Trial For Lawsuit Against CM Punk And Colt Cabana Delayed

CM Punk and Colt Cabana did not go to trial today. 

Back in 2014, CM Punk left WWE and then appeared on Colt Cabana's podcast to explain why he left the company. He alleged a doctor employed by WWE Chris Amann allowed him to compete in the Royal Rumble match with a staph infection among other wrong doings. Amann then filed a lawsuit against the two wrestlers for libel.

On Monday, the trial was due to start but according to Austin Kellerman of Kellerman On Wrestling the trial was delayed because of a judge reassignment. 

Pro Wrestling Sheet reported the trial was delayed because the two sides are attempting to settle without a lengthy court case. 

CM Punk is fighting at UFC 225 in 19 days against Mike Johnson. It will be CM Punk's second fight in mixed-martial-arts and Fightful will have live coverage of the event.
