Just wait until he actually wins the title like the report says he wants to.
Can Rock somehow join Bitchalla too?

I'm not really buying into the "Rock is a terrible person" and I have serious doubts he'll be main eventing WM. I say this as someone who has never even been a Rock fan. I was quite fond of Punk at one time and voting Punk.

I was quite fond of Punk at one time and voting Punk. I wouldn’t say he’s a terrible person. Vince is a terrible Person. The rock is more so an egomaniac

Black Adam's failure obviously did a number on his ego

Punk is an asshole but everyone knows it. You're either going to get along with him or not. Rock is a scheming type that has to manipulate people into loving him but has moments where his true self shines through. I'd rather work with a Punk type. Plus I've been on the "Rock sucks" train for decades. This literally defines CM Punk. The end of his AEW Run was a big mask off moment of just being a manipulative asshole. But he had then before in WWE too

Obviously Rock.
Punk might be an arsehole, but The Rock has just ruined two years worth of storytelling because of his ego.
He's now on the Mt Rushmore of selfish backstage politicians with Hogan, HBK and HHH, having displaced Cena.

CM Punk didn't try and ruin any AEW storyline that was going on for years just to boost his own ego, he tried to make his own self centered story by the end but he put people over and he also was reasonable even at his most dickish
The Rock just imploded his reputation in a day, and destroyed WWE's good will they had bought up also in a singular day, at least with CM Punk it took like months to tank himself completely as he did, and even then he never did something like THIS lmfao

The Rock won his first WWF title by selling out to the Corporation.
We should have known this was coming!

As someone who’s over both Punk and Rock (maybe the could team up as PunkRock), I was at least interested in Punk since his return. The minute Rock came back earlier this year, I legit rolled my eyes be I knew that somehow he get himself into the WrestleMania 40 main event against Roman.

I'm that guy that thought Vince turned face at Wrestlemania 17 by stopping The Rock. I've never been a Rock guy.

Rock is more hated than HHH now. Something I never thought would happen

I don’t think his daughter deserves death threats, but coming in and ruining a multi year story pushing aside a 17 year veteran who worked his ass off to finish it, as well as also f***ing over Drew, Sami ect to inflate his ego. He absolutely deserves the hate he is getting

Hard to say in reality since none of us are backstage to know the full story.
Within the IWC I would put The Rock. I’ve seen no one taking up for him and he is being universally panned. With Punk he kept support of his hardcore fans and also strong support from the Cornette/anti AEW/Anti Elite/young bucks fans who supported him because they want him to bury AEW/The Elite.
Punk is basically the savior for the anti AEW crowd.

A guy stole a job from a deserving candidate and in domino effect will cause at least 1 and maybe upto 3 people get lower payoffs all for his own ego.

Christ, we're actually doubling down on him being deserving of 'hate'? And the justifiable reason is that you think he may be causing people making multiple millions of dollars a year to make slightly less? It's one thing to dislike a storyline on a TV show, but this is crazy.
