Last August, CM Punk and Jack Perry had a backstage altercation at AEW All In. Punk was then fired from the company, while Perry was suspended indefinitely.
Last November, the former AEW World Champion made his return to WWE at Survivor Series. WWE’s creative team currently has huge plans for Punk during the WrestleMania season. However, there’s no word on when Jack Perry’s suspension will be lifted.
Many stories came from different sides regarding Punk and Perry’s altercation over the past few months. Now, DJ Whoo Kid has detailed what happened backstage at AEW All In. Whoo Kid was part of Swerve Strickland’s entrance at the show, and he was also backstage when the altercation happened.
On the Jim Norton & Sam Roberts podcast, DJ Whoo Kid said the following:
“It was like the moment for AEW and I guess he [CM Punk] tried to sabotage that moment. He wasn’t trying to go out there. I’m in the middle. You know me, I’m the fly on the wall. It was very intense. I always thought it was fake and sh-t. It’s more real, the sh-t that’s crazy. There was a yelling moment where he [Samoa Joe] was like ‘yo, f-ck this sh-t this is our moment, everybody get the f-ck out there and do your sh-t.’ It was very intense. I always respect wrestling after I saw that.
The big guy. The Hawaiian-looking dude [Samoa Joe]. It was the guy going ham and I was like, ‘Oh sh-t.’ Then blood was everywhere from the fight before that. They came in and they were bleeding. I was like, ‘what is going on around here?’ This was intense.
