Ric Flair Explains Why He Took Triple H’s Side In CM Punk Dispute

During the post-AEW All Out media scrum, CM Punk went ballistic on Colt Cabana, Hangman Page, Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks. This has now become the biggest topic of discussion for the past couple of days.

It was reported that Omega and the Bucks threatened to leave AEW over Punk’s scathing remarks and the backstage brawl that took place afterwards. Ringside News exclusively reported that the AEW locker room is divided now.

While speaking on his To Be The Man podcast, Ric Flair was asked by Conrad Thompson if he spent a lot of time with CM Punk while they were in WWE. Flair then explained why he took Triple H’s side in a dispute with CM Punk.

“No, he [CM Punk] only just barely got to say hi. That funny? I never understood it, I was long gone when all the bad blood seemed to appear between him and Hunter after that and the lawsuit with the doctor and all that. I wasn’t aware of it, I just saw, of course, like everybody else on social media. I always sided with Hunter because I didn’t know the other guy.”
