I'm no fan of CM Punk. But the more I look into this whole fiasco, the more I'm on Punk's side.
Hangman started all this when he went into business for himself. He tries to come off as being the heart and soul of the company, and yet he put the entire PPV at risk.
The EVPs for their part, have also been guilty of spreading rumors that Punk had absolutely nothing to do with. Why? Because they were afraid for their spot once non-indie talent started coming in.
On top of that, they then kicked down the door to Punk's locker (Yes, I know they didn't LITERALLY kick the door down, it's a common figure of speech, geeze). Anyway, you just DON'T do that. EVPs can't just go into a wrestler's locker room. What did they think was going to happen?
If they had a problem with him, why didn't they settle it professionally? These are the same dumbasses who tried to contact him with electronic messages before he joined AEW. That's not how you show you want to do business.
