So they fire Regal and then fire the guy everyone thought was going to replace him.

If its not painfully obvious at this point, John Laurenitis is going to be taking charge of recruiting and scouting talent which backfired massively last time and it will happen again.

Yep, this seals it. It's just a matter of time before Trips gets the axe too, marriage be damned.

Joe. Again.
This really sounds like a company being super regular.

I know they already did this with Drake Maverick, but how do you fire, then rehire, then refire a guy in less than a years time?

I wonder how many guys got released after winning a title in their last match.

Hopefully Joe finally realises Vince and Co don't want him and probably never did and his pal Hunter is finished so it's time for him to move on.

This is obviously not so much as budget as it is a brand changing its image so no room for certain people. I guess it happens in corporate America all the time. They had better leave Cameron Grimes alone however.

Yeah, so that bullshit with Bron kicking down the old NXT was being defended earlier today.
Not a great look doing that.

I think Joe is done in ring but it would be nice if after a few months rehab he feels confident enough to have a cup of coffee in AEW so his retirement match can be with Punk before heading onto the next chapter in his career.

Hell, I wouldn’t be surprised if Punk felt bad for Hunter at this point

If its not painfully obvious at this point, John Laurenitis is going to be taking charge of recruiting and scouting talent which backfired massively last time and it will happen again. I'm just wondering if Laurinaitis's pitch went outright to "Hey boss you should let me do the scouting, I'll find hot ladies to hire and we can stop getting uggos off of the indies" while gently dabbing the drool off of Vince's chin, or if he was more subtle about it. His hiring sucked back then and it's gonna suck worse now so get ready.

Why am I not shocked?
This company has no future. I never thought I'd be sold but, now, yeah NBCU or Fox is buying them by the end of the current TV contracts.

I see Joe having one last run in AEW
I dont think he was ever injured, I think he's been fine to go in ring for awhile or he wouldnt have beat Ciampa and gotten the belt. He might have actually gotten good luck being out of the ring for the time he was to be fresh for another run, and I do agree one more match with Danielson and Punk would be perfect
A player/coach like Joe would also just be invaluable anywhere, dude's got the mic and ring skills to help teach the next generation A LOT.
But yeah I'm with everyone else, Hunter's projects are getting weeded out, and I feel like this is why WALTER's having a sudden states run in NXT, to see if Vince sees any reason to keep him or not.

Yeah.
I'm going to agree with some others and say it's only a matter of time until Trips is cut. Family be damned, they're disrespecting one of his loves. When you go to work and love what you're doing and then you see what you love get turned into shreds, what do you have? I mean Regal was like his right hand man in NXT. Trips said Regal would have a job as long as he wants one and that's when Trips was the head of everything. Joe was being built up as being someone to become the next Regal or Triple H there, that's why Trips had him learning all that stuff, that's why Trips was protecting him. One by one his kids, his friends and even his successors have been cut.
So really, if you're Trips, what do you have?
HBK is the only guy there that Trips has left and honestly speaking, Shawn might be next.
It's only a matter of time until HBK AND Trips are gone. Family don't mean shit when your own family's damaging you and what you love repeatedly.
