It looks like Sunday's All Out pay-per-view event from All Elite Wrestling will go down in the history books, but not necessarily for a good reason.
According to several reports, CM Punk and Ace Steel got into a real-life fight backstage with Executive Vice Presidents, Matt and Nick Jackson.
CM Punk was hyped after winning the AEW World Championship by defeating John Moxley. Unfortunately, Punk couldn't keep his temper in check at the AEW media scrum. Punk called out plenty of people, including the AEW EVPs and Adam "Hangman" Page. The new AEW World Champion described the former as "irresponsible" while he used the phrase "empty-headed dumb f***" for the latter.
There are conflicting reports about what happened afterward. Some are saying that Punk threw the first punch and hit Matt Jackson. Ace Steel is also believed to have thrown a chair at Nick Jackson. But, other parties are saying that the Young Bucks started the fight after they "barged" into the locker room. Either way, the lack of footage suggested that this isn't a fabricated fight.
Most likely, we'll find out more in the next episode of AEW Dynamite on Wednesday. If AEW tries to sweep it under the rug and act like nothing happened, you best bet that something is going on.
