Work at WWE; so I've got some corner gossip:
>>TKO and Rock are pissed that Hunter's actively fueling the fire regarding Hunter's planned Cody coronation being spoiled by Rock intervening to save Roman's tenure as champion
>>Hunter's argument is that he has to do it because wrestling is a fickle business and fans, especially smart mark fans, can raise all sorts of holy hell for the WWE if they feel disrespected and defied by management. Especially since, as Hunter has argued, that the WWE needs to keep those fans on their side to help deal with the bad PR with Vince going on right now.
>>Rock is gearing up for a full purge of creative and that means bye-bye Hunter and Shawn
>>There is talk about giving CM Punk his own interview segment (done akin to the JR talks on AEW) and running segments of it on TV and the full interview on Youtube.
>>Seth's also been on the warpath given how much shit he's been hit with the last couple of weeks and how disrespected his belt has received. He's been told to STFU by Hunter, since he can't deal with Seth while fighting for his life to avoid a coup by Rock/Roman and that Hunter's made several "I'll make it up to you" promises to Seth to try and placate him (most notable, Hunter offering Seth first dibs on Okada if Hunter manages to sign him, which would mean Okada will become Seth's personal jobber to make Seth feel special).
