The wrestling world recently reacted to the reported backstage heat between AEW star CM Punk and former WWE Superstar Bobby Fish.

Punk and Fish faced each other on the October 27, 2021, edition of Dynamite, where The Second City Saint picked up the victory via pinfall. It was reported that the two were not on good terms following their match on the Wednesday night show. The latter was seemingly unhappy with CM Punk's attitude after the bout.

Another report added that Punk was infuriated with Fish for trying to kick out of the Go To Sleep finisher after the three count. The two former WWE Superstars allegedly stopped interacting following the incident.

AEW fans soon took to Twitter to express their views on the situation, and below are the reactions on the social media site to the same:

Bobby Fish recently had harsh words for former AEW World Champion CM Punk.

During his interview with NBC Sports, Fish took multiple shots at The Second City Saint, especially his martial arts skills.

Bobby Fish said CM Punk should be grateful that he laid his shoulders down for him on national television:

"You're asking me to go out and sell, put over, your bunk-a** martial arts," Fish said. "Phil [Punk's real name], after the match, was a c***, and frankly, as a martial artist, I laid my shoulders down for you, like you should be grateful that I did, because on national TV, if I decided that if I wanted to Haku your a**, I could've, because you're that little bit of a threat in my world. I'm not Jon Jones or Anderson Silva, but I've been doing martial arts long enough to where I can hold you like a wet nap Phil Brooks."

Punk has recently been embroiled in controversies following his outburst in the post-All Out media scrum. He was stripped of his AEW World Championship after the backstage brawl with The Elite and is reportedly currently out of action with an injury.

It will be interesting to see whether CM Punk responds to Bobby Fish in the coming weeks.
