The 67-year-old said, “To see why not does he want to get in the mud with this cat who I don’t trust him, I wouldn’t trust him. I’m gonna sit down and try to have a meeting of a mind with a guy who has recently as two weeks ago decided to bury me publicly, I wouldn’t waste my time.”

He added, “I wouldn’t spend five minutes of my day sitting down next to who as two weeks ago decided to do the same thing that created this mess in the first place all while saying I’m kind of interested in coming back. That’s not story, that’s just childish, immature, and unprofessional actions by a guy who’s made a career out of it in Phil Brooks. So I’m Chris Jericho I wouldn’t go near it.”

It seems Bischoff wants the first-ever AEW World Champion to reconsider the meeting with Punk.
