The problems that MJF needed to turn face. He probably needed to no matter what, but especially post-Brawlout. Fans needed a new top babyface to get behind then and there with the old top one leaving on such a sour note. But Tony just had to stick artistically to his original plan. (Not like that was a priority with Punk around.)
Chico was right. Tony was wrong. You know it. I know it. The whole AEW viewing audience knows it. But it's too late to back down now.
