"He wouldn't last 5 minutes back in the 80s talking like that" - Wrestling legend rips into AEW star CM Punk for his infamous media scrum rant (Exclusive)

CM Punk's controversial comments at the post-All Out media scrum have apparently enraged the wrestling veteran, Magnum T.A.

The Second City Saint went off on a flaming tirade about his history with Colt Cabana. Speaking about his real-life heat with Hangman Adam Page, he blamed EVPs Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks for mishandling the situation and allegedly leaking information.

On this week's Sportskeeda UnSkripted, Magnum T.A. was asked to comment on the series of events regarding CM Punk. The wrestling legend said:

"I don't know if it's one of the greatest works of all time, or if it's a shoot. I can't, I can't figure it out. I mean, I hate to think somebody could be that big of a jerk, or egomaniac. And I have noticed some pretty big egomaniacs in my time. But, you know, I've got to think that some people are there that would straighten him out, if it wasn't some element of business in this thing somewhere... He wouldn't last 5 minutes back in the 80's talking like that." [18:58 - 19:43]

While the chances of it being a work seem slim at this point, fans will have to stay tuned to find out.

CM Punk is currently out of action in AEW

While the ripples of his comments are still felt in the All Elite scene, the Second City Saint is allegedly suspended from the promotion.

Furthermore, it has also been reported that CM Punk suffered an injury at the pay-per-view. He has already undergone surgery for the same and is expected to take a significant amount of time to recover.

Sportskeeda wishes CM Punk a speedy recovery!
