During his podcast, veteran wrestling personality Jim Cornette commented on CM Punk being fired from AEW and mentioned AEW’s Chief Legal Officer Megha Parekh…

“Well, so Tony [Khan] finally made a decision, you think? I thought whoever really calls the shots over there is the one that would make a decision this big (…) I’m thinking because Megha Parekh [is] over there. She’s been involved in this since the start because she was one of the people that burst into his [CM Punk] locker room along with the buckaroos and their ilk and started the whole goddamn deal a year ago. And we know that Megha is close to the Bucks, not as close as she is to some of the boys.”

“She’s been the one that was screwing up contracts because she’s in charge of [the] AEW legal [team], trying to throw stumbling blocks in a way of bringing Punk back with messing around with Ace Steel’s employment and etc. She’s the one who has been trying to collect evidence for her friends, the buckaroos, all along. And she’s the one who I’m sure had a big hand [in] whatever other appendage she wanted to put in, in wording this so that a jury, when the lawsuit eventually happens, we’ll go, ‘Oh my God. Tony was so scared. Tony was so scared the night that he saw his first fight. It was traumatizing for the boy.'” (quotes courtesy of Sportskeeda.com)

AEW’s Christopher Daniels wrote the following on Twitter/X in regards to comments made about Parekh…

“I’ve kept my mouth shut about a lot of things in this past year, but the unsubstantiated garbage I’ve read in the past day about AEW’s chief legal officer is an embarrassment to anyone spouting it. Absolutely the last person who should be maligned in this situation.”
