AEW Issues Ultimatum to CM Punk: Return to Work or Face Legal Consequences
The highly anticipated involvement of CM Punk in AEW’s Collision announcement failed to materialize, leaving fans disappointed. Due to this development, AEW is reportedly contemplating changing the debut episode’s location from Chicago to Daily’s Place. Unfortunately, this potential legal headache is not the only concern arising from the situation.
During a recent Twitter spaces discussion, Raj Giri revealed that AEW took decisive action with CM Punk by serving him a legal notice. The company apparently conveyed a clear message to Punk, stating that he must return to work or face the prospect of a lawsuit.
Giri shared the information, stating, “AEW sent a legal notice to Punk yesterday that he either has to comply or they’re gonna file a suit against him.”
Interestingly, AEW had rehired Ace Steel some time ago. Steel’s involvement became a point of contention with CM Punk, as AEW was willing to bring Steel back but prevented him from attending their television tapings. Initially, AEW denied rehiring Steel, but recent developments indicate otherwise.
Furthermore, AEW reportedly conveyed to CM Punk and Ace Steel that Punk would serve as a producer for Collision. However, the apparent change in this agreement has become another contentious issue.
The unfolding situation remains complex and raises numerous questions. It appears that Punk might be advocating for his friend, Ace Steel, while also facing the potential legal ramifications if he does not return to work.
As this situation continues to develop, it is evident that there is much to unpack. Fans eagerly await further updates and resolution in this ongoing saga.
