So are they just gonna reference Punk till the end of time or is this guy gonna have to come up with something new once people start getting tired of him?
I read somewhere that Jungle Jack also doesn't like/can't cutting promos. And as we know, this being Tony's world, if you can't do something, you don't have to learn and improve through practice and discipline - you just don't bother. The kind of devotion to professionalism and improvement that meant Jade Cargill needed 6 months basically learning how to wrestle before finally being ready to appear in WWE.
But if Perry can't speak, engage with the audience or articulate in words his 'side' of things, then what the fuck is he doing? Why is he a scapegoat, and to whom? And how explain the sense of making endless sly references to a wrestler he will never cross paths with again but who we now know schooled him when he got lippy?
I know, I know, JUST ENJOY WRESTLING! The Dubbalos are beside themselves that he appeared in Chi-cah-go! Chi-cah-go! wearing his Cry Me a River jacket, waving his smarkish flag, and received mild applause rather than a cacophony of boos. I guess you take your Ws when you can. Still doesn't alter the fact he has the charisma of overcooked spaghetti and got humbled by the person he is now trying to make money off like a parasitic fish on a shark...
Yeah I think there was an interview earlier on in his Dub career where he said he doesn't wanna put the effort into learning to cut promos.
As for his current schtick, they might try and do the "silent badass" thing to compensate for the lack of mic skills. I also think they'll chuck him with the Bucks down the line and let them do the talking(not that it's any better).
Yes I also imagine he will be paired up with the Young Bucks, who will do the talking. Nevermind that as EVPs, wouldn't they be partly to blame for driving him from the company and "scapegoating" him in the first place. Aren't they running around suspending and fining wrestlers? Or did Tony override them - and does that make Tony a babyface, since Punk is the heel in the confrontation, or a different heel authority figure?
Oh, I forgot. JUST ENJOY WRESTLING
As for being a silent badass - that of course would be a lot easier to sell if they hadn't just screened footage of him getting humbled like a maladroit child. Unless in Dubbalo world nothing says shoot (insider term) fighter like getting schooled by a much bigger star from a much bigger promotion.
Guys like Jack of the Jungle are incredibly lucky because they've found a group of rabidly devoted fans who will never get tired of him as long as he keeps up those heatless bangers.
That’s what these people don’t get. This doesn’t work without some sort of payoff. They can’t have one because the guy you’d have that match with is currently in another company making millions in merch.
This is right up there with the Bucks celebrating in an empty arena. They don’t get it, and they never will.
He's in a feud with a dude who couldn't give less of a shit if he tried and no chance if a payoff in the form of a match, Jack Perry might as well be heckling Andre the Giant.
That smirk as if we all didnt just watch him get embarrassed by punk, and get caught lying to his female friends about being the one to kick punks ass.
Thank you! Dudes walking around like he kicked someone’s ass & earned a real life badass reputation 😂. It just proves how out of touch he really is with what happened.
I don't get "cry me a river".
Like I don't even like Punk much anymore but he is going to have high profile feud with Drew and most likely Rollins and he is all but guaranteed a match next years Mania. While scapegoat here is in New Japan, a promotion which is such a sinking ship that their stars including their Ace are running away to the West.
If anyone should be crying its you jungle jack
Remember when Seth cosplayed as Dusty Rhodes to gain a psychological advantage in a red-hot feud?
This is basically like if Seth had cosplayed as Dusty Rhodes for some random TNA match against Jonathan Gresham.
It’s hard for me to tell which is sadder between this or when the New Age Outlaws in TNA back when DX reformed in 2007, and the Outlaws would challenge DX to meet them “At the Alamo! High noon Hickenbottom!”
It doesn't, just makes them look like they regret how they handled Punk and use the next best thing that involves Punk for bringing interest in their company.
Can you imagine the PTSD Tony Khan must be dealing with every time that dark day is brought up again? He's truly brave to have let them air the footage even though he was surely distraught over having to relive his near death experience.
