10 Shocking Controversies In Alberto Del Rio’s WWE Career-2

2. Bar Brawling Black Eye

Alberto Del Rio was going into SummerSlam 2013 as the World Champion. But on the night of the show, there was something unusual about him. His face was absolutely battered. He had two swollen black eyes.
The reason behind this bruising was a controversial bar fight that had taken place late on the Saturday night or Sunday morning. According to f4wonline, Del Rio was with fellow wrestler Drew McIntyre in a bar. A guy was bothering the scotsman, so Del Rio stepped in. Troubles quickly escalated into a bar brawl, with the results clear for everyone to see the next night. No doubt former MMA hardman Del Rio got the better of the exchanges, but he clearly took a bit of a pasting in the process.
Things like this are never ideal for the WWE. What was Del Rio doing out drinking on the eve of a major show? How did he allow himself to get into a fisticuffs with the general public? It didn’t look at all good for the man or the company
