Wrestling Observer Live: WWE Payback recap, AEW All Out preview, CM Punk fired

Wrestling Observer Live: WWE Payback recap, AEW All Out preview, CM Punk fired

I am back with another Sunday edition of Wrestling Observer Live, talking all the latest wrestling news and once again, there is a lot of it.

In a surprise announcement Saturday afternoon, AEW announced they had terminated CM Punk’s contract with cause. I discuss why this happened, how Tony Khan and the company handled it, and what it means for both the future of AEW and Punk.

As if that wasn’t enough, WWE Payback was on Saturday. I break down the results and talk about some of the highlights from the show, including the disappointing main event between WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins and Shinsuke Nakamura.

I also discuss AEW Collision from Saturday and previews tonight’s All Out card and how important it is for AEW to have a great show to move past the Punk drama and build momentum for the future.

Premium YouTube subscribers can watch above while website subscribers can listen below.
