I don't think it's a matter of them being petty as much as not wanting to pay him whatever he is asking.
I think that he would have to allow them to license his name and he could ask for whatever amount of compensation he wanted in return.

If they replace him with Hardcore Holly, several FAN members will experience extensive brain trauma.

Cosmic retcon in comics?
Damn it, who punched a hole in spacetime? Cena, I'm looking at you.

As for who's replacing him... I agree with the article that it pretty much has to be Dean Ambrose.

Its doubtful, but what if it had nothing to do with royalties or trying to pretend he doesn't exist, but instead Marvel asked them to stop so they could be the only company to capitalize on his name? I mean, if you saw Punk's name on a comic, would you pick up the one with Thor on the cover, or the one with an actual picture of him on it?

Or, more likely, just do it anyway because continuity is for pussies and if the actual show doesn't need any the damn kids picture book doesn't need any either. -Vince |

Replace him with an original masked character who'll later debut, ala Suicide.

Who's gonna replace Punk in the retcon? That Masked Man from SmackDown vs. Raw 2009?

This meta humor would fit right in there. Of course, the other answer can be delivered in 3 simple words: "WE'RE TAKIN' OVERRRRRRRRRRRR!" Now, serious question: has this been done in comics before? I mean, dubbing a character over in reprints? I know Toyfare did it when they compiled their Twisted Toyfare Theatres and had to get rid of the DC characters. |

Abeyance. Vacant is Marvel's ripoff. |

Remember a few years back when Ozzy Osbourne's old band went to him and Sharon and said "Uhm, royalties?" and Sharon got pissed and demanded all of their instrument tracks got wiped for some upcoming Remastered releases and replaced by versions performed by Ozzy's current band?
Same thing.
