Punk’s Post-Collision Promo Not Part of AEW’s Plan
CM Punk’s remarks about Hangman Page following the AEW Collision event were not premeditated in a surprising turn of events. In a post-show off-camera promo, Punk humorously commented on the abundance of unsold Hangman action figures in stores, suggesting that no one wanted to buy them. He also made a cheeky reference to the area being “Hangman country.”
Fightful Select and PWInsider reports confirm that these comments were not part of any planned storyline or segment. The promo was not intended to be filmed for future use and was merely an impromptu segment to engage and thank the live audience. Interestingly, PWInsider pointed out that Punk’s remarks were in response to some fans who were heckling him post-show. Despite the unplanned nature of the promo, it has garnered significant attention, with fans speculating about a potential future feud between Punk and Hangman Page.
