According to a report from PWTorch, during the episode of Dynamite following Punk’s return, he made an appearance shortly after his comeback. In a noteworthy incident, Punk approached Ryan Nemeth in the locker room. Sources have revealed that Punk engaged Nemeth directly, confronting him with intense emotion. Punk reportedly confronted Nemeth at close range, raising his voice, and in an assertive manner, inquired if there was an issue that needed resolution, or if matters needed to be settled out of the locker room.
Punk told the young AEW wrestler that his comments on Twitter inflamed existing tensions between him and certain people in the company. He also said that the optics of the tweet sent a bad message.
The confrontation was seen by several wrestlers, who characterized it as awkward and weird. Nemeth moved the argument out of the locker room, leading to Punk to continue to berate him. Nemeth tried to defend himself as he noted calling Punk “soft” since Punk fired the first shots at the Bucks, leading to Punk to push back on the timing of it and it worked against the public image they were going for, which was to have everyone on the same page or not reignite past issues.
The report noted, “Nemeth then asked Punk if he shouldn’t react to things Punk says on TV and Punk said that’d be the right choice at that time. Then they shook hands, but apparently, the tension was still high as they went their separate ways.”
Nemeth talked to friends backstage about the incident and asked how to handle the situation.
Not everyone is against Punk. As the report stated, Punk has received good reviews for his leadership behind the scenes and is fiercely protective of Collision being a low-drama environment. Punk reportedly sees the show as his and wants to proove he can provide the type of leadership that he is critical of the EVPs in The Elite.
