Alberto Del Rio Involved In Incident With Fan

According to TMZ, Alberto Del Rio was involved in a fan incident following Saturday’s SmackDown house show in Anaheim.

During the show, Del Rio did the typical heel tactic of ripping up a fan sign, which was a pro-Sheamus sign held by an eight-year-old boy. The mother accused Del Rio of bullying her son, mocking him when he began crying and ignoring her tweets seeking an apology. She in her letter to WWE, “Take signs from adults NOT KIDS! My son was bullied by your Superstars and it is not okay.”

The mother reached out to Sheamus after the incident and Sheamus offered to send her son a signed photo and meet up with him the next time WWE is in the area. The story does not note if WWE responded to the letter or not.

Here is the TMZ.com article:

A mother will do anything to protect her kid — just ask former “Shark Tank” winner Shelly Ehler … who’s picking a fight with a 6’5″, 239-pound WWE star after he made her 8-year-old cry.

But TMZ spoke to Shelly, who says her 8-year-old was terrified by the wrestler’s actions and instantly burst into tears. She adds, “Del Rio is a bully. I looked at him and said ‘he’s crying’ … and he mocked him.”
