Jim Ross has shared what he would have done following the controversy backstage at AEW All Out 2022 if he was the promotion’s Head of Talent Relations.

The fallout from the infamous September Pay-Per-View resulted in CM Punk, the Elite and others being suspended due to their roles in the backstage fight.

Speaking on his “Grilling JR” podcast, Ross, who spent years as WWE’s Head of Talent Relations, shared what he would have done. He said,

“My protocol would be to get all involved parties in a room and settle it, and quickly – as soon after it happened as you possibly could, and communicate, communicate, and that’s hard to do sometimes when guys have their feelings hurt or their anger or they feel like they have an issue.

“I’d say getting the crew together that’s involved in this atrocity is what I’d try to accomplish, and talk it out. Talk it out, and cooler heads should prevail, and communicate.”

It was reported last week that there have been no discussions between Punk and the Elite regarding Punk’s rumored return to AEW.

Punk is expected to return this June as part of the rumored AEW Saturday wrestling show.
