  • Marcel Barthel, 35, was arrested Wednesday in Orange County, Florida, on a misdemeanor battery charge and was later released after posting $1,000 bond.
  • The charge stems from an alleged altercation with another man; earlier reports said the incident dated to April 23 and that police cited injuries and surveillance footage.
  • Barthel's attorneys moved the same day to let him travel abroad for work, and multiple reports said he returned to Florida to turn himself in.
  • The German wrestler, known in WWE as Ludwig Kaiser and El Grande Americano, is still scheduled for a mask-vs.-mask match against Chad Gable on May 30.
