AEW ENDS CM PUNK'S CONTRACT

All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has officially announced the termination of CM Punk's contract following a backstage brawl at All In last Sunday. The conflict involved Jack Perry and led to the suspension of both fighters. 

 Rumors hinted at the possibility of CM Punk leaving AEW and also reported that he had insulted Tony Khan in an earlier argument. After a multi-day investigation, AEW made the decision to terminate CM Punk's contract. 

 This news comes just ahead of this Saturday's Collision and this Sunday's All Out events, which will take place at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois, CM Punk's hometown.
