But in all seriousness Paul & Vince’s hubris in not considering AEW a real threat or just a flash in the pan is a huge detriment to them.

It’s honestly wild how much everyone complains about contract tampering, but then you hear like every one of those people was also complicit in it. Jericho and big show especially both confirmed that they 100% had meetings with Vince when they were still under WCW contracts. I will say Bischoff was a little smarter in WCW because he would never personally talk to someone under WWF contract but he’d have DDP talk to them about a deal that bish was offering them. Lol.

Tensions are way higher now

That was pre”I’m not gonna take this fuckin shit””
Oh for sure.

I was just saying that I don’t know if AEW had ever gotten anything back for that, since Smark mentioned a trade of sorts. I doubt now Tony would be willing to take the call lol.

What’s funny about Swerve confirming that is Top Dolla came out later and denied it when asked about it. It’s like Bro why don’t you call your friend and like get your story straight before you do damage control for a company that fired you. Lol.

Yeah I’m not gonna pretend they don’t all still do it in someway. I’d be shocked if TK didn’t have someone talk to Mox while he was still under contract

Yeah, like you definitely gotta be smart about it. Because I mean they are definitely always something going on. It’s how someone can show up right away on their contract ending. As deals don’t come together that fast I’m sure lol.

To be fair, I don’t think Paul would make the call. I’m saying if Tony made the call, Paul would pick up and would entertain a trade for the footage.

Adam Cole literally debuted the week his contract expired too. I’m not gonna say something definitely happened there, but that was the quickest deal in the history of deals.

Roddy was there before we even knew his contract was done

What I meant was, hypothetically if Tony had called, I believe WWE already owes him one. He didn’t get anything in return for that. Which if it’s tried to be said “well it was to honor someone, you don’t get anything in return for that.” Then fair play, but at the same time then WWE still gets nothing in return here, because it’s to honor someone.

But it’s a moot point anyway. Tony probably didn’t ask, video was still good at the end of the day, and Sting got one of the best send offs ever.
