All Elite Wrestling said it has fired top star CM Punk with cause after AEW investigated an incident that occurred during its 'All In' pay-per-view.
All Elite Wrestling on Saturday announced that it has fired top star CM Punk with cause after AEW investigated an incident that occurred during its"All In" pay-per-view show last Sunday at Wembley Stadium in London.
AEW's statement, which was issued on X said Punk's wrestling and employment contracts have both been terminated. Khan, AEW's CEO, general manager and head of creative, said in an accompanying statement that he wishes he"didn't have to share this news," but made the decision"in the best interests of the many amazing people who make AEW possible every week."
Punk, 44, returned to AEW in June after suffering a torn bicep in a match last September. After that match last year, Punk engaged in a controversial news conference and then reportedly got into a physical altercation with AEW wrestlers Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson and Kenny Omega, who are also company executive vice presidents.
