Well, he's pretty fucked, unless he has a hell is a story...

I heard his was in prison All Night Long.

Please neg rep me for that horrible smark joke.

what is false imprisonment?

kidnnapping?

fuck why am I older the 3/4s of the roster :'(

guess he's not getting the belt

Which one is he?

I always confuse him with the other one.

:nono:

He was meant to face Cedric Alexander for the #1 contendership tomorrow on Raw. They'll probably send out Hideo Itami in his place.

Damn. I was just thinking about how good he was the other day. I don't think he would have gone over Cedric anyway, but this doesn't seem dope for anyone involved.

That match would have been tight though.

I don't think we'll get Itami in his place, either. It'll probably be Drew Gulak (which would be fine) or Ariya Daivari (which would be exponentially less fine).

Wait. Didn’t Gulak win his way into the #1 Contender match?

Wasn't it a fatal four way with Cedric, Swann, Gulak, and Neese?

Just make it a tripe threat. No one would know or remember anyway.

Oh shit that's right, Gulak did win. But he was supposed to face Swann.

It was a good Fatal Four Way but that I can't remember the outcome shows how unimportant the division really is.

I think Alexander hit his finish and Gulak stole the win so I can see why you thought Alexander won.

The qualification matches were four ways to qualify for the one-to-one.

Oh yeah, I forgot the fatal four way was on Raw already.

Rich Swan's theme makes me dance everytime.

It is super catchy.

He's from Baltimore.

Bleh

I imagine they used the old tail light trick to nail him, right Dro?

The full police report is in there. Put his wife in a headlock to force her back into their car. There were two witnesses who called the cops. Also, his wife's account suggests that he has been violent towards her before.

There is zero chance he isn't getting fired.

Even if his wife drops the charges tomorrow, there is no way in hell they are putting him back on TV.

A headlock? Good thing this incident took place during a commercial break.

As a fellow husband, one thing they teach in the workshop is the abstinence of applying headlocks to our spouses.

At my pre-husband course they actually teach the mechanics of a solid working headlock to put on a show for the marks (or as the mainstream calls them, "witnesses")

Cole: "Rich Swan just loves to have fun"

Could you imagine him hurricanranaing her into the car?

What about hurricanranas?

Ca-razy!

Vince is going to freak out and just cancel the crusierweight division

Judge: "Rich Swann just loves to have fun! Case dismissed!"

Don't see him dancing his way out of this one.

Its only funny cause she's a wrestler too

Actually there's nothing funny about it.

????

Welp he's gone he can join Bram on the Spouse abusing asshole circuit.

I'm just surprised he's been kept on the roster as long if it's correct that there's been accusations made before.

Isn't your wife supposed to bounce off the car or crowd and then take the lock or does her promo matter in what happens to her?

If your wife requires a hurricanrana to settle down then she needs to be updated with new drivers or turned in for a new one

Witness: We thought it was a work, brother, cause of the widespread use of social media. I knew it wasn't after he refused to ask her if she could handle this, a question his theme song usually asks the audience when he is on screen.

I was going to assume by the way everything was worded that he's probably put her in headlock before because they train together.

Adam Rose didn't last long either

Wonder what would happen if Roman Reigns beat up a lady.

Whatever movie Cena was would instantly get put in Developmental Hell.

His wife is of the Hot Asian Variety, dude is a huge fucking moron and a piece of shit.

I wonder if he'll be able to handle this.


And by this, I mean extended jail time.

I wonder if he bought meth from the Kentucky King of Meth, owenbrown?

No autographs, please.

Really idiotic of him to do since it cost him a potential big push and now very likely a job in the WWE.

Depending on what they do with Itami, Cedric or Ali probably are getting their turn next for the big face push in the division.

Well I mean someone (ALLEGEDLY) abusing there girlfriend is generally not done by the most sound of mind.

Anthony Hopkins would like to volunteer to take his place tomorrow night. I've got a few moves up my sleeve. Bet you never thought you'd seen Odin do a hurricanrana?

What a loser. He prob also smokes the pot.

Sir, you're not fooling anyone. Your dick alone is over the 205 weight limit

Haha, yeah. I don't think this is a dumb thing because he was about to get a push. He's a piece of shit for doing it. He's done. TNA would take him though.

Too bad. If they could somehow splice his personality into Cedric Alexander's in-ring ability, they could have themselves something great on their hands.....

Hope that was worth it, because he just lost any shot he had at the big time....

That was probably the goal of their tag team.

Yeah he seemed like he was punching above his weight class with that woman for sure. Hot women seem to make men do stupid shit.

:lol: that's so wrong

The Gorm is strong within you, Gertner :shifty:

To answer your question, I have nor will I ever hit a woman and Rich Swann is a piece of shit

Would you hit Droford if he identified as a woman?

According to the Observer, the backstage reaction when Swann got arrested was a mixed of shock and some believing it would have happened eventually due to Swann and his wife's past. A lot of them also feel bad for the couple because they know how badly Swann screwed up his financial well-being.

Fuck Rich Swann.

Damnit

If his wife was smart she would leave him. WWE may give her a pity spot on the payroll too.

Something about a wrestler being arrested for hitting another wrestler is kinda funny to me.

Can't believe a black dude got arrested

Someone posted earlier that about his wife dropping the charges, doesn't matter if she refuses to cooperate or to testify against him. You have two statements that were submitted by eyewitnesses. He's screwed. Once you have eyewitnesses in an assault case, even if the victim refuses to cooperate, the state has picked up the charge and its no longer the victim pressing charges. The state doesn't need her to convict him. The statements of the two eyewitnesses alone will be enough to convict him.

He hasn't been released yet because WWE's Conduct Policy requires that the matter be resolved in some manner before any action is taken against talent regarding the cancellation or termination of their status as an independent contractor with World Wrestling Entertainment.

The false imprisonment charge if you look at the police report is a felony as well. He's looking at some serious time if he were tried and convicted. He's not stupid so his attorney will plea it out.

They'll drop the felony false imprisonment and he'll plead guilty to a misdemeanor count of spousal abuse/domestic violence, be required to complete a batter's intervention course, and likely fine/community service. There will be a no contact order with the victim as well and he'll be place likely on supervised/unsupervised probation for a period of time.

Regardless the outcome of plea deal or guilty finding, likely WWE will be terminating his contract with them.

He's gone.

I'm gonna miss his dancing.

He at least got wished the best, so I guess the charges were dropped?

The charges were dropped, but there were multiple witnesses and many were not surprised. It's best from a PR perspective to distance yourself at this point. And it's not like Swann was very good or very important anyway.

Oh, it makes sense to release him. Just maybe it won't get him blackballed from the entire industry.

He's already been booked for Tommy Dreamer's House of Hardcore promotion and a couple others on the indies for the next several months.
