Professional wrestling, with its blend of athleticism and theatricality, often blurs the lines between reality and fiction. However, at AEW All In, held at London’s iconic Wembley Stadium, the lines were not just blurred – they were crossed by both CM Punk and a colleague.
Before the main event of the pay-per-view, fans were treated to a pre-show match between HOOK and Jack Perry, battling it out for the FTW Championship.
During this bout, Perry made a rather pointed reference to a previous backstage disagreement he had with CM Punk. This disagreement centred around Perry’s desire to use real glass in a segment, a proposal that Punk was firmly against.
In a dramatic turn during his match against HOOK, Perry executed a move that saw HOOK slammed onto a car windscreen. Following this, Perry looked straight into the camera and declared, “Real glass. Go cry me a river.” While it remains unconfirmed if this was a direct jab at Punk, the tension was palpable.
