Update on CM Punk and Jack Perry altercation at AEW All In. (Patreon)

CM Punk and Jack Perry had an altercation backstage at AEW All In.

Details are few and far between at the moment, but we have learned that Jack Perry and CM Punk had an altercation shortly before CM Punk went to the ring for his AEW All In match. Jack Perry was on right before him, and did a spot on a car window, and said "it's real glass, cry me a river." This was a shot at Punk, who had a confrontation at an AEW Collision taping this Summer over Perry's insistence on using real glass for a spot on the show. We're told Perry wasn't happy with how the situation was relayed publicly by those close to Punk.

We have learned the following regarding Punk's side of things, which claims that Jack Perry approached CM Punk backstage and "stepped in his face" and "bumped" Punk. Punk was said to have then pushed Perry. Perry allegedly "came at Punk and got choked." We haven't heard of a particular kind of choke or who broke things up. Please note this is only one side of the story, and more details will emerge.

Miro has claimed the Punk side of the story "was fake and untrue," and other versions allege that Punk threw a punch and that Punk stepped to Perry first. Other accounts claim that Punk initiated things. They exchanged words, Punk got in Perry's face and pie faced him. Punk allegedly grabbed Perry in a front face lock and it was broken up.

PWInsider has reported that Jack Perry was sent away from the venue and CM Punk was still at Wembley for a time. Eventually Punk was also asked to leave. Wrestling Observer claims that they were removed by security.

We've reached out to both CM Punk and Jack Perry for their sides.

To clear up a misconception regarding their prior argument and "Perry trying to not come to work the next week," we're told he had a pre-planned and approved vacation.

Tony Khan confirmed the altercation and said an investigation was going on.