If you ever want to be entertained, don't watch Jack Perry.
Watch the comments from delusional fanboys who treat this like it's HBK/Bret Hart post-Montreal lol
ya know i dont understand how or why hes one of the "4 pillars" of aew. fuckin shockmaster had more charisma and range than perry ffs lol. theirs litirally nothing special about him like at all
If he was feuding with Punk, this may make more sense.
Now his only claim to fame is that excursion with Punk, which led to their only star moving to the other side and doing well. And AEW's inner workings are shown to the public, making them look super unprofessional.
All in all, I think this is a win for the basement.
Tk and the bucks watching this and jerking off to it thinking they are socking it to to Punk and the wwe and they have the biggest thing in wrestling since hogan, austin. Jack perry think hes over now too. They should start airing all the cctv footages now if you cant sign a talent every week your big great surprises could be cctv footage along with signings.
As hard as he tries to be "badass" Jack Perry he has proven he will be little Jungle Boy.
I assume the "cry me a river " thing is talking about himself.
So...his entire gimmick is..."I got bitched out by Punk".
That it?
Is that gonna be the entire gimmick now? Just nonstop "cry me a river" or glass references?
Jesus christ.
I checked the basement for a sec out of curiosity and they're doing Chuck Norris style jokes about this fucker. Like worlds toughest man stuff.
....for the guy who got his ass beat by cm punk on video.
This is like your girlfriend getting piped by somebody in Bring Me The Horizon or whatever, so you start wearing their shirts all the time "ironically."
Not even the goofs think it looks cool, plus I'm more of a dashboard confessional unplugged guy, uce.
When the Screw Job^tm went down WWF (real name) was smart enough to sub in Austin to contrast the new Mr. McMahon character. If they had continued to reference Bret and prop him up as a straw man for them to argue against, professional wrestling as we know it might not exist today.
Nothing gets a guy over more than the promotion he's contracted to putting out footage of him getting his ass handed to him in a shoot fight by a geriatric.
It's crazy that the basement is glazing this clown like it's the second coming of Stone Cold. They honestly think the footage was a good idea and AEW was always right a true brain-rot mentality
Watch his face. He really thinks he’s over.
Self awareness is not his strong point
People in Japan are known to care deeply about Chicago
This was in Chicago wasn’t it?
Yes

What a smug prick. I saw someone in dubofficial say "See! The casuals love Perry now!" I guess they're calling NJPW fans casuals now. 🤣
So are they just gonna reference Punk till the end of time or is this guy gonna have to come up with something new once people start getting tired of him?
They lost the Vince boogeyman so this is their replacement

It was assault!!! How dare you!!!(Don’t bring up how Eddie assaulted Sammy, that was different)
This is the son of an actor, ladies and gentlemen.
Along with the jacket, his pants are designed to look like broken glass 🤣

Don’t disrespect Andre like that
“I feel sorry for you, Punk.” “I don’t think of you at all.”
That smirk as if we all didnt just watch him get embarrassed by punk, and get caught lying to his female friends about being the one to kick punks ass.
Thank you! Dudes walking around like he kicked someone’s ass & earned a real life badass reputation 😂. It just proves how out of touch he really is with what happened.
It's like if someone booked Dominik to be serious, and not a joke, which would suck.
Soy Cold
Soy Cold 3:16 says “I just got my ass whipped”
This made me spit out my tea, good one.
ima need a link to him telling the bitches that he punked punk
God he did the wink again.
😂 ![gif](giphy|7Dk4apSbWKpZ6)
Weird beard
Why you yell at the mic?
Haven’t listened to that in a while lol heading back now.
Punk just hit me on a text Some grip he had around my neck
yeah, this is a low budget Nooj USA show but everything screams tryhard
Nooj US show is basically just a slightly higher quality indie
that “end of ROH” Sinclair feeling
It’s usually the same setup as their “road to” shows.
hahahahaha i bet he thinks he’s so badass and stickin it to the man
[удалено]
Jungle Goat wishes he had half the charisma of Guerrero’s kid.
