THE WRESTLING THREAD: HELL HAS FROZE OVER JOHN CENA HAS GONE FULL HEEL

I need to see this visually in the ring together. Jade has to make the jump to WWE. My dream women's stable Sasha, Bianca, Naomi, Jade, Lash Legend(needs a name change) She should just go by Legend short for Legend in the making. They would feud with Charlotte, Lacey, Mandy,Tiffany Stratus and Carmella
I haven't watch BTE in months but I'll be watching today. Hopefully Cutler got some good footage on the supposed fight.
I don't see them putting any of that on BTE, especially if Nick got knocked in the head with a chair.
I agree. With this Colt Cabana shit, Punk has shown that he can dish it but can't take it.
Punk is the reason people are so in love with these work-shoot promos and airing out grievences on the air. But now that he has something people can shoot on him about and the gun's pointed at him, now it's unprofessional and shouldn't be done. Now Kingston and MJF are pricks because they do the same thing.
Everybody saw that TK took Colt off of TV and was going to fire him just to appease Punk. It wasn't a coincedence he just disappeared after Punk came in. Punk may or may not have asked for it, but he damn sure didn't stop him, the Bucks did. If he was so concerned about how that would make him look, instead of being indifferent about it, he should've told TK not to do it, just keep us seperated.
Because he didn't, now he has ammo against him and it bothers the shit out of him.
Hangman simply alluded to it, I'd say it even went over most people's heads.
In that promo, Hangman said that if he were to cut a pipebomb against Punk, he implied that TK would likely show favoritism towards Punk and fire him (like Colt Cabana). But that's not the reason he won't do a pipebomb, he won't do a pipebomb because that's what Punk would do - and he's right. If anybody else had that type of ammo on them, Punk would've used it and probably nothing would've happened to Punk.
And sure enough, Punk got in his feelings, got triggered not by a question, but because he knew of the reporter having some ancient history with Colt Cabana and went off at a scrum, and now he looks like the biggest prick that he always was.
If he's still that butthurt about Colt Cabana, he shouldn't have came back.
Now Tony has to choose between his business partners or his biggest money maker, and he needs to choose the Elite.
These promos hit different now
Controversy sells!
Depends on what you consider successful and long term. There are plenty of promotions making profit and have been running for years.
My motto for life
I knew a pro wrestling fan will post it
Jim Ross put it best you can't let the inmates run the Asylum when it comes to wrestling cause you are asking for failure. They have people that can step into that roll but, you also have to have a boss that has to put friendship on the back burn when it comes to business. TK needs to build a real team of executives soon because HHH is playing a different game then Vince and people are ready to go back to WWE, say what you will about him but, Cody should have been a big wake up call for TK.
100% BIG FACTS
Ask the folks in charge of WCW if controversy created cash towards the end of its run prior to WWE buying them out.My motto for life
The right controversy creates cash. AEW is making the news for the wrong reasons.
No one running a wrestling company wants the issues AEW seems to be having right now….

So basically Punk has to apologize to the entire locker room or he's gone. He can't remain with the company until he makes things right.
Punk, and The Elite won't be on this Wednesday's Dynamite so TK has called an audible and will Moxley and Jericho on the show to fill the viod.

TK is really in a tight spot. If he lets the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega leave, Triple H will scoop them right up which might not be a death blow to AEW but it won't help, especially since WWE is trending upwards....
There is pretty much ZERO possibility of Punk going back to WWE if he is released.....
Decisions TK.

According to the new report it's on Punk to make it right with everybody in the locker room or he's gone. TK is siding with The Elite as he should as they're the ones who help build AEW in the first place.
Yeah, the ball is in his court but I would be highly surprised if Punk apologizes to the locker room. It just doesn't seem like his style.
Schiavone was with WCW when Hogan, Hall and Nash buried the locker room so he knows what chaos looks like. Schiavone the right hand man.
Name them, please. In this country. And don't say TNA/Impact. LOL
LMAO, Schiavone is the ultimate "yes man" and will just tell TK whatever he wants to hear.
The only experience Schiavone has is seeing another promotion go down in flames.
Easy. He's not being let go because he draws money and TK is paying him a lot of money.
So let me get this straight. You expected Punk to step in and prevent Colt (a guy he dislikes) from getting fired?
Colt was going to be let go because he doesn't draw any money, not because Punk wanted him gone.
TK probably thought he was doing Punk a favor by letting him go.
The only people butt hurt about Punk not being fired are the ones who have never drawn money in the wrestling business.
Dead...
That's why I asked what do you consider successful, because they still pull a profit and have been around for 20 years. MLW has been around for 20 years and is still profitable. Technically the NWA is till operating too. Obviously none of these are on the same level of WWE.
Surely you don't mean The Elite? The people the company is named after because they helped create the company that is currently paying him and provided him an opportunity to go to a mainstream nationally-televised pro wrestling company and actually wrestle? Because those are the people he is currently fighting.
Yes, you let Punk go. He got the whole locker room on 10 right now.
Punk has maybe a year left in the tank before either his body breaks down or he says fuck it and leaves. The Elite have way more road ahead of them than Punk. CM Punk is not worth potentially losing two heavyweight champions and one of the best tag teams in the world. They already lost Cody and was about to lose MJF all because they both wanted Punk's salary.
Fuck the money. You have to choose loyalty in this situation. Tony is a goddamn billionaire. They should've made that money back by now anyway.
Not to mention how important it is to stick by your day ones, so you don't alienate all your other originals. If TK chooses Punk over the Elite, how's that going to make people like MJF, Wardlow, Darby, Ricky and 'em feel? Soon as Punk has a problem with them, they gotta skip town, too?
Punk knew the MF worked there. He shouldn't have went to AEW if he knew he wasn't ready to peace it up with him. Just because he acts like Colt Cabana never existed, doesn't mean everybody is about to do the same thing.
What's the beef with Punk and Cabana that it's this volatile???
Cornette's podcast would be the last podcast I'll be wanting to listen to in regard to this situation. He notoriously hates Omega and the Bucks so of course he's going to say Punk's frustrations are valid. No objectivity whatsoever.
What do they say about meeting your heroes?! You didn't even have to meet this motherfcuker!
