Much has been discussed about CM Punk’s tenure in AEW due to his drama in the promotion with fellow wrestlers.
Issues between Punk and The Elite (Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks’ Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson, and “Hangman” Adam Page) caused the AEW All Out brawl. Punk and Ace Steel got into a backstage brawl with Omega and The Young Bucks after he ripped several wrestlers, including all of the Elite members, at the post-event press conference.
It resulted in NDAs being signed and everyone suspended. A year later, Punk was released by AEW last August due to the Jack Perry incident at All In. Despite the negatives, Punk had memorable matches and made friends.
Friends such as Darby Allin and Brody King, who he got to reunite with sometime this month, as seen in this photo that he posted on his Instagram:
