The wrestling world is abuzz with anticipation and apprehension following AEW’s shocking announcement on Collision last week. AEW EVPs Matthew and Nicholas Jackson revealed plans to present backstage footage from the infamous Brawl In incident at All In 2023 during this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite.

This footage, set to be aired for the first time, will delve into the altercation between CM Punk and Jack Perry, which ultimately led to Punk’s departure from AEW. The decision to release this footage has sparked a flurry of speculation and discussion, with fans eagerly awaiting the revelation of long-held secrets.

Dave Meltzer shed light on the objective behind The Young Bucks narrating the footage during a segment on Wrestling Observer Radio. Meltzer suggested that the intention is to embarrass CM Punk and undermine his credibility, portraying him as a liar. However, Meltzer also noted the potential consequences of such actions, highlighting the risk of The Young Bucks being perceived as antagonists and undermining their desired role as heels.

“Young Bucks are narrating this. The idea is to embarrass CM Punk, to show that Punk is a liar and embarrass Punk. However, if they actually do this, the guys doing it are heels, and they don’t want to be babyfaces. When Jack Perry comes in, he’s not supposed to be as a babyface.”
