Sounds like they are wasting their time to me. They should be concentrating on improving their products which is in dire need of major improvement. Heck, I doubt that doctor was planning to go and do anything outside the WWE anyway.

I still believe that Punk's at least partially correct. Amann just seems like a formality for the company, and not actually there to ensure the wellbeing of the wrestlers.
Punk isn't there for anyone else's well-being either, so let's not view him as being particularly noble.

These zoomed in shots of Punk's ass are hilarious.
Great video.
A doctor's reputation is very important. I think Amann's lawsuit is fair. I don't think WWE should be publicly involved in the matter though.

Who cares if he exaggerated the size. If the doctor truly ignored the signs of a staff infection that a subsequent doctor was able to diagnose immediately based on symptoms and a quick glance at the region, then the doctor deserves the shit talking.

fuckin' called it, man
Someone in the editing department had to cut together a video zooming in on Punk's ass.
Like that was their job for a day.

A lot of it is likely internal. That plus it being under his tights probably makes it hard to see. I don't doubt that it being "baseball size" is still an exaggeration though. It's been a while since I've heard that Punk podcast, so I don't remember how literally "baseball sized" was meant to be taken.
WWE's probably getting involved because WWE instigated their doc into suing him so they can get at Punk indirectly without leaving themselves open to as much legal scrutiny. Proxy lawsuit, basically.

One is a doctor, one is a sports entertainer. I dont understand why you would think him not being there for other's well being is a slight against him, as it would be for a doctor, someone employed to look out for the well being off their staff.

The silly thing about WWE's rebuttal of the claims, saying that Punk never spoke to them about him have a Staff infection and them having no records of the fact is that it doesnt in any way disprove what Punk has said.
We were told that he told the doctor what it was and the doctor repeatedly said that it wasnt a staff infection and it was just some fatty deposits and he had to have the Z pack for its treatment. In that case, all the records would have ever said is that he had fatty deposits, not 'Patient suggested it was a staff infection but it wasnt and so i treated him for this instead'.
I dont know all the facts but i would be willing to bet that they just didnt want him to stop working at the time and so lied to him about his condition and just secretly treated the staff infection but claiming they were treating something else.

The doctor is claiming Punk never showed him a bump and he prescribed no antibiotics for a bump or concussion.
So if the Podcast wasn't it this will be the nail in the coffin that Punk ain't coming back to the WWE after this. Vince could of just told the doctor to let it go and pay him off because they lost one suit against Punk already. That WWE statement just tells me that they don't give a shit about him at all lying or not. I can't wait to see how this turns out.

It's also possible that the WWE is using Amann as a proxy for their own devices.

Oh, yeah. He's definitely the FAR lesser of two evils, though.
Is Punk a doctor whose sole job it is to monitor and treat people to improve their well being?

i feel like punk is the sort of guy who could come out and say 'yeah i lied' after this and think that means he's still the most honest and real guy ever
but i dunno if he lied or not obviously, will just casually watch and see what happens from afar.

if it was that obvious and that far above his pant line there'd be a shit load of clearer pics of it. Didn't Punk say it was above his ass crack, not on his side?

Makes sense that it'd be difficult to see in his matches, it was covered up by his trunks.
That's what I thought as well. The picture is interesting though.

This is probably top priority for Vince above the show. He loves having petty fights. I bet he wastes several hours of tv time on this.

Oh my god, there's a huge crack in his butt.
And a dimple on the left.

Yes. The bump in that picture is just an illusion caused by Ryback's shadow.

Hard to tell what's going on here. Is it part of a shadow? Or is there a video of the match?
AJ being one of the best diva champiions of all time, and not even getting a mic, shows how little respect actual wrestling fans have for the divas division. Hilarious.
No. But the insinuation he's doing this to better others lives is ridiculous. He took the WWE to task for a pay-off. Punk isn't trying to expose WWE or improve conditions for people there. And he has no obligation to. Yet people still see him as David vs Goliath.
Can you see it in the match video? Seems like something that would have come up by now...

None of this has to do with what Punk is doing for the well-being of others. I don't know where you read this out of something. It's not a logical or relevant critique of his behavior in this situation.
Nobody else is willing to throw rocks at Goliath. David's personal motivation for slaying Goliath could have been for personal gain and he still would be praised by the others who were oppressed.
I can't see anything in the video. He got hit with a kendo stick a bunch in that match so it could just be a bruise off that.The scar he showed in the radio interview is closer to the middle of his lower back than the mark from the pic.
Vince beat the Government!
Vince beat a billionaire!
Vince beat everything!
He can't let one of his circus monkies get the better of him.
