This is from David Scherer(PWInsider founder)
David Scherer is a clown who claimed that AEW booking Colt Cabana was equivalent to WWE firing Punk on his wedding day.

That thunder Rosa response is literally how Russo defends his shit. Bro you're still talking about my awful idea so clearly it was good. People "talking" about it doesn't make it inherently good. I get she wasn't going to bury him and doesn't have insight who is being hired or fired. But she could have just said nothing. I mean Rosa works with Bully Ray in Busted Open Radio, Bully has the same kind of mentality lol.
Busted Open Radio is for dads who are only allowed to see their children on the weekends and still don't.

“Okay. We can’t hire Ace Steel back, but what if we blackball Colt Cabana from wrestling?”

I love that Noone can decide any detail of what actually happened with Brawl Out, but we all universally agree that Ace Steel barged in, threw a chair, and bit Kenny for some goddamn reason

Ok so like, was the Ace Steel hiring actually confirmed? Because multiple sites and it seems AEW themselves were denying that it happened. If we're gonna go full bitch mode on Khan and lose all respect for him, I'd like the story to be concrete fact, and it doesn't really look like it's the case
At this point I'm just exhausted, Punk can come back or not, dude's an albatross at this point when it comes to at the very least online drama. I get WHY they want him for Collision, but man... at some point you gotta ask yourself if you can really pull this off without a disaster.

After all this Punk is gonna come out on the Collision debut and do a knee slide or someshit celebrating on the ramp and tear both his ACLs or something and I will ascend to a new plain of existence

If I had a dime for every time a wrestling promoter rehired a problematic figure in secret because they knew it’d be a bad look, I’d have two dimes. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s still weird that it happened twice.

She also could've just said "I'm not really involved in that situation, so I can't comment on that", or something to that effect. But, she’s not saying anything wrong though? Ever sense he’s been gone, people have, infact, been talking about him, good and bad. And he’s definitely a great talent for sure. She’s not saying anything all of us don’t already know. The bashing on her is is really unwarranted I agree with this. I think Rosa is just playing good company woman at a time where she's also trying to rehab her image after her own problematic period with the locker room. I'm not going to really fault her for that.

Short of seeing the guy's contract or him turning up at a taping, there isn't going to be any confirmation. Most (if not all) of the dirtsheet reporters seem to think there's some truth to it. Whether they're independently confirming it or just listening to each other is up for debate.

Meltzer just reported on Observer Radio that they have Daily's Place ready as a backup if Punk falls through which is what I expected. So it's either United Center with Punk or Daily's Place without Punk.

So now its the top guys who have issue with Punk and not just 99% of the locker room Keller?
I guess the "top guys" who want Punk gone are Mox, Bucks,Jericho, Hangman, Cole? Jarrett? QT?

So it's either United Center with Punk or Daily's Place without Punk. You know things are going well and your idea is absolutely iron clad when you have to have a backup venue for if your big star falls through and the difference is a place that seats over twenty thousand or the practice field for your dad's football team that seats 5,500.

If TNT/TBS want some fresh, unscripted programming, they should commission a one-off show where the AEW locker room gets to anonymously decide whether to vote Punk off the AEW island.
