Possible Reason Why AEW Fired Ace Steel
BY SACNILK
Chicago, 8 September - AEW has fired Ace Steel for the second time. ## Ace Steel's termination marks the second release this week, following CM Punk's departure from AEW on September 2nd. While AEW didn't officially confirm Ace Steel's release, PWInsider reported his departure from WWE. ## CM Punk's release from AEW on September 2nd was accompanied by an official statement from the organization. This decision came after an altercation between CM Punk and Jack Perry backstage, stemming from comments made by Perry during his earlier match on the show. Perry's comments were in reference to Punk denying him the use of real glass in his segments on Collision. ## AEW made the announcement of CM Punk's release on X (formerly Twitter), and Tony Khan also addressed it at the beginning of that night's Collision episode. In contrast, Ace Steel's release from WWE lacked an official reason. ## There are potential reasons behind Ace Steel's release, though they are speculative. Steel was involved in the All Out Brawl, featuring CM Punk and The Elite. During the brawl, Steel was reportedly guilty of biting Kenny Omega's arm, which led to his suspension along with Punk, Omega, and The Young Bucks. ## Subsequently, Steel, CM Punk, and The Elite returned to the company. Reportedly, Steel was brought back to work as a producer at the request of CM Punk, which stirred tension among some in the locker room. ## An agreement was reached for Steel to work remotely to avoid further issues, as he was brought back solely at CM Punk's request. With Steel's release from the company, it's possible that AEW sought to maintain a harmonious locker room environment and avoid disruptions. This could be the underlying reason behind Tony Khan's decision to release Ace Steel. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...
