Cash Wheeler Arrested in Orlando for Aggravated Assault

Cash Wheeler, one-half of the AEW Tag Team Champions FTR, was arrested in Orlando on Friday on an active warrant. He was charged with aggravated assault with a firearm, a third-degree felony.

The arrest warrant was issued for Wheeler, 36, on July 27, after an alleged road-rage incident in which he "allegedly flashed a handgun at the alleged victim," according to state prosecutors.

Wheeler posted a $2,500 bond and was released from jail on Friday. He did not respond to reporters' questions outside the jail.

The judge ordered Wheeler to have no contact with the victim or witnesses and to turn over any guns he owned to the sheriff's office.

Wheeler is scheduled to wrestle at AEW's All In London event at Wembley Stadium on August 27. It is unclear if he will still be able to compete in the event.

AEW issued a statement about Wheeler's arrest, saying that the company is "closely monitoring the situation" and that Wheeler is "fully cooperating with local authorities."

Background on Cash Wheeler

Wheeler is a professional wrestler from Davenport, Iowa. He has been wrestling since 2008 and has worked for several different promotions, including Ring of Honor, New Japan Pro-Wrestling, and WWE.

In 2019, Wheeler and his tag team partner Dax Harwood signed with AEW. They quickly became one of the top tag teams in the company and won the AEW Tag Team Championships in 2020.

Wheeler is known for his technical wrestling skills and his hard-hitting offence. He is also a popular figure among fans and is considered one of the best tag team wrestlers in the world.

The Impact of Wheeler's Arrest

Wheeler's arrest is a major development in the world of professional wrestling. It is unclear what the long-term implications of the arrest will be, but it is likely to have a significant impact on Wheeler's career.

If Wheeler is convicted of aggravated assault, he could face a prison sentence of up to five years. He could also be banned from wrestling in AEW or any other promotion.

The arrest could also damage Wheeler's reputation and make it difficult for him to find work in the future.

The Future of FTR

The future of FTR is also uncertain. The team is currently scheduled to defend the AEW Tag Team Championships at All In London on August 27. However, it is unclear if Wheeler will be able to compete in the event.

If Wheeler is unable to compete, it is possible that FTR will be forced to vacate the titles. It is also possible that the team will be disbanded.

The arrest of Cash Wheeler is a major setback for FTR and for the AEW. It remains to be seen how the team will be able to move forward from this incident.

Additional Information:

• Wheeler is the second AEW wrestler to be arrested in recent months. In June, former TNT Champion Sammy Guevara was arrested for domestic violence.
• Wheeler's arrest is a reminder that even professional wrestlers are not immune to the law. It is important to remember that everyone is responsible for their own actions.
• I hope that Wheeler is able to get the help he needs and that he is able to put this incident behind him.
