Former WWE superstar Luther Reigns was involved in an incident with NODQ’s video show (XMV) crew member, at last night’s UPW show in Santa Ana last night. Mike Nagel who was the victim of the incident posted the following on his blog:

“So I'm filming Luther Reigns doing his promo and I'm standing pretty close to the ring apron, filming and Luther turns to me and says get that camera out of my face...Now I’ve been doing this long enough to know that no wrestler is ever going to be stupid enough to actually break an $1800.00 digital video camera...WOW I was wrong! This stupid son of a b*tch full on hit the camera knocking it into my mouth busting the inside of my lip open and knocking one of my teeth loose...I couldn't believe this and to be honest I was more concerned about the camera than myself...I've been hit in the face before, no big deal...but this camera is more important to me and Aaron than anyone else realizes, this is the XMV camera, not a UPW camera...THEE XMV Camera and I was f*cking p*ssed...Pukeboy, Jade, Jeff, and Aaron were all in disbelief over what happened, but I was f*cking p*ssed. I went to the back found Josh and told him what happened, everybody was apologizing and for that I respect UPW, however I do not respect Luther "Horshu" Reigns one bit, he saw me in the back after everything talking with Hawk from Tough Enough 2, Michael Moody, and Rick Bassman, the a**hole didn't offer an apology, he didn't come up to me and say sorry or shake my hand, he has no respect...I wonder why WWE FIRED HIS A**.”

At the moment the XMV team is waiting for legal advice before they proceed to take further action.

There is also video footage posted where you see the incident...

on a side note.....the video also shows Mike Nagel challenging Reigns to a fight...no offense to Nagel...but his challenge makes me laugh...

Also anyone wondering what XMV is should probably check it out on Nodqforums.com.......its a really good show....sometimes

Are you sure we're talking about Luther Reigns and not Kenny Rogers?

If he just found out about Kenny Rogers, than he is a slow slow person.

lol, I miss Reigns :(

The fat fucker deserves it, even more so after his stupid comments. He's promo-ing like Matt Hardy :roll:

I think next time Reigns is at UPW, the fat camera guy will come out and try and attack him, fail and scream "FUCK YOU REIGNS, I'LL SEE YOU IN ROH, RAAAAAAAAAAAR" whilst getting thrown out the building.

LMAO... in other news, the Texas Rangers have just signed Luther to a five year contract as starting pitcher.

ROFL at the cameraman too, trying to cut a promo. I'd like to see him say that to Luther in person. :rofl:

I could see the WWE signing Kenny Rogers and bringing back Luther Reigns and put them together as a tag team.

They can just go around beating the shit out of the cameramen.

Nah, his promo afterwards made him deserve it. WWE's cameramen get bumped all the time, whether they are ment to or not, but you don't see them cutting a promo on the guys who knocked them, calling them a mother fucker etc.

Yeah, the promo afterwards is really lame, I don't disagree with that, however, if he was there doing his job, and Luther Reigns basically smashes his camera for absolutely no reason, when its not even part of the show, then thats just plain wrong. The WWE camera guys get a pre-warning that they are gonna be "attacked", or there is an accident and they get caught, its no big deal. In this case, Nagel was filming FOR UPW, with no pre-warning of an attack, using his own camera, and he got attacked for pretty much no reason.

That said, his reaction is pretty priceless.

I suppose ROH could use Reigns...if they needed a big clumsy idiot to carry the bags of actual wrestling talents. But otherwise, good Hardy reference. :y:
