Over the weekend CM Punk won the AEW World Championship and then he ripped into Colt Cabana, Adam Page and the AEW EVPs during the All Out post-show media scrum. It was later reported that CM Punk, Ace Steel and The Elite got into a backstage altercation where Punk allegedly threw punches at Matt Jackson, and Steel allegedly attacked Nick Jackson with a chair.
No one in AEW has publicly commented on the backstage fight and during a recent episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that no one is talking due to pending legal issues.
“Nobody’s allowed to talk or wants 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 [if it’s a work]. It’s not a work.
“There’s a lot of legal situations involved, and it can be very messy, and I think that’s one of the reasons why no-one in AEW is allowed to talk about it. From a company standpoint, obviously no-one is talking, but they’re gonna have to at some point.”
At this point it’s not clear what type of actions will be taken, but it will be interesting to hear what people in AEW have to say about the infamous altercation if it is indeed addressed in the future.
