I'm pretty sure Vince wanted all the heat on him, not for noble reasons but for credit lol

Seriously tho, poor Earl Hebner.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Tbf, While Cornette was sympathetic to Bret, he also did not agree with Bret wanting to just hand the title on RAW the next night. Like he mentioned, everyone was a bad guy in this.

yeah I think he is a bit of a mark for the business when he says this. Brett loved the business too, I really don't think he would disrespect the title ever. he just wanted to lose in Canada

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

He's probably the only guy I'm sympathetic too in this entire thing.

 

[Comrade Khan]

to not lose**

 

[Comrade Khan]

which tbf, i will say is a diva move too

 

[Comrade Khan]

just lose when ur told to lose lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

but I understand his point, and hes not the first or the last to do it. Austin did that shit too

 

[Chris]

Yeah losing in Canada as much as Bret didn't want to for personal reasons, was the best way to end that story if he was leaving the company

kick ass heat, I can see the promotions pov here ofc

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

It sucks because Earl Hebner basically got put in the most untenable position of everyone in the company, having to be the one to actually make the decision.

 

[Comrade Khan]

I mean its count or prob lose your job. it prob felt like shit but I doubt the decision was difficult

 

[Chris]

There's also the story of Bret asking Hebner the day before to give him his word he wouldn't screw him lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

dont really have a choice

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

If Earl doesn't have that bell rung, he probably loses his job. If he does (which he did), he betrayed his best friend.
