The Blackpool Combat Club member concluded by saying that he was open to the idea of working with Punk even when he didn’t have to due to not having an official contract. He even went as far as to describe the situation as him ‘bending over backwards’ to help Tony Khan and AEW. (H/T SEScoops)

“The night in what’s-his-dicks CM Punk talking about, Minneapolis, is the night he came back, hopping on one foot after me and Jericho wrestled. Badass match by the way. We’re talking later about stuff. Bear in mind, and this is my point, I basically don’t work there. For all intents and purposes. I don’t even work here. Tony Khan is not my boss. I don’t even have to be in this room. I don’t have to do s***. So even me being in this room and offering and agreeing to a storyline that puts you over at the Pay-Per-View All Out 2022 if anything, I am bending over backwards for Tony and for this dude, and for the company. Because I didn’t have to do sh*t. If anything, I was bending over backwards. So that’s it. It’s not even controversial. I’m just telling you how it is.”

Basically Mox/Punk just disagreed on a storyline with even Mox not even having a contract signed to AEW. Which makes complete sense on so many levels on why people would be mad at each other. Granted Mox lost and did his job.

So Moxley taking shots at TK now? Mfs about to be conflicted as hell in here

Where are they? Cause I'm not seeing them

I’m listening rn and there was a sec where he sounded like Austin

“I hate to say that, and I don’t know if it’s because of the age of social media, s*** gets blown out of proportion, like one person posts a drunk tweet and all of a sudden it’s all everyone wants to talk about...let me be clear. The vast majority of people don’t cause any problems there. But they’re getting sucked down into this s*** like everyone else. "

he'll be there for the next 5 years at least jsyk

Bro said he don’t gotta do s*** for TK and that he ain’t his boss

Let one of y’all’s bosses see an interview where y’all say that and let me know how that would work out for you

But it was true, he didn't have to because he wasn't signed. Because he just finished rehab & wanted to ease into commitments. He was putting over how down he was for the place even though he didn't have to be. Tony respected that, it's not like Mox stiffed him on coming back. He ended up resigning for 5

He said that because at the time he wasn’t under contract lmao

Not really a shot

As I said before these podcasts and dirt sheet writers are making things worse. In my opinion, Mox/Punk situation is loads different than a fight, of course we don’t know these guys but I can’t see why these two can’t brush this s*** to the side and move on. Politics has always been in wrestling and always will.

Still let me know how that would work out for you lol

Yeah a boss of any company ain’t letting that slide brother lol

TK putting the top title on someone without a contract is f***ing insane tbh

I wouldn’t be working for someone without a contract

Exactly. Shows how dumb Moxley is lol

the content era making mountains out of molehills

From Punks perspective he lost to a guy that could have refused and walked out tomorrow.

Overall stupid move by TK.

Mox would have been a big time a****** if he tried anything. That s*** wasn't happening anyway, he still resents WWE & was coming out of the most vulnerable period of his life

Regardless, it’s an idiotic move.

Bro in here trying to justify everything lol

Dumb move on both sides. Simple as that

That being said Jon saying he doesn't wanna get dragged into it.......but goes on his wife's podcast & gets everyone in a tizzy.....nigga should have just said nothing lol

TK probably went to Mox with some “for the love of the sport” s***

Would’ve been a safer bet to put the belt on Jericho

Although while it probably would’ve sucked, he’s a name that can draw

Honestly, good for him. We need more people to step up and say s*** instead of silly high school he said/she said bullshit.

It’s been what 7 months since then? Yet nobody really coming forward and saying anything.

We probably would of moved past this many months ago if more people did that

The he said/she said s*** has only been put out there from the dirtsheet writers lmao

Wrestlers ain’t been saying s*** about the situation really other than it sucks it happened or whatever lol
