Those suspended for their roles in All Elite Wrestling's now-infamous post-All Out 2022 brawl aren't aware of how long they will be out of action for.

The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Michael Nakazawa, Pat Buck, Christopher Daniels, and Brandon Cutler were all suspended by the promotion following its 4 September pay-per-view. Meanwhile, CM Punk and Ace Steel's AEW futures are also hanging in the balance.

Fightful Select reports that the suspended parties aren't likely to know how long they'll be away until the ongoing third-party investigation into the brawl has been concluded and potential legal ramifications have come to light.

While accounts of what happened after All Out vary from source to source, it is universally agreed that a fight broke out following Punk's incendiary comments on AEW's Executive Vice Presidents, 'Hangman' Adam Page, and Colt Cabana during the post-show press scrum. Punk is understood to have thrown at least one punch at Matt Jackson, while Steel reportedly bit Omega and pulled his hair. Buck, Daniels, Cutler, and Nakazawa were in the vicinity at the time.

Punk and The Elite were recently pulled from upcoming AEW advertisements, including for Full Gear 2022.
