CM Punk, better known as Phil Brooks in real life, could be the latest All-Elite Wrestling (AEW) star to leave the ranks following another altercation with fellow wrestler Jack Perry.
The 34-year-old reportedly had a second altercation with Perry at AEW All-In recently.
The 26-year-old had just lost his pre-show match against HOOK, which cost him the FTW Championship when he crossed paths with Punk. The veteran wrestler was on his way out to face Samoa Joe on Sunday, August 27, but ended up getting into an alleged altercation, PWInsider Elite reported.
Punk still went on to compete against Joe. However, during the show, he and Perry were sent home from the Wembley Stadium.

Varying accounts on how the latest altercation between Punk and Perry had come out. That included claims that the 26-year-old Perry started the ruckus when he called out Punk during his match with HOOK.
As a result of their latest run-in, AEW top brass Tony Khan announced that they would investigate the incident.
But the latest report tied to the issue revealed that the promotion will be suspending both wrestlers - meaning both may not be around in the next pay-per-view, "All Out," set to take place on Sunday, September 3, Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer tweeted.
So far, Perry and Punk do not have a match booked for the upcoming pay-per-view set to be held at the United Center.
Also, it raises questions on whether the former WWE heavyweight champion will be sticking around in AEW. After the latest altercation with Perry, the 44-year-old allegedly threatened to quit the promotion over numerous frustrations with the locker room, PWTorch reported.
