HHH is in charge of talent relations, but the "relations" don't look so good

[Deoxyribonucleic A.C.I.D.]

Brock Lesnar, CM Punk, Rey Mysterio, Alberto Del Rio, Jim Ross. What the hell is going on Mr. Executive Vice President, Talent, Live Events & Creative, Paul Levesque, aka Triple H?

Seriously, what the hell has happened these past two years? Has anyone even considered this notion? Are these names just coincidence?

You can counter with Finn Balor, Hideo Itami, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Kalisto, Adrian Neville, Bray Wyatt, The Shield, etc.

Plus, Brock is still there. Rey's knees are shot, ADR was boring, CM Punk is CM Punk, and Jim Ross was barely around towards the end of his run.

Stupid.

JR was drunk during a press conference.
some of the others were fired when the network tanked
you have a case with del Rio and punk though.

Lesnar will calm down when dollar signs are flashed in front of his eyes

The more you think about what Punk said, the more ridiculous you should realize it was

Rey Mysterio barely wrestled enough to be qualified as talent

Del Rio seemed to be looking for a way out instead of just waiting through the last few months of his contract.

Jim Ross was rapidly becoming a person out of place in WWE.

Unless he was telling the truth. If he was telling the truth, he was treated like garbage. If he's lying, he's a pile of shit. Either way, we really don't know.

Here's what we do know:

If Punk seems to think that by just working hard, he was going to change WWE's perception of him, he's a deluded, self obsessed half wit. That and "I know what I'm worth" comes off as even worse. Yes, we know what you think you're worth, and then the people that sign your checks has what they think you're worth. Their opinion matters a bit more. On top of all that, this nonsense that someone is weakened by losses was proven incorrect by one Daniel Bryan when he consistently lost and got bigger and bigger and bigger.

Punk is comparing his compensation with dudes that have a longer history with the company than him. Maybe just maybe, the company like to give a little more to those that they have a longer working relationship with. Or they negotiate a better rate than Punk's agent.

There's no way Punk was telling the complete truth, and the WWE's side is in no way the complete truth either. The actual truth is somewhere in the middle, other than the fact the Punk simply walked out on his contract. That's one black mark on Punk. That is as unprofessional as you can get.

If you really think Triple H was the catalyst for JR's departure, I'm sorry to say you haven't exactly been paying attention that well for the last decade (at the least)

I mean, if he were an employee, you'd be right. Employees leaving is usually not a good look...

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

Out of that Punk podcast there is one thing that i don't get; if H halted his push; ok fine that feud with hunter and then Nash wAS STUPID but he then got the title SS, held it for 434 days.

 

[ABMorales787]

Even Punk has been saying he exaggerated the story.
