…
Jeff Jarrett held conference call today and addressed the allegations of Alberto El Patron’s domestic violence situation that he is currently involved in. Here are a few highlights:
Jeff Jarrett said the situation with Alberto is unfortunate. They are “digging into this matter”
Jarrett said he is picking brains of NFL and NHL coaches/personal regarding Alberto situation. It’s a case by case basis when dealing athletes.
When a caller asked if they were going to edit Patron off episodes of Impact, they snubbed the caller and moved on to the next question.
When asked about if the GFW title is currently vacant, Jarrett wouldn’t comment much on it as there is currently an investigation going on. He stated the title is the least of importance in regards to this situation.
Jarrett says he has been in contact with Alberto and his representatives. Jarrett says its a ‘priority’ to keep top guys with the company.”
As reported earlier, WWE might be planning to split The Hype Bros after last night’s Battle Royale spot which saw Mojo Rawley eliminating Zack Ryder. Ryder was visibly disappointed over his elimination from the Battle Royale by his own best friend.
The Broski took to Twitter to react to his best friend’s betrayal:
To this, Rawley replied:
However, Ryder understood the situation and seems to have let it go:
It was reported over the weekend that Alberto Del Rio dumped Paige over after the two had another argument. After these reports surfaced online, Paige took to her Twitter account to debunk those reports.
Del Rio also sent out a message but deleted it on Twitter. It read:
OK MARKS LEAVE US ALONE
INTERNET SHIT IS INTERNET SHIT WE ARE PERFECT AS ALWAYS
Dave Meltzer discussed this topic on today’s installment of Wrestling Observer Radio. Meltzer mentioned that he has spoke to people close to the situation and he can confirm that as of yesterday that the two are not together.
Russo was avoiding this discussion and he had no intention of talking about this on his show, but after multiple false reports from wrestling ‘journalists’, he thought he had to clear the air and get the true story out there once and for all.
Speaking about the wrestling ‘journalists’, he points out that not one of them reached out to him to get the actual story after this news broke. Instead, they all took the news and gave their own biased spin on it, which is the polar opposite of respectable journalism. This proved the point that he’s been saying for years, that if you’re paying for the opinions of these guys, you’re wasting your money.
Getting into the heart of the situation, Russo says that he has been ridiculed by Jim Cornette for over two decades. It has been a constant battle between him and Cornette, but in the past couple of weeks Cornette took things to an entirely new level by threatening violence on him and his family.
He says that he only lives roughly two hours from Cornette now, and his wife is often home alone. She was quite upset after Cornette’s recent rant, and Russo felt it was necessary to take matters into his own hands by getting this Order of Protection. Hopefully this allows his wife to relax, and keeps Cornette out of their business for the foreseeable future.
