While the bulk of the talk this weekend was expected to revolve around WWE WrestleMania XL, AEW has very much kept themselves in the spotlight with the news that they'll be showing footage of the backstage altercation between CM Punk and Jack Perry from All In last year.

Last night's AEW Collision saw a graphic announcing how the Young Bucks will be showing and discussing this footage on next week's Dynamite. And for those thinking this is merely a ruse, that apparently is not the case.

Per Fightful Select, those in the company who the outlet has spoken to are under the impression that, yes, Dynamite will be airing the genuine footage from All In. Specifically, it was stated by various people that AEW would not falsely promote something like that. For those wondering about any legal repercussions, there appears to be no issues on that front.

Of course, the Young Bucks are now due to face FTR - extremely close friends of CM Punk - at AEW Dynasty for the vacant AEW Tag Team Titles later this month. One veteran noted to Fightful how they'd be extremely surprised if Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler weren't given a heads-up on this situation ahead of time, particularly due to how much Tony Khan respects FTR.

At this stage, this footage has not been made widely available internally within AEW, and nobody Fightful reached out to has seen the recording of Punk and Perry's altercation; an altercation that led to the firing of CM Punk and the removal from AEW programming of Jack Perry.
