During the recent AEW All In pay-per-view event, there was a backstage incident that has caught the attention of the wrestling world. A physical confrontation occurred between Jack Perry and CM Punk, which has since been confirmed by Tony Khan, the president of All Elite Wrestling (AEW).
The altercation between Perry and Punk stemmed from a disagreement that took place several weeks ago on Collision, a wrestling show. Perry had expressed his desire to use real glass for a segment, but Punk advised him to “wrestle on Wednesdays” if he wanted to engage in such risky stunts. This comment seemed to have lingered, as Perry referenced it during his pre-show matchup against HOOK, shouting into the camera, “Real Glass Deal With It.”
Following the match, tensions escalated backstage between Perry and Punk, leading to the physical confrontation. Reports suggest that Perry made physical contact with Punk, prompting Punk to push him back. Perry then charged at Punk, who responded by putting him in a chokehold. The exact details of the incident have yet to be fully disclosed.
When questioned about the incident during the All In scrum, Tony Khan acknowledged its occurrence but stated that he could not provide further comment as the matter was currently under investigation. This suggests that AEW is taking the incident seriously and is committed to addressing it appropriately.
While the details surrounding this backstage incident remain unclear, it is evident that tensions between Perry and Punk reached a boiling point during AEW All In. Wrestling fans and industry insiders are eagerly awaiting further information regarding the investigation and any potential consequences for the individuals involved.
