As noted, Alberto Del Rio missed a recent Triple A event over the weekend due to an incident where he was attacked by someone with a knife before his flight.
MLW Radio is now reporting that the reason that Del Rio was unable to contact Triple A is because he lost his phone after the altercation. He was able to make contact with Triple A on Monday morning. The company apologized for their initial statements and is now fully backing him. The two are now in good standing. Del Rio apparently tried to charter a plane to Mexico but was talked out of it since he was still in the hospital.
The confrontation took place in San Antonio when the driver of a car hit Del Rio’s car. Del Rio and the driver both exited their cars and then some words were exchanged before the driver pulled a knife. As Del Rio went to walk away he was attacked from behind and slashed. Del Rio then tried to turn around and as he did the man tried to slash his face but Del Rio was able to move and was instead slashed in the head.
Del Rio then took the man down and in the process the driver slashed and stabbed Del Rio’s arm. Del Rio eventually was able to get the knife from the driver but in the end the driver was able to get in his car and leave. Witnesses were able to get the driver’s license plate number but there’s no word on if he’s been arrested. Police came, a report was filed and Del Rio went to the hospital to get stitches. He lost a lot of blood but is he said to be alright.
