty brief. But coming from a Twitter account primarily, which, and to be fair, the Twitter account did say that this is, you know, rumory or whatever. But there was a rumor that he, CM Punk politicked for something at WrestleMania. He didn't get it. He had backstage heat.

There was another rumor that he'd

asked for his release after being told to take a pay cut. There was another one that he was upset at AJ Lee's booking, blah, blah, blah, blah. Flightful Select have come through with a big update on this and the opening line is we've been not unable to verify literally

we've been here literally any of these

literally any of these we've been unable to

verify and their opening line is we've been unable to verify literally we've been here, literally any of these, literally any of these, we've been unable to verify literally any of these claims, but we did ask about all of them. So we'll just go through this big report here from Fightville, good work as always. They spoke to dozens of people, apparently. None of them heard that he wanted out of his contract, punk, that is.

And none of them believe he was asked to take a pay cut. To be fair, we said in the news, no chance he was asked to take a pay cut, not a hope in hell. Now, one source said that punk has a story coming up. He's getting some new merch. He hasn't been off TV due to disciplinary reasons or anything like that. And there our days planned for this upcoming summer of punk, if you will.

Right.

AJ Lee. I'm sure. It's better than the last one. Yeah, I sure hope so. That one didn't start until about November. No, I know, it was like the Christmas of Punk at that stage. The Summer of Punk, you lose to Triple H, congratulations. Yeah, if you want to have summer and Christmas, I'm almost for the eye. Christmas and summer would rock.

Let's go to Australia then.

Let's do it. I didn't text this last year. It was pretty warm. A.J. Lee, she's not imminently in WW's plans, apparently, but that might change. The rumor that he was mad about something to do with AJ or her booking or whatever, That was scoffed at internally, apparently.

So someone heard that and went,

What's up? with AJ or her booking or whatever. That was scoffed at internally, apparently.

So someone heard that and went,

what's up?

But yeah, so apparently she was never planned to be full time or anything like that.

And everything that happened with her run was planned internally from the time she came back.

Yeah.

Right.
