Ever since his tirade at the September 4th All Out media scrum, which resulted in a backstage brawl, Punk’s reputation within AEW has seemingly been tarnished. The locker room expressed their objections about working with the former WWE Superstar, with Chris Jericho allegedly labeling him a “cancer.”
However, on the first episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling’s One on One with Teddy Long and Mac Davis, Long revealed that Punk is a nice guy and that he spoke to him after the controversial rant.
The former WWE SmackDown General Manager reiterated that The Second City Saint doesn’t hesitate to tell it straight up. He further added that while other wrestlers are afraid to speak up, the latter is fearless in unleashing his thoughts, even if it costs him his career.
