The controversy became such a major talking point that all the involved wrestlers were removed from AEW programming. However, soon Punk’s injury was announced though there was no confirmation on his future in company.
Recently, it was reported that Punk is supposed to be in a meeting with Tony Khan and other AEW wrestlers to discuss his future in the company. As per Dave Meltzer, Punk could meet with Khan, Chris Jericho, The FTR, and a non-wrestling personality to discuss his future.
There is a meeting scheduled soon in AEW with Chris Jericho, C.M. Punk, Tony Khan, FTR and perhaps one other non-wrestler personality.

Where is The Elite? Why is this FTRs business? Get all parties involved and on the same page. This will only cause more issues.

Hopefully Jim Ross. There needs to be a sensible voice in the middle who doesn’t have dog in the fight either way who has experience in working out issues with talent.

Call me crazy but TK, Punk, & The Elite should be there. You know the people who were involved in the backstage brawl. Mox should be too since Punk talked trash on him. TK needs to stop being a best friend and start acting like a boss.
