Bobby Fish, a former member of AEW, has given an explanation for why, despite the bout being over, he looked to kick out of CM Punk’s GTS finisher.

Since I’ve worked in this industry for a while, I understand what that means and have used it myself to tell someone, in our way, “Whatever, excellent match. Before the three count was over, he completed it. That is another approach to say to your adversary, “Hey, let’s fix something.
“At that same moment, I can compare it to how Tony Khan could have felt when he was ranting about the EVPs. You’re at a loss for what to do. I can speak for myself when I say that I had to make a decision at that same moment and was unable to consider both options.
