AEW aired footage of the physical altercation that led to CM Punk's firing from the promotion in 2023 on Wednesday ... showing the wrestling superstar shove and seemingly choke Jack Perry after a heated exchange.
The video was part of the AEW Dynamite event this week as part of the Young Bucks' current storyline against tag-team FTR ... with YB claiming the incident was possibly orchestrated by their opponents --- blurring the lines between a real backstage incident with their ongoing TV feud.
The clip shows Punk approach Perry backstage at the All-In event in London back in September .
