Yet Even More Details On CM Punk – Jack Perry Incident, Samoa Joe Reportedly Furious – During today’s episode of Wrestling Observer Live, Bryan Alvarez shed light on the incident involving Jack Perry and CM Punk at AEW All In. Alvarez provided insights gathered from multiple sources, revealing various perspectives on the situation.
“Jack goes through the curtain…He goes through the glass and they’re working on his cuts. This was shortly before the show was supposed to go on the air. CM Punk walks by and he says ‘do you have a problem with me?’ Jack Perry says something to the effect of ‘well, you heard what I said out there.'”
Alvarez noted that during the Brawl Out fight last year, a lot of people didn’t see all of the fight but this time, there were a lot of witnesses there, including Tony Khan. Alvarez continued, “CM Punk, according to several people said something to the effect of, ‘you know I can beat your ass, right?’ Then there was an incident. It was very quick…Pretty much 100 percent (of the witnesses said) Punk made the comment and either shoved of pie-faced Jungle Boy, grabbed him in the guillotine front headlock and it was immediately broken up. Somoa Joe was right there, everybody was right there. Nobody got their ass kicked, there was nothing like that.”
Alvarez reiterated that this all happened very close to Tony Khan. He said, “They got close enough to Tony Khan that I believe monitors were knocked down onto Tony Khan. He was right there and he saw everything and a lot of people were right there and they saw everything.”
Alvarez said that Punk was furious and “Several people said he threatened to quit and he didn’t want to go out for the match…I believe they went to FTR and The Young Bucks and they were like, ‘can you guys open the show?’ and the response was, ‘we’re not ready to open the show.’ Then they went to the six-man with Kenny and Hangman and all those guys and they were like, ‘can you open the show?’ and they were like, ‘I guess we can’ and so they were getting ready to go out. I was told that Joe was furious. He’s at Wembley, there’s 80,000 people there and he’s about to go out and apparently, he talked Punk into doing the match.”
As noted earlier, both CM Punk and Jack Perry have been suspended following the altercation. Details of the incident are still under investigation, and the length of the suspensions has not been disclosed.
