FULL Emergence 2023 Highlights
Witness highlights from an incredible night of action as IMPACT Wrestling presented Emergence 2023 from Toronto, ON.
AEW'S Jack Perry Got Punked By CM Punk
Tonight there was a backstage altercation between CM Punk and Jack Perry at the AEW All In 2023 pay-per-view event in London, England. it is believed that Perry struck first in the altercation and instigated things. Multiple sources have now confirmed that Perry was “caught in a choke.” AEW President Tony Khan stated they were investigating the altercation and there would be no comment until they have the full story of what happened.
According to several reports, the altercation took place just before CM Punk made his way to the ring for his match with Samoa Joe in the opening match on the main show. Just prior to that match, Jack Perry faced off against HOOK on the “Zero Hour” pre-show. During that match, Perry made a very clear reference to his previous backstage altercation with Punk at a recent AEW Collision TV taping. Jack Perry looked directly in the camera while doing a spot involving a car window, saying, “It’s real glass! Cry me a river!” It has been well-documented that Perry wasn’t happy with the situation that took place on AEW Collision where he wanted to use real glass for a spot. CM Punk told him that wasn’t happening and if he had a problem with it, he could go back and work Wednesdays.
One story making the rounds at the AEW All In 2023 pay-per-view event is that Perry approached Punk backstage just before his match and “stepped in his face,” where he then reportedly “bumped” Punk. Following the bump, CM Punk pushed Perry. This led to Perry charging back at Punk and it was said that he “got choked.” As of this writing, there is no word on what kind of choke it was or who broke up the fight. Multiple sources confirm that things did get physical between the two men. The incident happened near the gorilla position. Tony Khan stated they were 'investigating' the altercation and there would be no comment until the full story (or the version Khan wants put out) is released. Many people are stating There was shoving back and forth and from there, the story that is told is that Punk either punched and/or choked out Perry after the shoving
Jack Perry was told to leave the AEW All In 2023 pay-per-view event following his backstage altercation with CM Punk.
Nothing like getting punked out, then get escorted out of the building, LMAO!

Are They Really THIS DUMB Over At Coastal Championship Wrestling?
Apparently the answer to that is, Yes they really are this dumb.
Two people including someone who works for Coastal Championship Wrestling, messaged me this, and you really can't, make this shit up. Whoever is uploading CCW's videos to YouTube obviously doesn't know hopw to properly date the videos. dating them "11.12.23". HHMM, how is it this is supposed to be from NOVEMBER of this year when it's not even SEPTEMBER yet?
Does the word "dumb ass" seem fitting here?
I went and checked this out, thinking this was just a one time mistake. Let's see just how many times the dumb ass who uploads these videos makes this same mistake, shall we?
Here's the most recent one, posted nine hours ago.
But wait, there's more. Of course there's more (smiles).
Think that's it? Oh no, we have a couple more. If you're gonna be a dumb ass, don't be a half ass dumb ass, go all the way and be a complete dumb ass.
The definition of insanity is doing the same stupid thing over and over again thinking it's a great idea. Here's a great example of some dipshit doing just that. I hope Coastal Championship Wrestling wasn't paying this moron to make this same mistake over and over and over again. Nothing like getting paid to fuck something up, over and over again, LOL.
You can throw all the hateful comments and replies you want, but the fact is, Coastal Championship Wrestling ALLOWED this kind of fuck up to keep happening, had they caught it the first time, we wouldn't be here with people laughing at how stupid this looks, "GGRREEAATT" representation and professionalism on behalf of Coastal Championship Wrestling.
Keep up the 'good work' (sarcastic thumbs up).

Terry Funk passes away at 79 years old
One of the most beloved professional wrestlers of all time has died.
Terry Funk passed away today at 79 years old, following a hard battle against Parkinson's Disease and dementia:
"Terry Funk is gone. I just talked to Terry’s daughter, Brandee, who gave me the awful news," Mick Foley wrote. "He was my mentor, my idol, one of (my) closest friends. He was the greatest wrestler I ever saw."
"If you get the chance, look up a Terry Funk match or a Terry Funk promo, and give thanks that this incredible man gave so much, for so long, to so many. There will never be another like him. May God bless Terry, his friends, family and all who loved him. RIP my dear friend - it was an honor to know you," he continued.
Considered one of the greatest workers and on interviews in wrestling history, Funk was inducted into the inaugural Wrestling Observer Newsletter Hall of Fame in 1996. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2009.
Funk has been honored by numerous other wrestling organizations as well including The Stampede Wrestling Hall of Fame (1995), WCW Hall of Fame (1995), NWA Hall of Fame (2009), and the St. Louis Wrestling Hall of Fame (2010). Funk also was given the Iron Mike Mazurki Award by the Cauliflower Alley Club in 2005 and The Hardcore Hall of Fame that same year. He was inducted into the International Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame in 2021
He also received The Tokyo Sports Lifetime Achievement Award in 1983.
