AEW’s Cash Wheeler Receives Pre-Trial Date In Felony Legal Case – Cash Wheeler, real name Daniel Wheeler, is facing one count of aggravated assault with a firearm after being arrested in 2023.

A warrant for his arrest was filed on July 28 after the incident happened on July 27. He pleaded not guilty to the charge via his attorney on August 3 at his first appearance in court. The charge is considered a third-degree felony in Florida.

Wheeler allegedly flashed a gun during a road rage incident as this was not a domestic issue and did not know the people involved. All Wheeler’s firearms had to be turned over to the local sheriff’s department until the case was over.

According to court documents obtained by Pwinsider, the AEW star has a pre-trial hearing set for May 7th. Wheeler must appear at the hearing.

Wheeler will go to court for the start of his trial on May 20th. Throughout the process, he has continued to be booked by AEW. His last match was at Dynasty in a ladder bout for the vacant Tag Team Titles where his tag team partner, Dax Harwood, reportedly suffered a concussion.

Jimmy Smith: Everybody Behind The Scenes Couldn’t Stand Ronda Rousey – Former WWE/UFC commentator Jimmy Smith gave some insight into how some people behind the scenes in both companies felt about Ronda Rousey.

While speaking on a recent edition of SiriusXM’s Unlocking The Cage with Jimmy Smith, he took issue with Rousey not being accountable and past comments about her MMA losses being a result of concussions. 

He also claimed that Rousey, who has criticized WWE and Vince McMahon since leaving last year, wasn’t well-liked because of the way she treated others.

“I’ve never been a religious person, right? One of the things I’ve always said about God, he gets all the credit, none of the blame. That’s what Ronda Rousey wants. All the credit, none of the blame. I want credit for all my wins, my losses, I had CTE and all this and all that. I’m the greatest to ever do it, but when it didn’t work, it was so, and so, and so and so, and never me. She never gives credit to the people who actually beat her. The idea that ‘I left MMA and went to the WWE because I had concussion problems’ makes no sense. If you haven’t noticed, I don’t talk about things out of school. I don’t talk about things out of school, do I? Behind the scenes in WWE, behind the scenes in UFC, I don’t do that, right? Kind of a personal rule. Let me let you in on something, Ronda, if you are listening. The people behind the scenes, camera people, audio people, the people you can push around and the people you can bully and the people you can talk down to, can’t stand your f*****g a**. Everybody behind the scenes that had to put a mic on Ronda Rousey couldn’t stand her. I asked why and they said that she was a b**ch to us from the moment that she sat down to the moment she got up. Like it’s our fault, she has to do this interview to hype this fight or whatever. She’s miserable and she’s mean to us and we can’t stand her. They were cheering when she got knocked out. That’s what I was told.”
