They send him to Atlanta for a meeting then they cancel it. Then they fly him across the fug in England. And they stick him at the airport with no transportation. Then he gets lost on the goddamn subway.
Furthermore, Cornette took issue with how AEW allowed Jack Perry to air his grievances with Punk live on the air. Cornette believed that this public confrontation was unprofessional and disrespectful to Punk:
Then he goes to the biggest show of all time and he has to sit there and watch some f*cking curly-headed f*cking entitled little prick. mouth off on him on television while he’s standing there. What do you think he was gonna do?
Cornette believes that Punk was justified in his actions to get physical with Perry and Tony Khan following these events, Cornette stated:
I’m surprised he didn’t football kick Tony in the f*cking pussy.
