AEW’s situation regarding CM Punk, the All Out post-show media scrum and the alleged fight that took place afterward is far from over, according to the Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer. For those who missed it, Punk fired off some explosive comments after winning back the AEW World Championship regarding Hangman Page and the company’s EVPs (Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks) for allegedly spreading lies to reporters about how he tried to force Colt Cabana out of the company.

“There’s people who call themselves EVPs that should’ve f—ing known better,” Punk said. “This s— was none of their business. I understand sticking up for your f—ing friends, I f—ing get it. I stuck up for that guy (Cabana) more than anybody. I paid his bills until I didn’t. And it was my decision not to.”
What happened next has been reported on by numerous sources. Allegedly, Punk was confronted by Omega and the Bucks in his locker room, punches were thrown, Ace Steel threw a chair that caught Nick Jackson in the eye and it took a large group of people to finally break things up. Meltzer explained that there’s a legal situation pending from what happened.
“Nobody’s allowed to talk or wants to talk because, well, they’re not allowed to talk because there’s pending legal issues based on what happened. It is not a work at all, and you don’t have legal issues, and police officers run in there…it’s not a work. That’s for sure,” Meltzer explained. “There’s legal people involved. There’s a lot of legal situations involved, and it can be very messy. I think that’s one of the reasons why no one in AEW is allowed to talk about it and from a company standpoint, no one is talking, but they’re gonna have to at some point address it.”
