Wonder what Ace Steels new contract was cause I mean you rehired him after biting a dude (so dumb) and he technically did nothing wrong to warrant this firing...
fwiw Ace Steele got released, not fired. I have no facts but I am guessing that he just got paid to retire as his job there was literally to do creative for punk...and now punk is gone so his job title is kind of defunct.

Punk on the other end, he might legit be out millions of dollars

That's fair release fired meh tomatos future endeavored. But yeah he probably got cut a check and told to go home. If they were smart he'd have been on like a monthly until he proved himself again.

I'm sure Punk is suprised we haven't heard about a lawsuit claiming he wasn't at fault.

I just love how Punk was exposed too -

Punk : I want to work with the bucks and kenny lets meet
also Punk - never apologized for the fight
also Punk - bans Bucks adjacent folks from collision
also Punk - sends lawyer letters about BTE
also Punk - Counterfeit Bucks
also Punk - shoots on Hangman again
also Punk - Leaks story about Jungle Boy and real glass
also Punk - threatens to no show because Ace Steele was banned from buildings even though he should have never been rehired
also Punk : How come no one wants to work with me? man the bucks are so immature I wanna let things go !

WON - According to one person very close to the situation, The Young Bucks had said if six months went by without CM Punk having any issues, they would have been willing to sit down and work with him.​


At the same time that a meeting between The Elite & CM Punk was pitched, AEW had informed The Young Bucks of a legal letter sent to the company claiming they had violated the agreement to not talk negatively about the other publicly.

Evidently it was from a BTE skit that was a storyline that had started years earlier about Matt Jackson screwing up an endorsement deal

--

He actually thought BTE was about him and sent his lawyer - Phil is the biggest bitch in the world :heston

All he had to do was shut the fuck up

Honestly, I get why the Bucks wanted to wait. Like it is still fresh in the minds and in some ways you need some time to pass to maybe reflect yourself, some hostile feelings to fade, or maybe for the other party to show that they do want to improve things too. The BTE skits I know, it was pretty fucking funny, but it was clearly sort of poking light at the fact that the Elite's contracts were up and they were due for a big pay-day. Like jeez.

Then yeah, that behaviour means I don't blame the Elite for wanting to hold off on a meeting.

it wasn't though, it was a long term skit about Matt wasting all their money. could it have been a subliminal dig, sure, but there is zero way to prove that and it certainly would never hold up in court. also, if Punk felt targeted, maybe he could have just apologized :p

but yeah, that was like a 2 month going angle on bte, tough shit he got his little feelings hurt over an internet skit, and in fact he further proved their point.

Playing devils advocate.

Punk let's meet kept having to wait
Didn't consider himself the aggressor
He couldn't ban them solo could have been a TK safety call
nothing
nothing
nothing
lol real glass
ugh dumb
And as devils advocate you see where you have to give up.

It does suck though if he was told there was a meeting in place to resolve shit and then it was cancelled. I could see how that lead to a negative attitude going to london, travel issues, a "rookie" talking shit. I see where he could get to the point of I'm going to say something to Jungle Boy. But attacking JB and TK nope ya done.
