Report: Pending Legal Issues Following AEW Backstage Fight Between The Elite & CM Punk

The fallout from the backstage fight between The Elite and CM Punk could become even messier.

Speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer reported that no one directly involved in the incident is allowed to talk about what happened because of "pending legal issues."

"Nobody is allowed to talk or wants to talk. Well, they're not allowed to talk because there's pending legal issues based on what happened. It is not a work at all. You don't have legal issues, you don't have a police officer run in there...It's not a work, that's for sure," Meltzer said

A fight broke out between The Elite and CM Punk following the AEW World Champion's comments during the All Out media scrum. Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks confronted Punk in his locker room and a fight reportedly began because Punk started throwing punches. Ace Steel then got involved on the side of Punk due to his wife being nearby and he allegedly threw a chair at Nick Jackson and bit Kenny Omega.

Steel is expected to depart AEW following the incident but the fate of The Elite and CM Punk is unknown as of the time of writing.
