>>19288129Tony's incapacity to interject and take control of the situation here, especially in light of what happened immediately afterwards and in subsequent months, stands as conclusive evidence that he lacks about seven or eight of the character traits you need to have to run a mainstream wrestling promotion. He's always been passively resigned to whatever the future might have in store for AEW. He might kid himself into believing that he has a vision for the future of the company, but he doesn't. It's "where the best wrestle" in meaningless matches and overgrown theater kids have "fun."
>>19288096To be fair, HHH doesn't have a vision for the future either.... He just assumes Bron Breakker will develop into as much of a draw as these three men did. Bron isn't a sure thing, and he's missing the two assets that Cena, Punk, and Cody all needed themselves: Vince's personal guidance and booking instincts. The Vince-era stars are due to age out soon, and there may not be any HHH-era stars. The future is looking bleak, boys.
