AEW made history on Sunday when All In aired live from Wembley Stadium, but the historic achievement isn’t the only thing people are talking about. CM Punk was involved in a physical altercation with Jack Perry prior to his match with Samoa Joe at All In, and it’s also been rumored that the Real AEW World Champion had some sort of altercation with Miro.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select recently posted a video sharing an update on the CM Punk/Miro rumors, and he clarified that during the exchange between the two AEW stars they were simply joking around.
“From one side of things, the Punk side of things, I heard just like… ‘No’. And then from the Miro side of things, which wasn’t Miro directly – who by the way, quote-tweeted WrestlePurists’ aggregation of Punk’s side (of the Perry situation) and said ‘not true’, so very clearly he wasn’t keen on Punk’s side of things – but they had an interaction after Punk’s match.
“It was backstage, either in the trainer’s room or somewhere, and Punk was getting worked on, etc. I don’t know verbatim what was said because I wasn’t there, but to the best of what has been relayed to me, Miro asked how Punk was doing, Punk said something like, ‘Okay unless you want to fight me too’, as like a joke, type of thing. And again, terminology, not that sure of.
“And I believe Miro, also jokingly, apparently, from what I’ve heard, was like, ‘Okay’, Punk said, ‘Well let’s take this outside then’, and Miro said something like, ‘How about we take this… to the ring!’.
“And that’s how it was explained to me by sources that lean definitely each way. And they giggled about it, and I guess walked off. But it is two guys who are very clearly willing to fight human beings, and also have been known to make a joke or two.”
