Dax Harwood has opened up about CM Punk.
CM Punk has constantly been in the news since even before his exit from All Elite Wrestling. From the ‘Brawl Out’ situation, to the lead up to AEW Double or Nothing where CM Punk and Adam Page traded jabs on the microphone which was stemming from real-life heat. Now, Speaking on his FTR podcast, Harwood revealed the conversation he had with CM Punk following the Hangman Adam Page promo segment.
After the promo segment, I went to Punk and I said, ‘that was really good, that was a great segment.’ They got the fans to react. It’s hard sometimes to get the fans to react to a babyface-babyface match. I thought it was a great segment. He was like, ‘Ahhh, I’m kind of feeling a certain way about it.’ I had no inkling that anything went wrong or went sideways or anything like that,

When asked if he thought Adam Page seemed like the type of guy to take that kind of shot in a promo, Dax said this,
To be honest, I don’t really know Adam Page very well, we worked together once on the North Carolina Indies. I don’t know him very well, but I don’t think so and I didn’t think so. I didn’t have that notion of him. He’s a family man, he loves his wife, he just had a newborn, he’s always pleasant and polite to me. We always talked and get along. Even after the disagreements we’ve had with the Young Bucks, he and I have always talked and got along great.

Page and Punk ended up having the match but foot injury caused Punk to take some time off afterwards. At the AEW All Out press conference, CM Punk said that Hangman threatened the first-ever million-dollar gate in AEW, referencing their match.
