And he got WWE to pay for a bus that's like one of the biggest things a wrestler can ask for and get in their contract. I think they got that for Punk too - and he's being used as a headliner for RAW for ticket sales. Sold out all his merchandise in a day. And he gets to keep his creative projects, including his reality shows and any other shows he's shooting outside of WWE.Cody's contract negotiating skills are on point.
"I wanna keep my theme music."
"Wanna keep my entrance attire."
"Wanna keep my hair blonde."
"Wanna keep my finisher."
"Wanna keep my ugly ass neck tattoo"
"Wanna match at Mania against a main eventer."
"Wanna beat that main eventer at Mania."
"And I want lots of 0's on that contract too."
Craziness. WWE is going to push this and probably ruin it, but incredible change from 6 months ago.
