Chucuan was in court this morning, so the decision to push the trial back was literally a last minute ruling.   There is no word why the trial was pushed back but COVID-19 related postponements are not uncommon for obvious reasons.

The arrest affidavit for Del Rio stated that he allegedly choked his victim and sexually assaulted her. There are allegedly photos to prove the marks that he left on her.

FOX affiliate in San Antonio reported that Alberto Del Rio “tied the woman’s hands with boxing straps, put a sock in her mouth and sexually assaulted her for several hours, using various objects. According to investigators, he also punched her in the back during the assault, causing visible injuries. The victim told detectives she does not remember much after he placed his hand around her throat.”

We will continue to monitor this ongoing story, but the trial date will have to wait a bit longer. It was previously speculated that the charges would be dropped when his victim came out and apologized to him. Del Rio’s brother also fired shot at her, calling his victim a liar.

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
