Pro wrestling veteran Kevin Sullivan made an appearance on his Taskmaster podcast to talk about a number of topics including CM Punk’s comments at the post-AEW All Out 2022 media scrum.
Sullivan said, “Obviously, this had been brewing for a long time. I know that everybody knows this is sports entertainment, but some things should be left in the back.”
Punk being let go from AEW following his backstage altercation with Jack Perry at AEW All In 2023:
Sullivan said, “What gave [Perry] the right to chest-bump [Punk], [he gets] suspended and Punk [gets] fired? Can you tell me what that was about? I think I got it. It is a group of people that outnumber Punk, and they probably went to [Khan] and said, ‘It’s either him or us.’”
Tony Khan’s “fearing for his life” comments:
Sullivan said, “How does that come across to the average wrestling fan? Would Vince McMahon say that?”
