Tony Khan asked if the terms of CM Punk’s termination from AEW include a non-compete clause

While speaking to media after the 2023 AEW All Out PPV event, AEW President Tony Khan was asked if the terms of CM Punk’s termination from AEW include a non-compete clause…

“I don’t want to discuss the terms of the separation in that sense. I very much want to thank CM Punk, Phil, for everything he did in AEW as a wrestler. I don’t think it was an easy decision for anybody on the discipline committee or the outside counsel or for me to do something like that. I do think it was the right move. As far as what’s going to happen in the future, I can’t speak to that. I’m not the attorneys who interpret all that language.” (quote courtesy of Jeremy Lambert)
