That takes care of things. Wrestling fans watch their favorite, and sometimes not so favorite, stars on TV on a regular basis. It can be easy to forget that we are watching real people get in the ring every so often. These people have real life situations going on outside of the ring and no one of the most serious issues has been wrapped up in a bit of a surprise. According to PWInsider.com, former WWE Champion Alberto El Patron’s sexual assault charges were dismissed on Friday and the case is officially closed. A witness was said to be missing, meaning that El Patron is cleared of all liability in the situation. The trial was scheduled to have begun on Monday.

There is no word on if WWE would be interested in having him back, possibly due to El Patron’s ex-fiance Paige working for the company. The two of them have accused each other of domest..

Promoter, booker, and the current co-executive Vice President of IMPACT Wrestling Scott D'Amore has his sights set on changing the direction of the company. Along with former pro wrestler and current NJPW commentator Don Callis, D'Amore wants to slowly earn back one fan at a time to IMPACT.

"There is no short game to this, there is no magic pill or snapping of your fingers,” said D’Amore, "Our goal is to make a bunch of small decisions and those small decisions are going to slowly lead to things getting better and building a little momentum.” On April 6th, IMPACT Wrestling hosted a joint show with Lucha Underground where stars from both productions went head-to-head throughout the night in in-ring competition. In the..
