Regardless how you feel bout the old man. If you made him money consistently he took care of you. Lowballing both of those men and the relationship with E was affected. TKO and Nick Khan really have to reconsider how to proceed with their business model. Making money is cool but loyalty matters. The bottom line shouldn’t have to shortchange what got you there. Now NEW LEVEL is the new deal in AEW. Interesting to see this will unfold.

He wanted to keep Bret he was the one who told him if he can find a better deal in WCW than do it because WWE couldn’t afford him it was a mutual decision. The screwjob wasn’t about him leaving it was the principle over the belt against Shawn. Love how you immediately went to that thinking it was a Vince fumble.

NWO never happens if Nash and Hall don’t leave for more money in WCW. This is factually wrong and bias. Older vets have always left for better money and opportunity else where..after WWE acquired WCW..there was no alternative to go to..that’s not the case anymore! AEW pays!

They got endless money to blow a stacked roster across the board and multiple titles where TV time is seldom.

They were both past their perk. There nothing left for them expect hof. It was a great a business move. That just business.

Despite that you just don’t lowball them. Use them to build the next gen of teams from within. However they got some things to fulfill over there.

I agree new day should have retired in WWE but we also have to be honest, this isn’t gunna drastically move the needle in either direction of either company. I expect the 1st couple of new day appearances to pop a rating just like every other major WWE signing though. After that?

Retire them perhaps but if they wanted to do more I won’t hold them back. However to disrespect a staple of your locker room doesn’t send a good precedent to the rest of the guys in the back. They could have still gone to AEW no issue if they ain’t try to shortchange what they given to the business

"If you made him money, Vince took care of you" You mean the same Vince that ran off Bruno, fired Hogan, screwed Bret, told us Austin "took his ball and went home", etc?

Guys not being used were asked to take a pay cut because they were being paid big money to do nothing. Your response is, well you should just keep paying them out of loyalty. Huh? It's not like they've been working for free all these years.

Bro this is the same Vince McMahon who fired a lot of talent whether it’s during the pandemic or post pandemic not only that he retired Randy savage he signed Bret hart to a 20 Year contract only to reverse the course

Heres the problem with that first off you dont know how much the new day was making for the company. Secondly both wrestler and promoter are both trying to angle each other for as much money as possible.

"the old man" is a rapist and being a wrestling promoter doesn't make also being a rapist okay. "Regardless of how you feel..." Everyone should feel hostile to him. Anyone who doesn't is a sociopath just like him.

I love when people try to make up some bullshit about Vince to make him look good lol. Vince was always releasing or firing people. If he felt he got enough out of you you were done in his eyes

He phased aging wrestlers out or moved on from wrestlers all the time. He phased Hogan and Savage out. You could argue he was phasing Austin out before he walked out.
