The story surrounding the CM Punk/Jack Perry incident has dominated wrestling news this week, and a new report in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter implies that Punk lunged towards Tony Khan during the incident:
“Another version, and this would be a neutral source who was not a wrestler but was there and witnessed it and his version was that right after Perry came to the back, Punk went nose-to-nose with him aggressively and asked him if he had a problem. That person said Perry said he was just looking to get heat as a heel. Punk shoved him hard, Perry got in his face and in that version Punk sucker punched him and went for a choke. People immediately broke it up and Khan was yelling at Punk to let him go. That person said that once they were separated, Punk lunged in Khan’s direction but a number of people got in his way while Punk was yelling “I Quit.” Monitors were knocked down during all this. Joe was very upset and went to calm Punk down.”
Obviously, this should be taken with a grain of salt, and the only people able to confirm such a report are Punk, Perry or Khan.
