CM Punk recently told Joey Ryan to drop his lawsuits against ‘Speaking Out’ accusers, and now Ryan has hit back at Punk for his own legal issues with AEW star Colt Cabana.
Punk didn’t pay Cabana’s legal fees like Colt claimed he promised he would in their lawsuit with WWE doctor Chris Amann over Punk’s 2014 podcast interview with Cabana.
Ryan tweeted Punk, “I meant what I said more than you meant when you told your best friend that you’d cover his legal fees.”
Many hoped to see CM Punk recently for AEW Dynamite on TNT. Former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. recently discussed how TV executives don’t like AEW or WWE.
“If you knew how bad most TV execs did not want professional wrestling on their channels, you’d respect the hell out of WWE, NXT, & AEW for pulling off what they do each week,” Prinze wrote on Twitter. “They literally have every card in the deck stacked against them and they’re still growing the business.”
He added, “This is why cats like HHH doing interviews and Cody being on other TNT programming is so important. They help normalize the business because they just get it. They come off chill and solid. Hope they both continue to stay out in the public eye. It’s more important now than ever.”
