If MJF runs his mouth at the next Media scrum you think he reinforces his door?

Tony Kahn needs to take this opportunity to show he’s a good leader. If he rectifies this situation with minimal damage that’s a win for him.
I agree with this. Especially after sitting next to Punk without saying anything during the presser (which I sympathise with a bit as he just looked out of his depth, but at the same time he's supposed to be the head honcho so it's not a good look).

If he manages all this with only suspensions, everyone staying employed and no incidents for a few months at least then I'll admit I'm pretty impressed

At this point doesn't seem like Punk and The Elite can co-exist. Punk def seems to be in F this mode at this point.

No locker room in history has even been free of drama. I think there's a sqeaky clean image which has been put out by certain dirt sheet groups who are pro-AEW. Punk acted in a shitty self-serving way. I already said that. But if AEW go tits up it won't just be his fault. Punk didn't just pull this stuff from his ass. There's clearly very real issues going on in that locker room. This was just the event which brought it to a head.

I didn't quote Cornette I quoted Brian Last. His point was that the Elite starting a fight in another wrestler's dressing room opened AEW to legal action because they are excs. How can you argue with that point? Maybe it points to it being a mistake on Khan's part making them excs? Also this has been reported from another of different sources now, so there's clearly something to it.
you're certainly entitled to your opinion but ya I fully disagree and think you'd be an absolute fool to get rid of the 4 guys that built the company over one dude with issues. That's not to say they are not culpable of wrong doing, but as far as firing, every credible piece we've gotten have no once painted the Bucks at starting violence outside of banging and "kicking" a door down, and the only person relaying that is Ace Steel. I don't really care if people think there's some pro aew conspiracy , thats nowhere near a credible or fact based reason to fire 4 guys, one who wasnt even there, 1 who was trying to calm shit and 2 who got accused potentially wrongfully of leaking shit. no offence, but thats some hardcore anti elite bias if you think thats a reasonable outcome and that what they did is anywhere near as bad as Punk and Ace Steel's actions (that we know so far)

Because Hangman Page accused him of getting Colt taken off TV in an on screen promo because non-reputable dirt sheets ran with it when he first stopped appearing on the youtube shows prior to the promo despite reputable ones saying they hadn't heard it from anyone other than the same rumors floating around.

Punk thinks the Bucks were the ones that started the rumors apparently

I always liked Punk in the ring, but I always thought that he was a lot of trouble backstage. After that media scrum I really lost all respect for the guy. When he busted out the line I'm trying to run a business, while Tony Kahn was right next to him I was like wow. Tony should have stepped in right there, and be like while I'm running the business actually.

Hangman during a promo said:
" you liek to talk about workers rights, but youve shown the opposite since walking through those doors" with no kayfabe context. Punk took it, rightfully or wrongfully, as Hangman going into business for himself by sticking up for Cabana. Punk then cut a shoot promo on Hangman calling him out to fight knowing he couldnt. then punk got further mad because he thinks because the bucks are friends with hangman, they are the one leaking hes unhappy and wanting to leave and leaking that punk wanted cabana fired (which has been denied by journalists). so punk is making a lot of connection imo, and just fucking blew up because he feels its all their fault he has to talk about cabana (this is my take obviously)

Well that’s the dumbest shit ever. If Punk did get Colt taken off tv that’s whole issue right there that he’d even be able to do that.
