Following the infamous backstage fight between The Elite and CM Punk/Ace Steel at AEW All Out 2022, Lawyer Stephen P. New represented CM Punk and Ace Steel.
New, who is most famously known as Jim Cornette’s lawyer, confirmed that he represented both Punk and Steel.
Speaking on a recent edition of the “House of Kayfabe” podcast, New revealed that he was bound by client confidentiality and NDAs but did confirm that he worked with them after the fight.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On being approached by Punk two months after All Out 2022: “Punk already had a legal team. Ace Steel, not so much… And from representing some other folks, I had some information that hadn’t been previously known.”
On running into several AEW stars at the Dynamite where Punk called out Hangman Page in August 2022: “Interestingly, I almost asked Jack Perry at the Marriott that morning whether he needed a ride to the airport.”
