"If you didn't act out, I wouldn't have punched you" is about as basic an example of abusive relationships as you can get.

Yes, Perry shouldn't look to escalate issues, but neither should Punk, who is 20+ years his senior.

I'm so fucking bored of this shit.

How does the old saying go? If you run into an asshole you ran into an asshole. If everyone you run into is an asshole you're CM Punk.

"Punk's created a drama-free locker room by banning a bunch of people" sure, the locker room might be drama-free, but now there's 10x as much drama in the company overall. good thing there's a brand split and nobody from dynamite ever has to wrestle with anyone from collision, like at all of these ppvs. no chance for drama when that happens.

Sounds about right.

...Punk, in the heat of the moment, was threatening to quit AEW over his frustration...

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
