WOR: There’s skepticism amongst the AEW locker room about Tony Khan’s comments on CM Punk & Colt Cabana
Meltzer: “The whole Cabana thing, I keep getting stuff from talents in AEW about this.
“Ever since Saturday I’ve gotten a lot and, put it this way, there is a lot of talent that is very convinced of one thing.
Obviously CM Punk is – and he’s always been – very adamant that he had nothing to do with it.
Tony said that (Punk) had nothing to do with it, this was back in August, so that story is not going to change publicly one way or the other.
But I’m just saying that the skepticism, and it’s vehement from a lot of people, as far as the skepticism of that story.
So it’s not like that thing has been settled in the eyes of, I can’t say all the talent, but a lot of the talent.
Even today I just got something that was just like, ‘Can’t you just see? Isn’t it obvious?’.
It’s not like they’re speculating, they believe that they know the story.
That’s basically that, I’m sure that one will never go away.”
Regarding Punk’s future in AEW and how he’s viewed in the locker room, Meltzer had this to say:
“There’s people who… it’s not like everyone in that dressing room is totally on that side, but there’s a lot of people who are very vehement on why he should not be allowed back”
