In

The
Young
Bucks
–
Matt
and
Nick
Jackson
alongside
Kenny
Omega
were
also
forced
to
vacate
the
AEW
World
Trios
Championship.
All
these
champions
won
their
belts
at
AEW
All
Out
2022
but
the
aftermath
instances
led
to
these
tough
decisions
made
by
the
company.

For
those
who
don’t
know,
AEW
World
Champion
CM
Punk
took
jabs
at
some
of
his
colleagues
from
the
AEW
locker
room
at
the
All
Out
media
scrum
and
that
resulted
in
a
fight,
backstage.

Punk
reportedly
threw
punches
at
Young
Bucks
while
AEW
Producer
cum
his
friend
Ace
Steel
bit
Kenny
Omega
and
pulled
his
hair.
Nick
Jackson
was
also
hit
in
the
eye
with
a
chair.

While
nothing
regarding
them
was
mentioned
during
Dynamite,
Sports
Illustrated
reports
that
everyone
involved
in
this
fight
has
been
suspended.
The
list
goes

follows:

–
Kenny
Omega

–
Matt
Jackson

–
Nick
Jackson

–
Pat
Buck

–
Christopher
Daniels

–
Michael
Nakazawa

–
Brandon
Cutler

SI
also
reported
that
while
Punk
and
Steel
are
not
on
the
list
of
suspended
people,
they
are
likely
to
get
fired
from
the
company
by
the
end
of
the
day
or
at
least,
get
handed
suspensions.

Then
in
the
opening
match
of
Dynamite,
Death
Triangle
(AEW
All-Atlantic
Champion
Pac
and
Lucha
Brothers)
defeated
Orange
Cassidy
and
Best
Friends
to
win
the
AEW
World
Trios
Championship.
Pac
is
now
a
double
champion
in
AEW
with
this
win
as
he
also
holds
the
All-Atlantic
Championship.
