The highest-rated segment on last week’s Dynamite was the MJF-CM Punk war of words. That continued this week after Punk took on Lee Moriarty. MJF and CM Punk feud is getting closer to in-ring action and MJF wants to make Punk’s life a living hell. We also got the introduction of Wardlow into the mix. Recall, Wardlow and CM Punk were on the initial draft of Tony Kahn’s Full Gear Card. AEW Dynamite moved along at a nice pace, Bryan Danielson and Hangman Adam Page are set to clash at Winter is Coming on December 15th. Danielson is running through Dark Order members.
