Bryan Danielson confirmed that he was part of AEW’s disciplinary committee, which recommended that the company cease ties with CM Punk.
Fightful Select reported earlier this week was Danielson was part of the committee which came after Danielson had posted a cryptic statement following CM Punk’s return to AEW.
My dad always told me, “The right thing is often the hardest thing to do.”
It won’t always make the most money.
It won’t always be the most popular.
But it’s still the right thing.#AEW ❤️— Bryan Danielson (@bryandanielson) November 27, 2023
Danielson was a guest on Maggie & Perloff and was asked if the report was true:
Yeah, I’m a part of the disciplinary committee. Clearly, what happened has happened. I’m somebody who, I like CM Punk, I think he brought a lot to AEW while he was there. There is not a lot I can say about it, or that I want to say about it about. I am part of it. It’s really funny, you know how the internet is. Some people say I was the head of the disciplinary committee. There were more than three people involved in this decision, but most of them were all lawyers. To say that I was the head, I don’t even have a college degree [laughs]. I’m not in there bossing people around. I am part of the disciplinary committee. (Transcribed by Jeremy Lambert at Fightful)
Danielson went on to state he wished Punk well in his return to WWE.
