3 Reasons Why AEW Fired CM Punk

2 years ago By Sports Desk

All Elite Wrestling (AEW) shocked the wrestling world recently when they announced the termination of their top star, CM Punk, without cause. This decision came after an investigation into an incident that occurred backstage during the “All In” pay-per-view event at Wembley Stadium in London. Here are three key reasons behind AEW’s decision to part ways with CM Punk:

1. Backstage Altercation with Jack Perry:

One of the primary reasons for CM Punk’s termination was the reported physical altercation that took place backstage between Punk and fellow AEW wrestler Jack Perry, the son of the late actor Luke Perry. Such incidents can disrupt the harmony and safety of the workplace, and AEW took this seriously.

2. Endangering People Backstage:

In his statement, AEW CEO Tony Khan expressed concern about the safety and security of individuals backstage during the incident. He stated that he had never felt his security, safety, or life were in danger at a wrestling show until that particular incident. This raised significant alarm bells for AEW’s management and contributed to their decision to terminate Punk’s contracts.

3. Past Controversies and Incidents:

CM Punk’s return to AEW in June had already been marred by previous controversies and incidents. He engaged in a controversial news conference and reportedly got into a physical altercation with AEW executives Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, and Kenny Omega in the past. Additionally, a previous incident involving Adam “Hangman” Page going off script during an interview segment with Punk had caused tension. These incidents may have contributed to a toxic environment within the company, making it challenging for AEW to maintain a positive working atmosphere.

 AEW’s decision to fire CM Punk with cause was based on a culmination of factors, including the reported backstage altercation, concerns about safety, and past controversies. While Punk was undoubtedly a major star in the wrestling world, AEW decided that his actions were not in the best interests of the company and its employees, leading to this surprising termination.
