#2 CM Punk was reportedly responsible for QT Marshall being removed from AEW Collision

QT Marshall is set to part ways with AEW after being with the company since its inception. The 38-year-old is seemingly close to Cody Rhodes, and many believe he could eventually reunite with The American Nightmare in WWE.

WrestlePurists recently reported that Punk wasn't a fan of Marshall's 'QTV' segments and asked Tony Khan to remove him from AEW Collision.

''According to people in AEW, CM Punk didn’t want QT Marshall to be a part of Collision and didn’t see QTV as a productive part of Powerhouse Hobbs’ presentation.''

QT Marshall's 'QTV' angle involving Powerhouse Hobbs was abruptly removed from television. Tony Khan is said to have shouldered the responsibility for this decision, and there seemed to be a lack of clear communication regarding the plan.
