"I could f*king unload on a lot of f*king people" - Top AEW star breaks silence on CM Punk's Instagram story
CM Punk has seemingly burnt more bridges with AEW after he posted a now-deleted Instagram Story. Punk notably called out both Dave Meltzer and Chris Jericho and made claims against Jon Moxley, which The Purveyor of Violence has now addressed.
Punk's jabs at Jericho and Meltzer went deeper, as he called The Ocho a "liar and stooge" while alleging that the Wrestling Observer journalist had been lying about him as well. CM Punk additionally claimed that Jon Moxley was responsible for forcing him to compete before his broken foot was completely healed.
During his latest appearance on The Sessions, Moxley opted not to directly respond to CM Punk's story, but instead dismissed the drama and stated that he wouldn't take part in it.
"No. ‘Cause nothing has unfolded. It’s f**king annoying. Just ‘cause somebody says some stupid s**t on social media, like that’s not news but it ends up being a thing. I don’t wanna get dragged into this dumb s**t. I could f**king unload on a lot of f**king people right now, and when I start getting dragged into this s**t it tempts me to do that, but I’m not gonna f**king sink to that level." (05:05 onward).

During the same interview, Jon Moxley surprisingly revealed that he was a free agent during his feud with CM Punk, and even joked that he could have walked into SummerSlam with the AEW Championship if he wanted to.
