AEW brought their April 10 episode of Dynamite to Charleston, West Virginia. Fans were chanting “CM Punk” by the end of the night at the Young Bucks in response to that footage.
Fan Response
The company delivered on their promise to reveal security footage from Punk and Jack Perry’s backstage brawl at All In. The silent video went viral, with many people providing their own soundtracks for the silent clip.
A number of fans commented on how this footage didn’t make the company look good in any way. Referee Paul Turner did receive some props for how he stepped in to break up the Punk and Perry fight.
Regarding the CM Punk/All In footage:
Can we talk about how much of a BADASS Paul Turner is?!
That man straight up dove into the middle of it without a thought, trying to break it up and separate everyone.
That man is working, even when he's not. That was amazing.…
