i’m an e-GOD and fenix would be a good grab sure idk i don’t really care, but i’m confused about this whole contract situation because all i seem to be hearing from AEW is that mexicans just keep kicking up shit for no reason

is this situation reys fault and tony’s just sticking up for himself or what because idk what the fuck is going on

penta and rey were talking to WWE about jumping when their contract was up WAY before it was close to coming up (this is contract tampering btw)
tony got wind of this and took them off ALL IN and has kept them off TV ever since iirc
penta's contract ran out, he went to WWE
rey's contract was going to run out, but he's missed tons of time due to injury, so tony added all of that onto his contract as a fuck you to him, penta, and wwe (he's still paying him tons of money)
fenix is crying about having to honor his contract
you are now here

tony is not releasing them because he doesn't want them to go to WWE
it's not really tony's fault, it's just business. why would he let them go to his biggest competitor if he thinks they'll be an asset to them? this is the one time he grows a spine with his wrestlers and tells them no and twitter faggots go crazy.
plus you know how uppity these mexicans get.

He's right.

but if he is released then Tony no longer has to pay him
I guess you could have him on TV as a jobber, but I wouldn't trust some of these niggas not to sandbag or make their opponent look bad on purpose, but then I guess WWE wouldn't hire someone unprofessional like that so it's a never-ending series of questions.
cut your losses and fire him if he wants out, nothing of value is lost cutting someone who doesn't want part of the team.
>>
>>16778225
a big obstacle corbin faced in the fed was the suits being against him after a doctor the WWE brought in talked to the locker room trying to deny the links between brain damage, concussions and CTE, and he spoke up about how that was wrong, using his experiences in football as examples. this is an example of his character.
he's not stooging for the company so much as he's just calling it how he sees it.

All fair and I agree he's just being unbiased but it's simply in the carny nature of pro wrestling to work against promoters to levy a bigger paycheck for the boys and ostensibly yourself

Work on your google skills cuh, you missed the time MLW sued WWE for contract tampering and won 20 milly in court.
>>
>>16778267
There is no point to Tony trying to alter WWE's business, so I don't think it's that. He's trying to set a precedent where anyone looking to jump won't think they can just jump easily, but the issue is that this makes him the bad guy, it costs him money for nothing, and doesn't solve the issue of guys wanting to jump in the first place.
>>
>>16778196
He's unironically right.
Usually I'm on the side of the employee instead of the boss but he's right.
Just as retarded as those retards that sign a contract for 8 years or whatever and then ask for a release after 1 year. They invest in you for 8 years and thats why they're paying you what they're paying you. You'd get less money if you signed a 1 year contract. Thats like demanding you get a 1 year deal with the money of an 8 year deal

It's in everyone's best interests that they debut individually anyway. They're both way better off as singles guys, as a tag team they don't have much going on. Their characters are basically opposites and they don't visually work as a team. WWE would most benefit from using them they way they use Sami and Owens, hinting at an eventual rag run and keeping it short when they decide to pull the trigger. Let him drain Tony's bank account and do personal stuff, ask to take indy bookings etc.
Corbin is based also
>>
>>16778196
I would agree if Tony didn't add the injury time just to stick it to wwe. He doesn't want to be there and Tony doesn't want to use him. So why do it other than WWE living in his walls like the boogeyman. Didn't he also resign or extend Miro for no reason recently or was that someone else
>>
>>16778317
he would have let them go if they had just not been retarded and told everyone and their mother they were going to wwe
>>
>>16779079
He's done that with a bunch of guys. Brian Cage asked to leave so Tony offered him a huge contract, that was the first public complaint that Tony scrambled to cover up with money. Buddy was another one. I can't imagine how insane the payroll actually is there. There are like 160 salaried wrestlers, most of them on huge money. That's without considering all the other staff, the agents, and all the other costs. All just to put a wwe fanfic on TV. Glad dudes are getting paid, I wish he'd pay someone to book the shows as well
>>
>>16778616
if he had sufficient evidence, he would. it's not as simple as knowing you tampered with contracts, you need undeniable proof and be willing to drag it out in court for years.

keep bootlicking your slop producer big dawg

saw this on reddit and thought who tf is this jabroni but didn't look into it. sad...

Corbin isnt a mark for himself so he probably didnt care about being world champion, this was the same guy who didnt say no to being covered in dog food he knows the business

The thing that everyone seems to be ignoring is that since the beginning AEW was seen as the better alternative for the wrestlers/workers because of all the benefits and freedoms they got. A shit ton less dates to work,freedom to work the indies etc etc. And in the early days of AEW, WWE was getting a lot of shit for freezing/extending contracts of people on their way out and assumingly on the way to AEW. Its completely in Tony's rights to do what he is doing, but now it just makes him and AEW look petty af and I bet any of the fans saying 5 years ago that Vince and WWE were horrible people are completely silent now or support Tony no matter what.

the worst thing that EVER could have happened to tony was vince leaving. i have to give credit to HHH for turning the company babyface like he did. its so easy for everyone to turn against aew now, fans and wrestlers alike. its almost impossible for tony to win the battle of optics now. the only advantage he has now is the ability to massively overpay, and that he'll take whoever's old or washed up or not wanted by wwe for whatever reason.

>>16778381
You're a dumb retard, that was because WWE was engaging in monopolistic practices and MLW didn't win anything and never proved their case in court, WWE settled outside of court.

Talking to another employer while you're still employed is not tampering, only a literal basement dwelling retard would think it is. It's only tampering if the new employer interferes in the performance of your current employer, in this case, if WWE told Fenix they wouldn't sign him if he did a bunch of jobs, he had to win as much as possible. Rey needs to work as directed for the lifetime of his contract, then it's not tampering.

aye they just decided to give them 20 million because... actually i can't come up with a joke stupid enough to mock you lmao
>>16780233
no you can't you absolute moron
WWE is very careful about how they approach tampering after doing the job to MLW. instead of contacting swerve directly like they did the first time, they contacted his agent and asked about his availability. that makes it clear they want him, and when they are FREE TO TALK, that's when they can give direct offers.

god you drones are dumb as rocks
>>
>>16778406
you can start negotiating when your contract is almost up but Penta and Fenix were doing it over a year before their contracts were up
>>
>>16778196
I got now ill will towards Corby/Tom but like I don't get this "he signed the contract he should honor it in full time no backsies" bullshit mentality when it comes to performance based industry where you got like finite years to do anything to begin with.

The issue isn't just that Felix signed a mark contract and now reaps the rewards of trying to put ratings on with doing dangerous stunts and end up sawdusting his arm. He violated the money and miles rule for a manchild billionaire owner who just moved on and booked other flippy mexicans that would sawdust themselves for his amusement. Serves him right really.

The issue is Tony is apparently holding him to that contract with fuck all to do and no gain out of spite. There should be room for negotiations and compensations from both sides and both companies - it just makes Tony bad at the end of it while he might as well negotiate a payback and halfway no-compete period and just double the money he's spending paying him to sit at home for example.
