Another year in AEW and another suspension for CM Punk
“Jungle Boy” Jack Perry took a shot at CM Punk during the AEW All In Zero Hour this past Sunday. He told Punk to “go cry a river” after using real glass in a Limousine spot with HOOK during their FTW Championship match.
Punk had tried to stop Perry from using real glass in a taped segment on Collision a few months ago as Punk found it unsafe and thought that Perry wanted to use real glass so that he wouldn’t have to show up to work next week. Punk reportedly even told Perry that he could work on Dynamite if he wanted to do that stuff because they don’t do dangerous stuff like that on AEW Collision.
As noted before, Fightful Select reported that Perry had a physical altercation with Punk when he went backstage after his match with HOOK.
PWInsider Elite reported that Punk “went after” or even “hit” Perry. They also noted that Perry was told to leave the Wembley Stadium immediately after the incident and Punk was also told to go to his hotel soon after.
Punk’s side told Fightful in an update that Perry approached Punk backstage and “stepped in his face” and “bumped” Punk. Punk was said to have then pushed Perry. Perry allegedly “came at Punk and got choked.”
Some other people claimed to Fightful that it was Punk who approached Perry, exchanged words and then Punk “threw a punch”, grabbed a “front face lock”, which was broken up.
PWTorch reported that Punk threatened to quit AEW after the fight.
The Wrestling Observer reported on Monday that the belief within AEW is that both Punk and Perry are suspended while the fight between them is being investigated, and they won’t work the All Out pay-per-view in Chicago this Sunday.
In a new report from Fightful, people close to Punk claim that there hasn’t been much communication between Punk and Tony Khan since the incident at All In.
Perry had told a couple of people he was planning to make a comment during his match with HOOK.
Punk has went as far as telling people that he “hates” AEW because of the constant issues he’s facing in the company. Many people think he’s responsible for the issues himself and are frustrated about the situation themselves.
Punk flew out of London on Monday afternoon.
