how did it cost the company millions of dollars? Didn't they fire Punk with cause which freed up all that money that was tied to the remaining time of his contract?

cm punk was on tv for like 2 months and he was the biggest seller of merch in the company for the entire year

Jack Perry, without clearing it with management, wore a T-shirt that said "CHRISTIAN CAGE IS A PUSSY", which made WBD execs very angry.

I think it just said Christian Is a Pussy which probably made the execs more nervous because America's angriest lunatics might've thought it was a shot at them personally.

why is the continental crown a championship belt that can be defended at any time? doesn't that defeat the entire point of the continental classic? why not make it an annual event with prestige behind it? why do we need an intercontinental title and a continental title? i don't get it - just keep it loving simple