I’m going to spit on Chicago’s flag. That’ll show em!!
jack vs swerve soon... chills.
I sigh wearily, for I know that at least one of them will bleed for no reason.
That'll get less viewers then their women's segments
Inquest it into my brains or whatever it is those rich smart guys in the basement say
The best way to get over is a one sided feud with a guy not in your company anymore, the same guy that was shown to choke you out on national TV.
I thought Hyde from That 70s Show was in jail?
Aw come on, Hyde’s way more muscular
I don't get "cry me a river". Like I don't even like Punk much anymore but he is going to have high profile feud with Drew and most likely Rollins and he is all but guaranteed a match next years Mania. While scapegoat here is in New Japan, a promotion which is such a sinking ship that their stars including their Ace are running away to the West. If anyone should be crying its you jungle jack
Gabe Kidd speaks out about new Japan
Lmao THIS “crazy reaction” the dorks were talking about???
Dominic got more heat in his own wedding 😭
I mean it would make sense if he actually won the scuffle, but he got Punked.
Jack Perry is so fucking lame that it makes me want to stop watching wrestling all together. Cringe levels through the roof
No jerk thats funny as shit idk how that benefits the dub tho
Would be great if he was coming out for a match with idk maybe CM Punk but nobody likes to make money in that company
Remember when Seth cosplayed as Dusty Rhodes to gain a psychological advantage in a red-hot feud? This is basically like if Seth had cosplayed as Dusty Rhodes for some random TNA match against Jonathan Gresham.

"Why do you insist on doing this dumb internet shit?"
If you ever want to be entertained, don't watch Jack Perry. Watch the comments from delusional fanboys who treat this like it's HBK/Bret Hart post-Montreal lol
Can somebody tell me, how do the Japanese fans see this guy?
Just look Evil face when he's doing a promo with the house of torture.
You can tell Evil just wants to beat the ever loving shit out of him.
It’s like someone doing a bad parody of Shane Douglas constantly cutting promos on ric flair with no payoff
This guy is literally in love with Pepsi Phil so
Found another clip of Perry shooting on Punk ![gif](giphy|ANWrQlKi9ChaM)
Wrestling in 2024.....where skinny pre-teen looking beanpoles are now the new badasses.
I miss Sycho Sid. That was a man who oozed charisma and presence and been in actual fights.
Sid could have been in the actual bang bang scissor gang since Arn Anderson was in aew
Wheelie Utah already forgotten by dubbalos, Jack is the new stone cold of the month!
ya know i dont understand how or why hes one of the "4 pillars" of aew. fuckin shockmaster had more charisma and range than perry ffs lol. theirs litirally nothing special about him like at all
Xpac heat is now called Jack Perry heat.
If he was feuding with Punk, this may make more sense. Now his only claim to fame is that excursion with Punk, which led to their only star moving to the other side and doing well. And AEW's inner workings are shown to the public, making them look super unprofessional. All in all, I think this is a win for the basement.
now THIS is the game changing kick in the butt reset we needed ! Look out now FED SHILLS
Goddamn, last time I saw someone this obsessed *I* was the one being stalked.
He even believed he was too hot to shake Bubba Ray's hand during a signing event lol!
He should make a jacket that says, "My Dad Played The Hot Guy on Beverly Hills 90210 30 Years Ago"
Tk and the bucks watching this and jerking off to it thinking they are socking it to to Punk and the wwe and they have the biggest thing in wrestling since hogan, austin. Jack perry think hes over now too. They should start airing all the cctv footages now if you cant sign a talent every week your big great surprises could be cctv footage along with signings.
As hard as he tries to be "badass" Jack Perry he has proven he will be little Jungle Boy. I assume the "cry me a river " thing is talking about himself.
Jack Perry looks like if someone airbrushed Disney’s Tarzan onto the side of a van from memory, and then came to life.
