NYPD arrests Nick Peters for trespassing and aggravated battery during OCW event

The NYPD has arrested former OCW star Nick Peters (known as Solomon Caine) after he hopped the barricade at an OCW live event and assaulted three wrestlers and a security guard. He has since been charged with trespassing and aggravated battery.

 

Peters and OCW previously settled a lawsuit in July regarding the former star's refusal to appear for the company. Part of the settlement required Peters to make a final showing at Riot 606, and banned him from entering any OCW events afterwards. It is unknown if Peters made said appearance, as he did not appear on-camera during the episode.

 

The incident, shown live on TV, saw Peters strike one wrestler in the face with a metal claw and incapacitate another. A security guard who attempted to intervene was also incapacitated and thrown from the ring. Wrestler "The Last Blacksmith" rushed to the scene with a blunt weapon and after a brief scuffle was able to drive off the attacker.

 

When NYPD arrived on scene, "The Last Blacksmith" and Peters were found in a backstage parking garage. The attacker was arrested without resistance. "The Last Blacksmith" was also arrested but was released following clarification of the situation.

Solomon Caine should be careful, OCW management picks and chooses who gets reprimanded for breaking the rules. So expect to get the Claude Hall treatment. DNS gets threatened... nothing.
