Report: CM Punk's Dog Larry Injured In AEW All Out Brawl

A much-loved pet may have been injured in the AEW All Out backstage fight between CM Punk, Ace Steel, Kenny Omega, and The Young Bucks.

As previously reported, the backstage brawl broke out after CM Punk's post-All Out media scrum in which he took shots at The Elite, Colt Cabana, and Hangman Page. Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks confronted CM Punk in his locker room following the scrum and a brawl occurred, during which Ace Steel allegedly bit Kenny Omega and threw a chair that rocked Nick Jackson. 

In an update, CM Punk's side have claimed to Wrestling Inc. that Punk's dog Larry was accidentally hit after the then-AEW World Champion's locker room door was "kicked in". It was then revealed during an appointment at the vet a few days later that two of Larry's teeth were knocked loose and had to be removed. 

After the door was allegedly "kicked in", Punk felt threatened, according to Wrestling Inc, and he reacted in a way that was deemed to be legal. There is currently no legal action against Punk stemming from the All Out brawl. 

The Elite's camp told Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer that Larry being hurt in the backstage fight is a lie.

Furthermore, Punk's camp reportedly did not view his comments from the All Out media scrum as a big deal and they believe the situation only escalated after his locker room door was "kicked in." Punk was asked to stay quiet following the incident by AEW and he agreed to do so. 

Past reports from Fightful Select noted that those close to CM Punk claimed The Young Bucks "kicked the door down" but they softened on that claim soon after, instead alleging that Matt and Nick Jackson "could have kicked, shouldered or otherwise forced their way in."

All five men were suspended following the All Out backstage fight. The Elite look set to make their returns to AEW TV in the coming weeks, though, while Ace Steel has been released. CM Punk is reportedly in talks with the promotion over a contract buyout.
