Can you give me the gist? I can’t find him and am curious. I’ve been over punk for a while. Kingston’s promo on him complaining about how he never shuts up when Willow could be having a match was amazing because it’s exactly what my husband and I would say literally the exact same thing everytime Punk’s music hit. But I’m up for hearing why I should be amazed by the skill of this work.
Long story short: a user on Reddit named ‘tvchase’ – someone with experience working in a newsroom – did an incredibly well researched series of posts breaking down why he thought the whole Punk/Bucks drama could be a work. They referenced old wrestling gimmicks, quotes, etc. to make their point and it was captivating to say the least.
It’s well worth the read. The series is LOOOONG but as a wrestling fan it was one of the most fun things I’ve ever read on the internet.
I’m like 80% sure the Punk/Bucks stuff is a work. Of course, I’ve been wrong about that kind of thing before.
I’m in the same boat. The brilliant u/tvchase pretty much convinced me it’s all a work.
