Dax Harwood has recently spoken about his experience with CM Punk after Punk’s locker room fight with The Elite at AEW All Out. In a podcast episode of “FTR With Dax Harwood,” Harwood revealed that he received a FaceTime call from Punk after the incident.
According to Harwood, he had been at a party in the locker room following the pay-per-view event, but eventually decided to head back to his hotel room. It was there that he received an unexpected call from Punk, who had just won the AEW Championship but had also been involved in a backstage brawl with The Elite and his trainer Ace Steel. Punk wanted to let Harwood know what had happened before he heard about it from anyone else.
Harwood expressed his concern for Punk and offered to help in any way he could, to which Punk responded that everything was fine and the situation had died down. Harwood also commented on the media coverage of the incident, saying that he believed only a portion of the story had been reported and that some details may have been exaggerated. He added that he has spoken to people he trusts and knows that some of what has been reported is true.
The fight between Punk and The Elite at AEW All Out was a surprising turn of events, with Punk’s explosive comments during the post-show media scrum being followed by a backstage brawl. Punk’s sudden appearance at AEW All Out and subsequent championship win were already major talking points, and the locker room fight only added to the drama. It remains to be seen how this incident will impact Punk’s career with AEW, but it has certainly garnered a lot of attention and speculation.
