CM Punk And Jack Perry Got Into It Over Perry Wanting To Use Real Glass In Segment Early In Collision’s Run

CM Punk and Jack Perry got into it over the younger star’s desire to use real glass in segment instead of the safer options.

Punk has been involved in quite a bit of drama over the last few days, as several reports have come in, none of which paint Punk in a positive light. Punk has been reported to have cornered and berated Ryan Nemeth at an AEW Dynamite taping back in June, but has also been reported to have apologized to Hangman Page for the shots he took after AEW Collision, claiming to have been “rocked” when he made the comments.

Now, Fightful Select reports that Punk has also gotten into it with Jack Perry backstage early on in the run of AEW Collision due to Perry wanting to use real glass in a segment.

Towards the start of Punk’s AEW Collision run, during the Canada tapings, Jungle Boy Jack Perry was brought to Collision to film a segment, and the two had words about the plans that Perry was supposedly pushing. According to those on the side of Punk, Perry wanted to use real glass for a backstage segment. Punk was of the belief that he did this so he didn’t need to come to work the next week, which he sees as a big problem in the company. Per Punk’s side of things, Perry was going against production, doctors and Tony Schiavone advising him not to do it and them telling him that smashing real glass was a safety hazard, and Perry wasn’t happy with that. Shortly after, there were guidelines put in place and forwarded to talent of things that required clearance. Punk’s claim was that he was asked to step in and calmly said that they don’t do that on Saturdays (for Collision) and if he doesn’t like it, he could stay on Wednesdays. Word of the situation had made its way around the locker room, and was referred to as an argument. Punk’s claim was that Perry was throwing a temper tantrum over the spot not being cleared and people trying to prevent it.

We will have to wait and see what else will come of of this incident, but with Perry working Dynamite and Punk working Collision, the two have not had the opportunity to cross paths since.
