Tony Schiavone addresses CM Punk’s comments.

AEW terminated CM Punk’s contracts in September 2023 after he was involved in a backstage confrontation with Jack Perry at AEW All In, which stemmed from a previous incident with Perry. Punk recently shared his side of the story in an interview with Ariel Helwani and brought Schiavone up as he recalled the initial incident with Perry, as Punk noted that Schiavone informed him about Perry wanting to use real glass for a spot.

Speaking on What Happened When, co-host Conrad Thompson brought up Punk’s comments and noted that he wanted to give Schiavone the chance to comment.

“Did he have a couple of stories about me? Jungle Boy, right? [Thompson notes that Punk brought Schiavone up but not in a negative way.] You know what? I really don’t give a shit about it. I’m not gonna get into this. I know what he said, and let him continue to talk if he wants. That’s all I got. Look, okay, I don’t give a shit. That’s all I can say. I can’t get into that. It would be stupid for me to get into that. I had no idea what he said, with the exception of someone told me, ‘Oh, he brought up your name, and here’s what he said.’ I went, ‘So what?’ So fucking what? [Thompson says Punk was not critical of him] I know. That’s why I’m saying, ‘So what?’ If he was critical of me, people would say, ‘Oh, Schiavone on his podcast [wanted to] defend himself.’ I have nothing to defend. Let’s move on,” Schiavone said.
