Now the Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that CM Punk was “ranting like a mad man” during the aggressive confrontation.

“The story we were told was that Punk came up to Nemeth as he was against the wall in the locker room, brought up the tweet and said, “Do we have a problem or are we good or do we have to take it outside.” The version was, this was aggressive. One person called it ranting like a mad man and another, defending Punk, told us at the time that Punk was handling business like a man and that all was taken care of and things were settled.”

CM Punk reportedly views AEW Collision as his show and has veto power regarding who can and can’t be there.
