Eddie Kingston recently spoke with The New York Post to promote tonight’s AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door II pay-per-view event, where he commented on a wide range of topics, including the reports that things have not improved between CM Punk and some people in AEW.
The issues are due to Punk’s actions at All Out 2022 and what he said in his recent ESPN interview and Collision promo.
One top AEW wrestler reportedly said they’re fearful of the ticking time bomb regarding the issues leading to another incident.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
Q: What did you think of how CM Punk handled his comeback and how he jumped into things on Collision this week?
A: “He did it his way and that’s the way wanted to do it. I expected it. I knew it was happening, knowing Punk and what he thought was right for him. That’s it. I see the reports. I see the clickbait on YouTube. But the locker room is not divided, not the people I hang out with. Punk’s gonna do what Punk does and if whatever Punk does helps this company, no one can say anything.”
Q: So there hasn’t been this feeling in the locker room that things that he’s said have bothered at least a large portion of it?
A: “Not me, man. Not my crew of people I hang out with. Maybe there’s that one percent that are bothered but the people I chill with, they’re good. They don’t care.”
