Quote
[In Spring 2004] myself, Chris Sabin, Johnny Devine, Sabu, and
Jack Evans were the only people who witnessed the fight [between CM Punk and
Teddy Hart] with our eyeballs. What happened was we used to eat at this place
called the White Trash Cafй, just a name, thats where we used to have our
catering at; it was right across the street from where we filmed. I didnt know
that they had beef with each other at all; I wasnt hip to what was going on on
the internet. Apparently they bad mouthed each other on the internet; I dont
know the whole story behind the back story. Were eating and I saw Teddy and
Jack walk in there and then me Sabin and Johnny Devine were walking away and
they were like hey Punk is in the restaurant and Teddy just walked in, want to
see what happens? Im like whats going on guys? They said you know [Punk and
Hart] dont like each other. We turned around and pretty much like Teddy and CM
Punk walked out and it was kind of like, one of them says youve got a problem,
hes like youve got a problem? There was like one shove, I cant remember who
shoved whose shirt first. Then it was just a couple of quick punches, Teddy got
the upper hand I think like Punk kind of tripped and Teddy kind of tripped him
over or something so he was on his ass. Teddy was like punching him, and then
Sabu jumped in, this all happened within 20 seconds. Sabu jumped in and kind of
tore them apart and as Sabu is trying to tear them apart Teddy still has Punks
hair and is trying to kick him in the face. Then they kind of both went their
separate ways, and the office found out about it and that was the last time I
ever saw Punk in TNA. Then after Teddy did his stint with Team Canada that
lasted another week, he never came back. You cant fight, theres consequences
right.
