Good lord this company, its a miracle Wrestlers have a change of heart and think of their fans and decide to patch things up with that office in Stamford. Im not saying they're always in the right and Vince is always in the wrong (This punk example is one where its complex but even then I see his point about health). I mean goddamn, a year after acquiring WCW and ECW, think about it they nearly left on bad terms with Hogan, Rock and Austin the 3 biggest names in the business for a variety of reasons. I know at that peak's end was when a lot of mainstream and casual fans left wrestling too or watched only on and off cause they couldn't keep those dudes at least on good terms and part time apperainces (and yo I slept on so much piff from like 06-08 losing interest in WWE from like 2006-2011 cause the names were going. I take the L on that but I know I wasn't the only one)


Things fell off bad when Eddie died. He was untouchable and it was over just like that. Then the Benoit stuff..fans were so sick of Cena by that point that the E looked lackluster and backwards. The innovation was gone. The drive to be a force in entertainment was over.

Just got done listening to this for the second damn time, shyt was fukking amazing. Most enetertaining wrestling related thing for a while i was fukking gripped.

Spent the past 2 days reading this whole thread too, all 60 fukkin pages of it. Fukkin good discussion.

There is so much to this story i dont know where the fukk to start. I'm a massive punk fan and i'm glad he got out just in time - we ain't ever seing the gawd back tho :mjcry:

Jazzy jeff jarret needs to throw the whole fukkin gfw finances at signing the bitw - the force is about to put this carny to bed :wow:

Rather mark for a wrestler than a male pornstar :scust:

Shows how much you're invested in me...telling. Now as for that fraud from Chicago, he bytched...he whined...more importantly, he said he was a failure at wrestling. There's not enough gimmick smilies on this site that can change that #SELFEther

And we all know how punk is all about getting what he deserved - he seemed very happy with his settlement payout which leads me to believe he made some serious fukking paper. He made a point of highlighting the fact he felt he was underpaid during his tenure (even tho he was probs making decent dollar) but he legit seemed happy with his settlement figure. Need to know that figure

For everyone saying Hunter is mad, explain that to me. He is the future chairman of the WWE with millions in the bank and millions more to come. He trolled Punk out of the biz and if Punk ever does want to come back, it wouldn't just make Punk richer.. it would make Hunter richer...

How does he lose? :heh: :mjpls:

One thing is certain...if that Network doesn't produce legit revenue next year, he won't be running anything 10 years from now. They took a shotgun to their PPV providers. So that will never be the same again.

If I had to guess, he's pissed about Punk talking in public about very "private" meetings and conversations between talent and management. Specially because management didn't came out looking good in any of those exchanges.
