CM Punk does not like how the rumble was booked.

This version of WWE is so weird, they’re just saying shit like don’t read the dirtsheets and here’s how I would have booked the match and shit. I think right now coming from Punk this is nothing but it’s going to trickle down and people are going to feel emboldened and soon we’re going to get people two levels under punk like an Angelo Dawkins or even lower like Tozawa giving their booking thoughts and I’m excited to see who makes the biggest retard out of themselves first via fantasy booking like a fucking mark.

You guys... It's not like he's bitching about it you know, someone asked him and he replied that's all, doesn't even sound like he's mad just a bit perplexed as many other people are and with just reason, there were so many better candidates for that than Jey.

WWE is taking a bet with Jey so let's see how it plays out, personally I do agree that it is a waste of time and resources but if he can prove me wrong and can actually wrestle, that'd be great.

Punk is a retard. Cena needs to be involved in as many title hunts as possible until the end of the year. He loses the Rumble, loses EC, loses MITB, wins KoR, wins at SummerSlam. Loses in whatever PPV they run in November/ December. Punk doesn't know how to book

Emboldened is the perfect word. It unironically feels like it's becoming AEW in the sense that the wrestlers feel way too free to say whatever shit they want to because they don't fear Triple H the same way AEW's locker room doesn't fear Tony. And when you've got someone like CM Punk saying this, which spits in the face of what they're trying to do with Jey Uso, then it only gives an even louder voice to everyone not happy with that booking. Then you've got backstage problems like Graves playing out in front of everyone

Russo cared more about kayfabe than anyone today. His worked shoots were an example of why he needed clear direction and oversight. But his goal was still to suspend the disbelief of fans.
>You know that was fake so I'll point out it was fake
>Now what I'm saying now must be real
Which is a lot different than wrestlers talking about how fake everything is before during and after the show.

I am willing to bet money Cena said "No" to winning the Rumble. It's clear where he wants that story to go, and it's going to be a fantastic thing to see this desperate scramble from a man sinking deeper and deeper into heel territory to try to win that last title. Trying to get that last main event, trying and coming up short over and over again. He was the first champion cashed in on with MiTB. He's going to get his last title through a dirty cash-in.

He’s also suggesting something that fans already wanted going in and they can’t exactly go back in time and give it to the fans and Cena will never be in another rumble so he’s literally putting the company in a spot where fans could get retroactively excited for something that literally can never happen. It’s the absolute worst way to build anything in professional wrestling.

Imagine the fucking fit that he would’ve thrown if somebody in AEW said that a match that he won should’ve went differently and should’ve been booked differently.

He’s part of the company, though retard he’s not supposed to be perplexed about it. He’s supposed to be on board. Why would he try and sabotage what they’re trying by giving fans the empowerment of them being like even punk wanted the outcome that I wanted? Talk your way around the question or just fucking lie and say that you think the right guy one and that you’re happy to see them take a chance on Jey. It’s a fucking work he should know how to do it by now
