Jack Perry\'s AEW absence continues, but his time in NJPW is still going strong. Now, Tony Khan has commented on things.
It was previously reported that Tony Khan is very upset at Jack Perry. He is the reason why CM Punk was fired from AEW, and Khan apparently has nothing for him. Now, Tony Khan is speaking on Jungle Boy in NJPW, and he sees the great things he\'s doing.
Tony Khan Speaks on Jack Perry
Tony Khan expressed his views on Jack Perry\'s recent endeavors in NJPW during a recent interview with Comic Book Nation. Perry\'s absence from AEW dates back to his suspension following an altercation with CM Punk at All In last August. Then, the former Jurassic Express member made a surprise debut for NJPW at Battle in the Valley earlier this year, where he symbolically tore up his AEW contract.
In NJPW, Perry has adopted the moniker \"Scapegoat\" and participated in the New Japan Cup, progressing to the quarterfinals. It seems that fans are questioning whether this is a work or a shoot.
When questioned about the potential continuation of Perry\'s current persona upon his return to AEW, Khan remained ambiguous, praising Perry\'s achievements in NJPW and emphasizing his development within the promotion.
Well, I think you gotta stay tuned. Absolutely, Jack’s doing great things in New Japan. The New Japan Cup - he’s had a great run. He’s established himself over there. He feels he’s the \'Scapegoat.\' But he’s doing great things, and he’s wrestling for a great promotion, and it’s been great tracking Jack’s progress in New Japan. And I think he’s done excellent work there.
Jack Perry\'s AEW Suspension
CM Punk\'s departure from AEW occurred following his altercation with Perry and subsequent return to WWE in November. It is interesting that Punk has returned to WWE, gotten injured, and he\'s already making big headway on his return from injury; meanwhile, Jungle Boy Jack Perry is nowhere to be seen in AEW.
Jack Perry\'s AEW suspension reportedly ended months ago, but he was never brought back to television. Although some thought he might have made a good Devil, that role went to Adam Cole.
Now, we will have to see how this road might take Jack Perry back to AEW, but Tony Khan seems happy with that he\'s doing in NJPW.
