It did indeed start because of them. But I think the company has grown past having active wrestlers be execs...

at least for now

I 100% think the wrestlers should have say in creative for their characters and help behind the scenes.

But it seems, to me, that backstage is becoming to out of control. And unless and until TK takes charge and puts people in charge more and more resentment is going to set in.

And yeah Punk, who I really like, is a lighting rod for both good and bad reasons.

This is pretty much Republican vs. Democratic politics personified in a wrestling discussion. - David Aug 30, 10:59 6
- I agree with you, except for AEW bringing Punk back a second time. Otherwise, the company hasn’t really changed much since the start. -- nm - Qale Aug 30, 11:21 3
  - Yeah. I like Punk (I think he's a complex person), but he should never have been brought back. - Dark Callisto 🦊 Aug 30, 11:55 1
    - I think it's worse that Ace Steel was brought back. - the wrong element Aug 30, 12:14
  - I'm pretty sure that was Zaslav's call. And you know what we think of Zaslav... -- nm - David Aug 30, 11:43
- I don't think AEW is terribly run...yet. And all your points about WWE is correct and I don't disagree. - Remlik Aug 30, 11:07 1
  - The question is why you and others spend so much time criticizing the upstart with the good intentions and the superior product? -- nm - David Aug 30, 11:11
