CM Punk on Supporting AJ Lee (Video), Backstage Note on the Bo Dallas Incident, Joey Styles
– As previously reported, Bo Dallas was arrested for public intoxication/drunkenness after a crazy incident at the airport in Dallas, Texas last weekend. He was then pulled from the WWE tour of Mexico. Full details on that incident are at this link. WWE still has not commented on the incident but Bo was not at this week’s TV tapings. Dave Meltzer mentioned on Wrestling Observer Live yesterday that Dallas is still with the company but has been punished. No word yet on what that punishment consisted of. Bo is scheduled to face Bin Wang in his WWE debut during the September 10th live event in Shanghai, China.
– Former WWE announcer and web employee Joey Styles will be doing commentary for CHIKARA at their King of Trios 2016 tournament in Easton, PA this weekend.

– TMZ Sports posted this video of CM Punk discussing his UFC debut against Mickey Gall at UFC 203. Punk jokes about busting out some pro wrestling moves during the fight and believes those who start off by booing him may be cheering him by the end. On supporting wife AJ Lee, he says she just finished her book and it was probably the hardest thing she’s done but he believes she can do anything she wants.
