The Elite mock CM Punk, reference backstage altercation on AEW Dynamite
The Elite mocked CM Punk while referencing their backstage altercation with the former AEW World Champion on Wednesday’s Dynamite in Chicago.
Kenny Omega used Punk’s Go To Sleep finishing move, his GTS taunt, and bit PAC on the arm during The Elite vs. Death Triangle best-of-seven series match on Dynamite, referencing Punk’s friend and former AEW producer Ace Steel reportedly biting Omega during a backstage altercation following the infamous media scrum at All Out in September.

The Elite entered to a mixed reaction from the Chicago crowd on Dynamite, and dueling “f— The Elite” and “f— CM Punk” chants rang out during their trios bout.
Death Triangle defeated The Elite in the contest to go up 2-0 in the best-of-seven series for the Trios titles.
