IIRC, the AJ and Punk stuff goes back to their indy days. They're very different people with very different outlooks on life and they very much rubbed each other the wrong way.

Punk went so off the rails at "this is real glass. Cry me a river!" On a dark match that he went after Perry and TK. And I'm supposed to feel like Perry is the problem here lmao

Top of my head both Roman and Seth openly hate him. AJ said he won't work with him, too. This that has most to do with CM Punk actively tashing Jesus lol

What a bummer though.. Just two years and it ends like this. I was so excited and hopeful in Aug 2021. I feel most of us were. Such a shame.

Honestly I think that opening statement by TK might have been the biggest nail in the coffin for Punk going back to WWE for a while, if at all.
Forget various top guys wanting nothing to do with him, do you really want the PR of hiring someone that was on the verge of attacking his boss after getting into a fight with a coworker before their biggest show ever?

HOLY f***, TONY JUST SAID THAT THE ALL IN INCIDENT WAS THE FIRST TIME IN HIS CAREER THAT HE FEARED FOR HIS SAFETY AND FOR BEING HURT. If that non-wrestler report is what did him in as Meltzer said, did this dude really charge at Tony Khan of all people only to get stopped by other wrestlers? Then he spent the week sending dirt sheet stuff about how they needed him so badly for All Out? ? ? ? ? first report from Punks side is how jb started putting hands when there was footage , absolute clow

The part of CM Punk really is now being played by Bryan Danielson.

Yeah Tony made the right call. Sucks as a Punk fan, I really wanted to see him back even after brawl out and hearing him and Kenny getting along is salt in the wound cuz I would have liked to see that fued. But I guess if you ignore the backstage shit, his run was pretty decent. He ended his mainstream wrestling career wrestling his longtime rival in front of 80,000 people. Now the guy just needs to get help and hopefully atleast repair his reputation at some point

Punk will go to WWE and make racks Big loss for AEW, feel like it was mid before he returned now I fear it might get mid again after
WWE is doing jusssssst fine without Punk, and AEW will be as well.
The only entity in this whole scenario that's screwed is the 45 year old manlet
AEW was doing fine before Punk even came on board. Granted, Punk returning to wrestling did help AEW in a huge way and had some real potential to help everyone involved, but sadly all of that potential went right down the toilet.
I won't dispute it being a big loss for AEW, but ultimately, everyone gets screwed over here big time. Punk screwed himself out of what he could've been a huge part of, AEW got screwed royally for not getting return on their investment, plus the headaches he gave them. Just as importantly, it hurts us wrestling fans because the time we invested in the whole angle is wasted.

I think the only way he ends up in WWE is if Triple H can’t resist the urge to bring him in and absolutely bury what’s left of Punk’s career.
“Doofus son-in-law, right Phil? You’re putting Theory over in an I Quit match tonight, pal. Keep it short and make the kid look strong.”
