Don Callis Assaulted by Fan After Triplemania XXXI, Heading to San Diego for Medical Treatment

AEW Executive Faces Violent Attack Following Post-Event Altercation

Don Callis, AEW executive and on-screen personality, was assaulted by a fan following Saturday’s electrifying Triplemania XXXI event in Tijuana.

According to reports, there was a post-show press conference where tensions escalated between Callis and Kenny Omega, further fueling their ongoing AEW feud. However, as security intervened to break up the fight during the altercation, a disgruntled fan launched an unexpected attack on Callis from behind.

Bryan Alvarez, a trusted source in the wrestling community, provided details of the assault. Apparently upset with Callis’ remarks towards Kenny, the fan viciously targeted Callis, ripping his suit, causing a concussion to his eardrum, and inflicting an injury that left his mouth bloodied. Callis bravely fought back despite being caught off guard, shouting profanities at the assailant until help arrived. His anger and frustration were evident in the aftermath of the incident.

The assault resulted in injuries to Callis’ neck and ankle, prompting him to seek immediate medical attention in San Diego. Alvarez emphasized that this disturbing incident was “absolutely not a work,” highlighting the authenticity of the situation.

Prior to the main event of Triplemania, Callis made an appearance, announcing his presence in Vikingo’s corner. However, before the match could commence, Konnan emerged, directing Callis to leave the ringside area. In an unexpected turn, Vikingo emerged victorious, securing a clean pinfall victory over Kenny Omega with a remarkable 630 splash.

As the wrestling community grapples with this alarming incident, we extend our thoughts and well-wishes to Don Callis for a swift recovery. Such incidents serve as a reminder of the inherent risks involved in live events and highlight the importance of ensuring the safety and security of everyone involved.
