CM Punk and Dustin Rhodes opened the April 20 Dynamite in Pittsburgh. Fans were expecting a clinic from these two ring generals, and we got one.
Each man sold at least one body part — Rhodes a knee he tweaked falling to the floor, Punk a little of the damage Penta Oscura did to his knee from last week, a lot of the damage Dustin did to his arm this week. In the end, Punk countered a counter to pick up the win.
It was the counter to a counter that scored the victory for @CMPunk tonight on #AEWDynamite, in this tremendous match against @DustinRhodes! Tune in to @TBSNetwork right now! pic.twitter.com/HRuop8W84q

...then the Best in the World signaled for a belt. He’s working to strengthen his record and earn a show at Hangman Page, after all. And fresh off ending his blood feud with Adam Cole last Friday on Rampage, Page appeared to signal he’d be happy to give the Best in the World what he wants.
