CM Punk is 100% a little bitch who can’t handle anyone thinking he’s not the greatest of all time.

But AEW definitely needs to fix their management problem. I oversee 300+ staff (so about the size of AEW men’s roster LOL) and in any workplace there will be disagreements and people hating each other, but you have means and processes to follow to ensure things don’t escalate. I get that it’s going to be much worse in a steroid fuelled, testosterone high environment, but that’s why you spend the money he has to bring in people capable of dealing with it.

There is no way he would terminate CM Punk unless there was undisputed legit evidence and reason to do it.

The fact that he had the guts to go out there and face the Chicago crowd to explain it because he actually cares, shows me something.
He's using magic words that his dad's lawyers told him are the grounds to fire CM Punk in case he sues them. That isn't guts. That's being a fucking fanny while pandering to dizzy prats like you who don't know any better because Tony needs to be constantly reassured that everyone likes him.

That's if you're lucky. This might be Michael Nakazawa's best chance to get back out there with his baby oil gimmick.

Also. Remember recently when Colby Convington threatened to slap Dana if he tried to put the belt on him? Dana was asked about that at a press conference and Dana's response "we’ll see about that. Good luck with that. He’s a big-mouth fucking idiot".

That's how it's done. Given Tony is a fan of Dana surprised he didn't square up when Punk threatened his life and the lives of all his employees.
Trying to imagine Vince or Dana saying they feared for their safety so they fired someone.

True.

Edge. Feel like there's a 75% chance Tony threw more money at him than he could say no to just so he could have him debut and get a reaction for one night.

This.

The other reason Tony keeps saying those magic words of "not feeling safe" are because fights (workplace violence) have happened at AEW and no one has gotten fired. There has been precedent set but apparently up until now, no one has ever felt unsafe. Now that this threshold has been crossed, there are grounds for termination. That's how he's going to deal with things going forward. He'll threaten to scream "I DONT FEEL SAFE!"

Self awareness > Bravado

Vince and Dana are genuinely horrible human beings and not shining examples of how one should conduct themselves or their business. People conveniently forget the amount of free range Vince afforded stars like Hogan, Michaels and Austin.

Despite TK's series of poor decisions, they pale in comparison to Vince's. Scheming Bret Hart out of the title in '97, aiding Snuka to cover up a crime (allegedly), leaving wrestlers behind in Saudi Arabia, hush money payments for sexual favors amongst many other.
