A fan made a major accusation against AEW. He claimed that they were treated unfairly at tonight's episode of Dynamite because they were wearing a CM Punk shirt.

The Straight Edge Superstar has been someone who has been on both the good and bad side of AEW. He had a great two-year run with the company until he was fired due to an incident with Jack Perry. Now he is signed with WWE, where he is arguably on one of the best runs of his career.

On X/Twitter, a fan claimed that he was verbally assaulted by the staff posted for tonight's episode of Dynamite. He claimed this all happened because he wore a CM Punk shirt. The fan brought up how they threatened to have him removed from the arena unless he turned the shirt over.

"I just got verbally assaulted by event staff at tonight’s taping of @AEW Dynamite for wearing a @CMPunk shirt. Screamed at me and threatened to throw me out unless I took it off and turned it inside out," the fan wrote.

While this has yet to be proven true, it may have serious ramifications for the promotion, as the fan did not do anything illegal. It remains to be seen if further information will emerge from this developing situation.
