Tony Khan, qui a été longtemps discret sur les controverses entourant CM Punk depuis All Out, a abordé brièvement la question hier, lors du point de presse qui a suivi Full Gear.
Khan a soutenu que Punk n’a jamais demandé que Cabana soit retiré de la programmation de la AEW.
“No. No, he never asked for that. The first time it came up, I think you asked me on a scrum call and I wasn’t looking at you face to face, it was before Death Before Dishonor, I think. He never asked me that.”
Quant au récent match entre Cabana et Chris Jericho à Dynamite, Khan a justifié ce duel en mentionnant que Cabana est l’entraîneur de plusieurs lutteurs de Ring of Honor.
Plusieurs observateurs y voyaient un pied-de-nez à l’endroit de Punk.
“I’ve been using Colt Cabana both as a coach and a wrestler in Ring of Honor. I looked at the roster and he’s a very logical challenger because, not only has he held the Ring of Honor Tag Team Championship, but he’s also somebody who has been wrestling in the 2022 Ring of Honor, is undefeated, so I thought he would be a logical challenger for Chris. It’s also a good match.”
