Wrestling veteran Disco Inferno believes that WWE could sign an AEW star in a similar deal as CM Punk because of his behavioral issues. The talent in question is Sammy Guevara.
The Jacksonville-based promotion suspended the Spanish God after he accidentally injured Jeff Hardy during a No DQ match on Rampage. Recent reports suggest that the suspension was imposed on Guevara for not proceeding to the finish immediately after the injury.
While discussing Guevara's suspension on Keepin' It 100 OFFICIAL, Disco Inferno suggested that the 30-year-old star could face difficulties signing with major promotions like WWE once his AEW contract runs out.
He further claimed that Guevara's actions would be under scrutiny if the Triple H-led promotion hired him. For his argument, Inferno used the example of CM Punk, who was fired by Tony Khan in 2023 after multiple instances of backstage violence.

The former WCW Cruiserweight Champion referenced the alleged "behavior clause" included in Punk's contract, which was reported after his WWE return at Survivor Series 2023.
"Yeah, Sammy Guevara is getting into the, 'Yo, this is his problem now.' He's very young, and when his deal is up with AEW, he's gonna have some options. But the WWE might look at this guy like, 'Hey, you're coming in on, like, a probationary period.' It's like, you're coming, maybe, kind of like under the microscope that Punk is under. Like, you have to be on perfect behavior, or else, you know." [00:58 - 01:29]
