We previously reported the rumor that World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio and superstar Drew McIntyre were involved in a fight over the weekend. In an update to this story, PWInsider.com is reporting that the incident was actually McIntyre coming to the aide to help Del Rio as two men attacked him at a local California bar.
The brawl took place Saturday night in an Irish pub near the hotel that most of the WWE superstars and staff were staying in over SummerSlam weekend. Del Rio reportedly got into a argument with someone who then attacked the World Champion with his friends jumping in. This led to Drew McIntyre stepping in to assist his fellow WWE co-worker.
