CM Punk, Ace Steel and The Elite were involved in a brawl after All Out and that shocked fans and peers alike. Tony Khan responded by stripping CM Punk and The Elite of their titles and banning them from future televised appearances. CM Punk’s dog Larry was hurt during the brawl as well.
According to Wrestling Inc, CM Punk’s comments about Colt Cabana, Adam Page and The Elite weren’t the reason for the brawl but the whole thing escalated only after The Elite barged into Punk’s room and accidently hurt Larry in the process. Check out the details below.
From the perspective of Punk’s camp, the scrum itself — which became the talk of the wrestling world due to Punk’s comments on Colt Cabana, “Hangman” Adam Page, and The Elite — didn’t seem like a big deal, and only escalated once Punk’s locker room door was “kicked in” and accidentally hit Punk’s dog, Larry, in the face. At a pre-scheduled veterinarian appointment a few days later, Punk was informed that two of Larry’s teeth had been knocked loose and had to be removed.
It was previously reported that Kenny Omega tried to protect Larry from getting injured during the All Out brawl. AEW namedropped The Elite during Dynamite last week. The company also showed CM Punk as ROH Champion during the ROH World Championship legacy video package.
