>>7197623Tony doesn't have the balls to control his own employees. This is why Punk has carnied him twice. His "injuries" are just a work so goofy TK will give him more money and more leverage. A smart promoter would have Punk sign a contract where he is required to put someone over or else he wouldn't get his paycheck. Then you book Punk vs Wardlow and have Wardlow squash Punk but promise Punk he'll get 2 rematch and he'll be over Wardlow. Then when the time for Punk to go over, TK does some shenanigans stopping him from getting a W. This would be 2-3 years worth of booking. Why screw Punk? He is old and weak. You don't build a company on something like that. A good promoter will take Punk's shine to put over homegrown talent ASAP. This is what Dana White did and he is one of the best and ruthless promoters ever. That Mickey Gall match was purposely made by Dana. What Punk doesn't know is that Dana talked to his gym Roufus sports and told them to feed Punk's ego so he'll think he can defeat Mickey Gall. It's a classic boxing promoter trick and Dana is well versed in the old tricks.
