TMZ.com released a video Thursday of CM Punk backing WWE's decision to terminate A.W.'s contract after he cracked a "rape joke" on the July 30, 2012 episode of Raw.
"He got fired. Yeah. He made a rape joke. I don't think—I don't like to see anyone lose their job, but if anyone is justified in getting fired, ya know, making fun of rape... I don't think that's funny," Punk said outside Mr. Chows in Beverly Hills, California on Wednesday night.
A WWE spokesman claimed to TMZ.com last week that it wasn't just the "rape joke" that cost A.W. his job, but rather "because he continued to exhibit poor judgment by making offensive and inappropriate comments on live television and on social media."
A.W. responded to Punk's remarks via Twitter, writing, "I see @CMPunk has become a bit vocal in saying I should have been fired for an (Alleged) rape joke. Well then why wasn't Big Show fired?"
"He wasn't fired because he draws more money than I do. With @WWE it's not about Morals... It's about Money."
A.W. then posted multiple messages alluding that Punk is racist, based on Punk's cult-like savior character as the leader of the Straight Edge Society.
"This scene look familiar to anyone..?? Hey @CmPunk I know rape jokes aren't cool but what are you suggesting here? pic.twitter.com/s1mSNFx8."
"@WWE sure knows how to entertain its PG Universe. Charles Manson or the AntiChrist.. You decide! pic.twitter.com/9pcnnz1g."
He also re-tweeted a message reading, "HAHA i could see punk being a strait-edge-KKK supporter when the cameras go off...."
A.W. then responded to his critics, "ALLOW ME TO SAY THIS TO YOU WANNA BE "HE PLAYED THE RACE CARD" HATERS!! ITS NOT A RACIAL ISSUE BUT AN OFFENSIVE TO SENSITIVE VIEWER ISSUE.." | |

| I like the fact he isn't afraid to speak his mind, but c'mon!
Big Show mentioned rape as a part of a scripted segment 8 or 9 years ago when WWE was still a little edgy. He didn't randomly do it because he thought it would be cool. | |

| Agreed.
And even if Show had said what AW said AW is right that at worst Show would have just got fined/suspended NOT fired because he makes more money for the company. | |

| Question, how does the Straight Edge Society make Punk a racist? Uhh...it was a stable dedicated to cleaning ppls lives that drank and smoke. Do they not remember when Punk tried to have Darren Young join the group?
Also, if it werent a racial issue then why was he making racial insults on live television? Double standards are a bitch sometimes. | |
