Just when you think things couldn’t get any worse for CM Punk, more information comes out regarding the brawl that took place backstage following AEW All Out.
According to F4WOnline’s Dave Meltzer (via the Wrestling Observer Newsletter), multiple top stars in All Elite Wrestling no longer want to work with CM Punk due to his actions following the AEW All Out pay-per-view.
“A few names were mentioned with Chris Jericho being the name mentioned most but that many, if not most, of the key top names were saying that they wouldn’t work with him,” Meltzer wrote regarding the situation.
Another top star in AEW said, “Punk won’t be back. His value on screen isn’t one percent worth the hassle and black cloud he causes backstage.”
Meltzer also went on to clarify the current story making the rounds this week involving CM Punk’s dog Larry who was reportedly hurt during the All Out backstage brawl. This report has been shot down by multiple people to Meltzer in recent days.
“A completely made up story,” said one person regarding the story. “He’s (Punk) losing (in the investigation results) and is desperate. There was a multiple weeks long investigation and this was oddly not discovered? Hmm. Also, it’s so happened to be mentioned the moment there was news about (the Bucks & Omega) possibly coming back? It’s insane that people would even humor this. The dog story is a complete lie,” said a neutral party who was in the locker room seconds after the incident occurred. “When the altercation was happening Punk was a total psycho. Kenny picked the dog up to save him from being hurt and gave him to Megha. Megha was holding the dog screaming at Punk to stop. Punk didn’t even register that his `baby’ was being held by a stranger in the middle of a fight. It didn’t stop him one bit.”
It certainly seems at this point, unless something drastic occurs, we have seen the last of CM Punk in All Elite Wrestling.