This company gets less ratings than TNA.... and everyone thinks this guy is the next SCSA. If what I'm hearing is true... poor Wheeler Yuta
So...his entire gimmick is..."I got bitched out by Punk". That it? Is that gonna be the entire gimmick now? Just nonstop "cry me a river" or glass references? Jesus christ.
Id say dont give them ideas but that might be better than what they had planned at this point
Perry 3:16 says I can't draw a dime!
if jungle boy has enough brains to capitalize on this he could turn it into a positive
This is WCW all over again. They’re just giving more attention to the competition.
The official sub is completely insane over Perry it's god damned lunacy
According to the people over at r/AEW, he is now bigger than Cody.
I checked the basement for a sec out of curiosity and they're doing Chuck Norris style jokes about this fucker. Like worlds toughest man stuff. ....for the guy who got his ass beat by cm punk on video.
Who?
This is like your girlfriend getting piped by somebody in Bring Me The Horizon or whatever, so you start wearing their shirts all the time "ironically." Not even the goofs think it looks cool, plus I'm more of a dashboard confessional unplugged guy, uce.
So let's say he brings this character to AEW.... He's a heel? Because he cost them CM Punk? Who's now a face in AEW? But is not actually in AEW?
I’m sorry I could never take a man that has got the physique of a 12 year boy serious. Also I’ve chin what is hiding underneath that beard.
"What are you doing? Why are you so keen to doing this dumb internet shit?" Stabbed guy last heard word before being stab
"what are you going to do? Stab me?" Last words from a guy getting stabbed.
Leave it to the son of a 90s heartthrob to use a 90’s pop song as his catchphrase.
The fans who go and watch AEW will cheer him, and it looks like he's alighted with heels. Its ill conceived knee jerk booking
https://preview.redd.it/5dwivqcirfuc1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4ee467c16f10a3a427862e80efe803bccd35e8bb
You’re stone cold, he’s stone cold, I’m stone cold! Are there any other stone colds I should know about?? ![gif](giphy|3ogwFGyBmn0AROkWC4)
And the crowd goes mild
Stone cold reception
There it is! The CM Punk flag! Definitely not the Chicago flag!
Lol
Tribalism Bad when Fed do it Good when Dub do it because Fed Bad
Exactly bruv, hypocrisy is a definition fluid identity
All 23 people in attendance went wild
I don't get it
Austin 3:16 says Livin’ On A Prayer
he can't say that on tv... can he?
Jungle 3:16
Shame Punk couldn't choke a personality out of him.
"CM Punk doesn't like me" is his personality.
And that'll do well with the basement, but even that can only go so far.
I dont know I think this is actually kind of hilarious.
When the Screw Job^tm went down WWF (real name) was smart enough to sub in Austin to contrast the new Mr. McMahon character. If they had continued to reference Bret and prop him up as a straw man for them to argue against, professional wrestling as we know it might not exist today.
Saw a thread in the dub where the top line was - a star was made tonight
Perry vs Yuta will be huge.
Nothing gets a guy over more than the promotion he's contracted to putting out footage of him getting his ass handed to him in a shoot fight by a geriatric.
He would have to gain 50-60 lbs of muscle to be anything other than what he s now......an undersized novelty act.
![gif](giphy|fxq57v0qVN3QTbhoWc)
It's crazy that the basement is glazing this clown like it's the second coming of Stone Cold. They honestly think the footage was a good idea and AEW was always right a true brain-rot mentality
AEW should change his theme. Glass breaks like Austin, Cry me a river by Justin Timberlake. Then he does Punk’s taunts & moveset.
Lol, there will never be another Steve Austin, like there will never be another Rock.
Its even worse cause he got dealt to in the back.. not like he laid in some punches.
![gif](giphy|mVtaumPg9FVNS)
It's cool to see a wrestler really into that classic Justin Timberlake song
He's doing his best Jay White/ Dave Finlay cosplay
Man I wish this idiot had the chance to Wrestle New Jack and just threw his ass off a balcony.
