There are more details coming out on the backstage fight that occurred after AEW All Out on Sunday night. These details were provided to Fightful Select from sources close to CM Punk and Ace Steel.
After Punk addressed the media at the post-All Out scrum, The Young Bucks allegedly went to Punk’s locker room and after there was no answer from Punk, they “kicked the door down.” Fightful adds that Kenny Omega did not appear to be as upset as was initially reported.
Ace Steel’s wife was said to be in the room and The Bucks storming in is what set him off. There were previous reports that stated that she was there watching CM Punk’s dog Larry. The fight reportedly lasted several minutes and a chair that was thrown hit Nick Jackson’s eye.
There was a rumor going around today that Punk suffered a torn triceps. Actually, as reported on Wrestling Observer Radio, the belief is that the injury happened during the match with Jon Moxley at All Out.
As noted earlier, there have been several suspensions handed out but none of the names have been confirmed by AEW. Brian Last’s “The Wrestling News” first reported earlier today that the people who were involved in the fight were suspended. Dave Meltzer noted that Ace Steel and Pat Buck, among others, would not be at Dynamite. Chris Jericho and Jon Moxley were originally not scheduled to be at Dynamite in Buffalo but those plans have changed and they will be there to boost the star power of the show due to suspensions.
