Here is the way All In should have went down.
Jack Perry does his bullshit line. Instead of Tony acting like a fan, he should know that would set Punk off. So rather than letting Punk get to Perry first, Tony meets him at the curtain, tells him to get to his locker room and keeps the two separated.
But, Tony has shown from time and time again that he cannot manage a roster. Any one of us could be funded like how Tony is with his dad and run a product on TV. But controlling the talent in a boss type way needed to be done from day one.
Installing Cody and the Elite as EVP's wasn't the worst thing in the world. But if you notice, all of the people that Punk has a problem with are the ones that have either been their since day one, or people that are closely connected to the elite. And don't get it twisted, the people that have been there since day one have more than likely been kissing The Elite's ass since they arrived.
Punk coming in was never going to be roses and rainbows because The Elite knew he was going to be a bigger draw than what they were. Ratings may not reflect that but ratings are shit with everything now a days. But merch sales...that's the true reflection in the business as to how people are perceived.
Point is, I don't condone what Punk has done. It's been childish and immature. But it's almost like he's backed into a corner with these idiots and the only way out at times is to lash out and fight back, whether it be verbal or physical.

Again, I hate to use Vince as an example but he would have probably done exactly what Splaya said or had one of his right hand men do it and never let it get to that level. Say what you want about him but it was well understood the HE was the boss and should not be crossed.
Punk is not absolved for his actions but the entire state of the locker room is TK's fault.
