Lesson by Eddie Guerrero.
CM Punk about how he was preparing for his first show in the ring at AEW.
In an interview with Rene Puckett, Punk described how he was preparing for his performance at AEW Rampage and how he felt as a result:
“I went backstage and struggled with concentration, remembered the advice the late great Eddie Guerrero gave me. how to judge by the crowd. Eddie Guerrero taught me this a long time ago. He said, “Before the show starts, when the lights dim, come out and listen. Go over there. You have to be on the other side of the curtain and listen. When the lights dim, the crowd will explode, and judging by the noise, you might hear, "Oh, that's 80% of the kids," and if it does, you might be fooling around. If they're adults, you're going to have fucking sex and it's going to be more sports-oriented. "
" When cm punk got to the AEW Rampage,
I was absolutely thrilled. I didn't hear the shit because the moment my music started I heard the first riff and then the jet engine. It was over me. People have asked me what it is and all I can tell them is there is a train in Chicago. Stand underneath it when it passes by. It was so. It was loud. Once I heard the noise of the crowd, but this time I felt it. Not only did I hear it, I felt it. They put pressure on me. "
