A fan jumped the barricade at a WWE live event.
On December 3, WWE held a live event at the Bob Carpenter Center in Newark, Delaware. Among other matches, Austin Theory and Grayson Waller faced Odyssey Jones and Cameron Grimes. One fan apparently had an issue with Waller, as they jumped the barricade and tried to attack him. Thankfully, security officials immediately restrained the individual, and they were escorted to the back.

Update: Waller later responded to the incident on social media. He stated that it marked what happens when "idiot Americans" try to get in a battle of wits with an Aussie.
