A potential reason has been revealed as to why former WWE star Ace Steel went berserk during CM Punk's backstage altercation with The Elite (The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega) following the AEW All Out media scrum.
The fiasco began after Punk fired inflammatory remarks towards The Elite, Hangman Page and Colt Cabana. Omega and the Young Bucks, who are Executive Vice Presidents in the company, were allegedly livid at the former WWE Champion's comments and immediately confronted him in the locker room.
A reported melee then ensued with Punk allegedly throwing punches at Matt Jackson. Ace Steel quickly joined the fray and reportedly bit Omega and threw a chair that resulted in Nick Jackson having a "black eye."
