God that all feels like ages ago, but yesterday all the same.
Speaking of video games, would you guys look at me funny if I told you I always thought Wrestlemania 2000 was better than No Mercy?

They heeled out on Kenny and Jericho before they left. The seeds were there.
Baffles me that people seem to be such big Punk apologists and acting like he did nothing wrong in any situation ever, when in fact the AEW stuff is easily like 80% his fault lol.
That was normal angry heel actions with Jericho and Omega though. Not a big indication that they were big boss heels as they play now. They disappeared for months and returned at this role. Using the online stuff we have heard a few years about.
And it’s not about Punk being wrong or right here. It’s how this would have worked had they not been scared of him last year. And them coming out doing a heel EVP boss role with Omega would have been gold.
This seems like a year too late right now. Like the big time heat and attention from the Brawl was right when you roll with it.
It’s like when Vince thought he’d be cheered after the backstage fight with Bret Hart. Then he saw that nope…no one thought he was in the right and he quickly seized on the Mr. McMahon character. People blamed Bret too then for his actions, but Vince saw how he could make money and did it.
That to me is where this was at. The world good or bad was discussing the brawl. So…make money off it.

It’s an ok angle and usually heel GM roles can be heat. I do think Tony needs to claim he can’t fire the Bucks storyline wise and they have power for now.
I comically would pop for a scene where Tony goes to make a special announcement as he does in ring. The Bucks come out and stop him…
“As EVPs we DEMAND to make this announcement !” Least when you announce something, it will have that lol.

preaching to the choir. people have even tried to put spin on his failed mma career going so far as to compare him to rocky balboa.
another way to put that would be "it's how it could've worked if punk wasn't an idiot"
it only seems that way if you're obsessing on punk. the world has moved on. this really just seems like another case where your fantasy booking didn't come to fruition(and you blame the bucks) so you claim it's no good/not working/too lateThis seems like a year too late right now. Like the big time heat and attention from the Brawl was right when you roll with it.

the bucks are doing good work right now, it has nothing to do with punk.

it would've made more sense to you because of how it played out in YOUR mind. that's fantasy booking and it's always better.
regardless just because you think your idea would've been better doesn't mean it's not working. darby's WERK SHOOTZ promo kind of hurt the angle but can't blame the bucks for that.

I agree with Super. Evil EVPs Bucks would hit if they stuck when the iron was hot. It feels too late for this. I don't particularly care for it but I've never liked the bucks so...
15 months ago people were praising the greatest booking of all time. The Bloodline storyline was scorching until Roman beat Sami. Now I am not feeling it. The Bloodline has been blah since Sami ended. I am not feeling Cody, never have. Elimination Chamber had zero surprises or heat. It is a reason why the proposed betting on Pro Wrestling is ridiculous. I am sure any and everyone could pick every winner. This Road to Wrestlemania is as blah as last years.
