As reported on www.wbbjtv.com

Former WWE and TNA wrestler Brian Christopher is in the Madison County Jail.

Brian Christopher Lawler, 37, of Lakeland, was arrested just before 3:00 a.m. Friday at a convenience store at the Hwy 45 Bypass and Old Hickory Dr. He is charged with public intoxication.

A store clerk told officers Lawler fell over a cooler outside the store before coming inside.

According to the police report, "Mr. Lawler was very unsteady on his feet, had slurred speech and once placed in custody became very belligerent. The officer said cursed and threatened him as he arrested him. At one point, the officer stated Lawler threatened to rip off his head.

Lawler is set to appear in Jackson City Court, Monday. This is his second arrest in the Hub City this year. He was picked up for disorderly conduct in February.

Brian Lawler has been a professional wrestler for several years with different organizations including World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and Total Nonstop Action (TNA). He has performed using names including Brian Christopher and Grand Master Sexay.

BAR FIGHT

----This is not the only incident we have been getting word of with Christopher and that pic might have some people wondering about the black eye? Apparently Christopher was involved in a bar fight with some MMA guys from the Jamma origination in Jackson that Bill Dundee was helping promote. Christopher’s fight with the MMA guy had them fighting outside to the parking lot where they ran into some motorcycles. A scene right out of movie had the bikers then jumping him with like 4 guys beating him up and him still fighting the MMA guy. When it was finally broken up, Christopher was really beat up [two black eyes in the photo], but was still taunting the bikers and MMA guys. I was told some of the guys there said that he was one of the toughest “SOBs” they had ever seen.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT??

----This is the same ol’Brian messing up and doing the same crap. The word I got was that his news at the tapings in Memphis after talking to John Laurinaitis was not bad, but there was no promise of a job or anything. Apparently he must have got more news that was negative, because it seems he has “fallen off the wagon” again. Brian in a phone conversation with me after the Bishop incident stressed how he was clean and happy about his upcoming look by the WWE. He also said and told other people in his life he felt that this was his “last chance” at 37 years old at getting back in the WWE and it might have made him go over the edge if the outlook was not positive.
