Well, AEW advertised the footage of CM Punk and Jack Perry's All In altercation for this week's AEW Dynamite, and AEW certainly delivered on what they'd promoted. Whether that was advantageous to the company or not, that's another topic entirely.

As promised, the Young Bucks built up to the footage, noting how the backstage chaos of that incident impacted their performance against FTR later that night at Wembley Stadium, where the Jacksons came up short in challenging for Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler's AEW Tag Team Titles.

The footage itself was largely what CM Punk described on Ariel Helwani's MMA Hour last week, with the clip featuring zero audio and lasting about a minute.

Jack Perry and Hook were backstage after their Zero-Hour match, CM Punk and Samoa Joe were there ahead of going out for their PPV opener, and Perry and Punk started talking in close proximity. Eventually, Punk pushes Perry and then puts him in a front facelock, which is broken up by a mixture of Samoa Joe, Chris Hero, and Jerry Lynn, with Hook and Sonjay Dutt others on the scene. Punk and Perry are separated, and the Chicagoan can be seen turning his attention to Tony Khan, before the Straight-Edge Superstar is walked away by Malakai Black and a shocked Hero.

And that was that.

As for the footage, various X posts featuring the clip have been taken down:

Dynamite then switched back to the Young Bucks, who again reiterated how the stress of this situation threw them off their game for the All In match against FTR, and they then called FTR "pricks" for offering a handshake at the end of that contest.

From there, Dynamite cut back to the announce team of Excalibur, Taz, and Tony Schiavone, with poor Schiavone looking like he was having PTSD flashbacks to the dark final days of WCW. That would bring FTR out for an in-ring promo, with Cash questioning what exactly the Young Bucks were looking to achieve by showing this footage and for bringing something up from eight months ago.

Interstingly, the airing of this footage started up a modest "CM Punk!" chat in the Charleston Coliseum, and there were those same chants later in the night when the Young Bucks came out to the ring to put a beating on PAC and eventually FTR.
