I believe CM Punk is on a higher tier of star than Seth Rollins, I’m not asking you to agree or disagree. I am asking if you think the WWE World Heavyweight title is on a lower tier than Roman Reigns’s Undisputed Universal Title? And I’m also asking, if CM Punk vs Seth Rollins happens for the WHC, main eventing one night of Wrestlemania, does that put the title almost the at level of the Universal title, no matter who actually wins that match?
Sure, Reigns’ Title means more because it’s been around a long time and he holds it. With that said, Rollins is a top guy too. I don’t know if Punk will be in a Title match at Mania (in fact I have heard that they are trying to make a different match happen for him). Whatever the case, right now to me Reigns’ match should headline night two.
Thoughts on AEW fans being angry and insulting Punk’s promo for not mentioning them? Personally I was hoping he wouldn't and thought it was obvious he wouldn't.
Any fan that thought that CM Punk was going to go on WWE TV and mention AEW fans have shown that they not only don’t understand the wrestling business, they don’t understand business at all. WWE is far and away the number one company. AEW is a distant number two. There is no world where WWE wants to give AEW any kind of rub. Anyone who doesn’t understand that is just clueless.
Why would Tony Khan need to even run the situation by a wrestler disciplinary committee?
In my opinion? Because he is a really ineffective boss and he doesn’t want to have to make the hard decisions. Any decent manager would not have needed a committee to weigh in on the Punk-Jungle Boy situation. Then again, any decent manager wouldn’t have let the situation get so far out of hand the way that Tony did. At the end of the day, Tony is a really poor manager in my opinion.
Whilst wrestling organisations have mainly banned chair shots to the head, do you find powerbombs a worry. Watching Dynamite AR Fox's head seemed to hit the canvas hard and then whiplash violently, possibly doing some serious head damage.
Wrestling is a physical business and you can only ban so much. Pretty much every single move could go wrong so it comes down to eliminating the moves that have a higher chance of doing real damage, at least in WWE since AEW lets anything go. A chair shot to the head has a high probability of creating significant damage. A powerbomb, when taken correctly, doesn’t. That’s the difference to me.
It’s widely agreed upon that Tony Khan's booking is illogical and stupid. But it seems like all his storylines are getting ruined by injuries. Adam Cole's leg, MJF's upper and lower bodies, and all the concussions and broken bones. He needs to be more a boss to minimize this stuff but what can be done to fix the damage that's been done?
I agree on both points. Khan lets the wrestlers do stupid things that drastically increase the chance of injury. At this point, I have to assume he allows it because it pops him. What he should be doing is looking out for his workers and protecting them from themselves but hell, I just saw Bryan Danielson doing the Pirate gimmick with the eye patch on so I have given up all hope of Tony doing anything to curb the injuries.
