The backstage fight following the AEW All Out media scrum is still the talk of the AEW world 10 days after the fact, with the effects still being felt on television.

The fight resulted in all involved parties, being CM Punk, Kenny Omega, Matt and Nick Jackson, Ace Steel, Christopher Daniels, Pat Buck, Michael Nakazawa and Brandon Cutler, being suspended from the company, and the AEW World and AEW Trios Championships being vacated.

It is not known how long each of the suspensions will last, as Punk and the Elite were recently removed from the poster for Full Gear in November, but one name is already back at work.

Per PWInsider, AEW producer Pat Buck has returned to work at tonight’s AEW Dynamite show in Albany, New York, seemingly confirming that his suspension is over.

Kenny Omega and Michael Nakazawa are currently in Japan so won’t be returning tonight, and the Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) and CM Punk – who also underwent surgery for a torn tricep last week – aren’t in Albany for tonight’s show either.

Christopher Daniels is also currently in Japan for AJPW dates. There’s no word on any of the other suspended parties as of yet.

There is an ongoing investigation into the incident that took place after All Out which includes interviews with witnesses such as AEW Chief Legal Officer Megha Parekh, and MJF.

UPDATE – According to F4WOnline, Brandon Cutler is also no longer suspended by AEW and has been cleared of wrongdoing for the backstage altercation at All Out.

As noted, it is currently unknown how long each of the suspensions will last, and that will likely remain the case until the investigation is finished.
