We now know more about the Punk – Nemeth confrontation.
Back in June, CM Punk would corner Ryan Nemeth backstage at an AEW Dynamite taping and would berate the young talent. Punk would follow Nemeth into the hallway, seemingly unflinching in his anger with Nemeth for a tweet he sent out that dissed punk.
Now, it seems there may be more to that story. Nemeth was sent home from an AEW Collision taping over the weekend, and now it seems like it may be because Nemeth simply didn’t say hello to Punk.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter now reports new comments from sources, with one stating that Punk was “ranting like a mad man”.
The version was, this was aggressive. One person called it ranting like a mad man and another, defending Punk, told us at the time that Punk was handling business like a man and that all was taken care of and things were settled. While it was clear from many that tensions persisted, it wasn’t covered as a big thing partially because it was kept quiet and that any attention, no matter how the incident started, was going to end up negative for Nemeth.
WON
At the same Collision taping, Punk ended up firing shots off at Hangman Adam Page after the show but would later apologize to Hangman.
We will have to wait and see if Nemeth will be able to work out his issues with Punk in the future.
