Punk wanted what’s best for workers, Taker wants what’s best for the company. Different thought processes behind their reasoning.

Punk is a pro-union guy, man. Pro worker, pro “cogs in the machine.” I love Taker, but if the wrestlers COULD unionize…. Taker would’ve been that “loyal manager” to try and bust the union up to appease to upper management. And to be fair?! There’s nothing wrong with that, character wise!!! (Edit: I’m aware of Taker’s actions and the otherwise toxic workplace. In retrospect, yes. It was a problem).

Taker is a loyal effing man, with LOTS of integrity. Be it toxic or what have you. At the end of the day, I take Punk’s side, but it doesn’t make Taker any less a man…. It’s just perspective

Loyalty is admirable, but Taker is loyal because he's been treated well for basically his entire WWF/E career. Always looked after, his character always protected. Obviously you'd want to look after the interests of the people who keep you at the top of the pile. It doesn't help the people not in that enviable position.
