Let&#8217;s turn this into a thing.&#8217;  And so he was sort of like, let&#8217;s see how things play out once we understand why the Punk-Moxley match was put on early, and all that.

I can also report that Punk did not seem agitated or distracted or not his usual self right before Dynamite started.  It did n&#8217;t seem like anything was on his mind or that it was a stressful day or anything like that.  He was totally going through the normal motions.
