Tony Khan's reckless booking of Colt Cabana may not be the only reason for the deteriorating relationship between AEW and CM Punk, according to fans.
All Elite President Tony Khan appears to have been forced into a hole, with the fallout from "Brawl Out" still affecting AEW. Fans have expressed conflicting feelings over Khan's decision to bring Colt Cabana back to television amid the CM Punk controversy.
According to a recent report by Dave Meltzer, the reappearance of Cabana on TV against Chris Jericho has worsened the shaky relationship between Tony Khan's company and CM Punk.
Given how Jericho is assumed to have significant influence backstage, Cabana's appearance is also partly attributed to him by fans.
Considering the current state of affairs, All Elite fans recently took to Twitter to cast aspersions on the ROH World Champion.
Check out the reactions below:
It remains to be seen if Chris Jericho will respond to these comments in the coming weeks.
CM Punk is also recovering from an injury he sustained at the AEW All Out pay-per-view
CM Punk is still nursing an injured tricep after his battle against Jon Moxley at All Out 2022, despite his continued troubles with AEW. Given the extent of the injury and projected recovery time, it is assumed that the star would only return next year, if at all.
Dave Meltzer also provided the following update regarding Punk's health status.
“CM Punk’s rehab of his torn triceps is said to be going really well.”
Punk recently appeared as a commentator at the Cage Fury Fighting. This has gotten a lot of fans talking about whether the Second City Saint has renounced the pro wrestling world altogether or if he will return to either Tony Khan's or Triple H's promotion in the future.
Whatever may be the case, only time will tell what Punk's future holds.
