REPORT: CM Punk threw punches when confronted backstage by The Young Bucks after AEW media scrum
There are more details coming out on what happened last night after CM Punk‘s comments during the AEW All Out media scrum.
Boxing/MMA/Pro Wrestling reporter Steve Muehlhausen reports that Matt and Nick Jackson confronted Punk about what he said and then punches were thrown by Punk to at least one of The Young Bucks‘ members. This was all happening as Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee were taking questions from the media. At one point during the scrum, security sprinted out of the room apparently after being alerted to what was happening between Punk and The Bucks.
Muehlhausen said the following on Twitter: “Sources: There was an altercation between CM Punk and The Young Bucks early Monday. The Bucks confronted Punk about his comments at the scrum. It did get physical with Punk throwing punches at least one member of The Bucks. A number intervened to separate everyone. More 2 come”
As many of you know by now, Punk ripped his former friend Colt Cabana, Hangman Page, and the AEW EVPs as he sat next to a clearly uncomfortable Tony Khan. After the scrum, there was said to be an altercation and now we know, per Muehlhausen, that punches were thrown.
