Wbd dont read the sheets
If the narrative being reported is true in its entirety, they wouldn’t need to read the sheets. They would just know what the situation is.

But yeah basically what all the regular guys are saying is

AEW: absolute silence on the situation

WBD: hopeful it's resolved within the week

Nah I can see a scenario where AEW is downplaying it a bit to make them worry less too tbf that's if it is as bad as the worst stories, but I'd imagine they know most of the details themselves bc they'd have to have had a lot of questions when told to remove Punk from everything

Oh by AEW I should have specified like Tony and other management. I don't doubt other wrestlers are talking whether they know a lot or a little. Most just probably don't know much (which could lead to much wilder stories of course)

Srs n meltz also said aew was gettin collision w or wout punk anyways too so its prob nbd to them, just a "bummer". I also feel wbd doesnt give a shit about a brand split just give em content that scores them ratings on saturdays

I think it’s pretty stupid if the narrative is true. Don’t blow up a monumental career and a great deal over Ace but I get it. After having such a public blowout with Colt, you want to ensure you have the back of the guy that actually had your back in a pinch or a fight as it were, but punk needs to realize that if Tony is legitimately gonna let him work in any capacity, you did that. Ace would be grateful for anything after he bit a dude.

Even if you take away the "EVP" status, he literally bit a founder and biggest stars in the company lmao

Imagine if QT Marshall bit CM Punk, we'd never hear his name again

A soft split might still be a good idea anyway so that Tony can’t accidentally forget to book somebody for three months.

Travel reasons too, people shouldn't work both shows a week for logistics reasons but they can switch up which ones are on each show weekly, nobody just on one or the other

Yeah but catering to top stars is inevitable, you just can't make exceptions for their friends in these situations lmao
