On Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez reports that Perry's indefinite suspension (handed out for his role in the Punk fight) has expired. Currently, AEW is figuring out how they want to bring the former 'Jungle Boy' back.

Interestingly, Perry recently filed a trademark application for his old ring name, which he abandoned while feuding with Christian Cage earlier in the year. Filed with the USPTO on 5 December, the application states the following purposes:

Perry's Boy Myth Legend, Inc. has filed a similar application for 'Jack Perry'.

Jack is a day-one AEW wrestler, having signed with the young promotion upon its January 2019 launch. He was reportedly escorted from the arena at All In, after the Punk fracas had been incited by Perry saying "It's real glass, cry me a river" down the camera lens, referencing a previous backstage disagreement between the two stars.
