But when you&#8217;ve watched that scrum, you&#8217;re looking at a very, very frustrated guy who had told people. That&#8217;s not the first time he heard all that. It&#8217;s not the first time lawyers were told all that. And I was just looking for something to be done and nothing got done. So, if you want something done right, you got to do it yourself. And I just didn&#8217;t approach it in the right manner, but tension was high. I was very, very pissed. I pretty much knew that I had just injured myself again. I was hurt, and I was disappointed. Yeah, it&#8217;s very easy for me to say I regret that and I handled it the wrong way, 100%.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CM Punk will make his return to AEW this Saturday night on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2023\/06\/07\/aew-collision-premiere-main-event-announced\/\">premiere of AEW Collision<\/a>.
