IMHO, you have to divide Punk’s AEW run in two: pre-Hangman and post-Hangman. Pre-Hangman, he was having great matches and great angles (the feud with MJF alone was worth every penny he made). Post-Hangman, he was a mess in the ring and constantly trying to piece together his shattered ego outside of it.
It’s amazing how Hangman managed to completely ruin that man with just one promo. It speaks to just how utterly fragile he really is.
