    Apparently so. I mean, the networks and their merchandisers pay them. If they're cool with the Saudi thing and not this? Oh, well. They put the money in her paycheck, their rules regardless of how hypocritical it is.

    AEW doesn't need Mandy. They already have an abundance of below average female wrestlers that can't cut a decent promo.

    my comments were more to do with society in the US as a whole(sponsors) than an attack on wwe.

    Speaking of AEW the show is supposed to get a new look and all in January 2023. It's had the same look since it's debut.

    When knows 1st leaked it was Regal wasn't happy with things behind the scenes in AEW and he wanted to coach his son. Now its...well his role just won't be watching his son as Uncle Dave brings up.

    I know it hurts fans to think Tony doesn't get played by his workers. But...he does. He's never had experience dealing with pro wrestlers and would rather be friends and as the Gunn boys said and stories are online..some talents will party with him lol.

    As much as Vince McMahon isn't good for WWE right now and has issues ; he also could draw the line on people. It was rare Vince would let personal friendships or loyalty to stars get in his way. Like with Undertaker as we saw. Vince saw someone loyal and he stood by that.

    But it's a rare deal. A lot will be the 1st to say Vinnie Mac never had wrestlers as friends. He sorta knew a lot of them were looking out for #1. Khan needs to see that here.

    Everyone has said online Khan should have made Regal the lone Executive VP once hell broke loose in summer. That Regal was the type of veteran who deserved that role. Instead he let his friends reign on...
    I'm not sticking up for Khan, I'm just annoyed that you're trying to twist the facts to agenda. You may think Khan's decision was stupid, and you're free to think that, but insisting that he was played is just plain wrong

    TK in an interview said exactly why he let Regal go (to be with his son and concerns over a substance issue), the condition Regal agreed to, and that he was going to become Papa H's right hand man.

    I mean ... Can't be more clear to some of us.

    There was no ...he's going to become HHHs right hand man. It was .."He's going back to coach his son and take a backstage role.."

    Oh yeah HHH comically spiked the ball by posting Regal on Twitter with War games gif a couple days ago. Which didn't please Tony given the not being on TV. But Trips is like...you never said anything about Twitter lol.

    This was Khan's word on it. The biggest thing Khan seemed to get was Regal was going back to be around his son. Which would make anyone think a NXT role backstage. To be close. Not a potential big role where he's going to have a hand in talent relations possibly.

    Plus he caught Khan at a time where things haven't been easy. So it likely pulled at Khan's heart here.

    i think it's kind of a running gag at this point. since the cm punk thing it's been pretty clear.

    Why are you being so dense about the Mandy situation? If a major sponsor or network told WWE they were unhappy with what she was doing or if Mandy's contract, which she willingly signed, explicitly said she can't do the things she was doing it's pretty self explanatory why she was fired. You keep deflecting to "but but people have sex irl!" Yeah they do, people also take shits irl but do we need a graphic scene of Otis taking a dump on Raw?

    If there were softcore porn level scenes on Sesame Street would you be cool with a young kid watching it? If the answer is no why are you shocked that a company with a kid and family friendly image and sponsors wanted Mandy to stop what she was doing?

    On the Regal and Tony Khan front I ask again if everything was 100% kosher why did Tony include a clause where Regal can't appear on tv as a character for a year? What's the point of that?

    No, I don't mean you, just some people trying to spin all the current goings on at AEW as some supreme work from one party to another. "Armchair smarking" basically just means typing away conspiracy theories from their chairs and and being really hardcore into them

    jeez, i thought i went over this 2-3 times already?? i agree if it's her contract she can't do that stuff then she has nothing to complain about, and i don't blame wwe for not wanting to lose sponsors. i'm commenting on society in general

    If there were softcore porn level scenes on Sesame Street would you be cool with a young kid watching it? If the answer is no why are you shocked that a company with a kid and family friendly image and sponsors wanted Mandy to stop what she was doing?
    sesame street is on public access television, how is that the same as somebody posting on their private pay to view streams or whatever??

    On the Regal and Tony Khan front I ask again if everything was 100% kosher why did Tony include a clause where Regal can't appear on tv as a character for a year? What's the point of that?
    storyline purposes and optics in general would be my guess. i think it was pretty kind of kahn to let regal out of his contract, not appearing on tv for a while seems fair to me.