Funk was born on June 30, 1944, in Hammond, Indiana. He is the son of Dorothy (Culver) and Dory Funk, a professional wrestler and promoter.[7] Following the end of World War II, the family relocated to Amarillo, Texas, where Terry and his brother, known professionally as Dory Jr., grew up in the professional wrestling business. After graduating from high school, Funk attended West Texas State University (now West Texas A&M University), where he competed in amateur wrestling and football.[
Later in Funk's career, his style changed from wrestling traditional southern style wrestling matches to the more violent style of hardcore wrestling. In 1993, after a special appearance against Blanchard at World Championship Wrestling's Slamboree, Funk promised to help the fledgling Eastern Championship Wrestling (later renamed Extreme Championship Wrestling or ECW) by lending his talent and notoriety to the promotion. On July 16, Terry and Dory Funk lost a barbed wire match against The Public Enemy. Funk maintained a regular schedule of wrestling for ECW in its early days while also competing in Japan. He had many feuds and wrestled programs with wrestlers such as Cactus Jack, "The Franchise" Shane Douglas, The Sandman, Sabu, and Terry's own protege, Tommy Dreamer.
Funk further elevated ECW by headlining their first pay-per-view, Barely Legal on April 13, 1997, winning the ECW World Heavyweight Championship from Raven. Earlier in the night, he defeated The Sandman and Stevie Richards in a Triple Threat match, thus earning him the match with Raven. Funk went on to successfully defend the title in bouts at Chapter 2, The Buffalo Invasion, Wrestlepalooza, and Heat Wave. He was ultimately defeated for the title by Sabu in a barbed wire match at Born to be Wired in August 1997, in which the ropes of the ring were taken down and replaced with barbed wire. Both men had to be cut out of the wires at the end of the match. Sabu had his biceps visibly torn open by the barbed wire – as a result, the wound was taped up and the match continued.
In September 1997, a show was held in Funk's hometown of Amarillo. It was called "Terry Funk's WrestleFest" and was both his own show and a celebration of the careers of Terry, his father, and his brother. Terry lost to then-WWF Champion Bret Hart in the main event, a non-title match. However, before the match, ECW owner Paul Heyman presented Terry with a belt, paid for through a collection taken up by wrestlers on the ECW roster, that declared him the Lifetime ECW World Heavyweight Champion.
Funk wrestled for WCW in 2000 and 2001, winning the WCW Hardcore Championship three times (which stands as the company's record) and the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship for the second time. He was also the WCW Commissioner introduced on the January 3, 2000, episode of Monday Nitro and one time and the leader of the short-lived Old Age Outlaws (Funk, Arn Anderson, Larry Zbyszko and Paul Orndorff)[14] that feuded with the nWo.
From 2002 to 2004, Funk was a regular top star for Ring of Honor Wrestling and Major League Wrestling. Funk had several battles with the likes of CM Punk, the Extreme Horsemen (Steve Corino, C. W. Anderson, Justin Credible and Simon Diamond) in specialty matches such as a No Ropes Barbed Wire Death Match, and a 5 on 5 WarGames match. On MLW's final show until 2017, Funk was attacked by his former manager Gary Hart and his syndicate. In November 2004, Funk competed in the UK wrestling company FWA's annual show entitled British Uprising. He teamed with Paul Burchill and Paul Travell, managed by "The Twisted Genius" Dean Ayass, to face The Triad, managed by Greg Lambert, in a 6-Man Tag Team match. Funk's team emerged victorious in front of a crowd of 2,000 people in the Coventry Skydome.
In 2005, Funk received an offer from World Wrestling Entertainment to appear at the ECW reunion show One Night Stand, but turned it down in favor of working the ECW nostalgia show Hardcore Homecoming that was being put together by Shane Douglas. At Hardcore Homecoming, Funk lost a three-way barbed wire match to Sabu.
In 1989, Terry Funk appeared as a bouncer in the movie Road House with Patrick Swayze. In 1999, Funk was featured in director Barry Blaustein's wrestling documentary Beyond the Mat. His legendary toughness was attested to when cameramen followed him to a medical appointment, where he was told, by the doctor, that he should not even be able to walk without intense pain. He has also appeared in other movies such as Paradise Alley, The Ringer, and Over the Top.[28] He released an autobiography, Terry Funk: More Than Just Hardcore, in 2005. On May 11, 2010, Funk appeared on "Right After Wrestling" with Arda Ocal on SIRIUS Satellite Radio to discuss his possible retirement, to which he replied "I never really truly will retire". This was also the interview with the infamous quote, "I dislike Vince (McMahon). I'm jealous of Vince."
In 1985, Funk appeared in the short-lived western "Wildside". Only six episodes were aired. Behind the scenes, Funk choreographed the street fight between Rocky Balboa and his nemesis Tommy Gunn at the end of Rocky V. Funk's name can be seen in the end credits. Funk also had a short lived career in music. The release of the album "Great Texan" in 1984 which was a soft rock AOR oriented album. The album was met with mixed reviews and is generally considered a "cult classic" by fans. Funk has also appeared in several WWE video games, in WWE SmackDown vs Raw 2008 and WWE SmackDown vs Raw 2011 as himself and in WWE '13 as downloadable content as his Chainsaw Charlie gimmick.
In July 2022, Terry Funk released his self-titled biographical comic book through Squared Circle Comics.
