That’s not good. Earlier this year, Alicia Fox performing under the influence of alcohol at a live event cost longtime WWE producer Arn Anderson his job. While Anderson was fired, Fox stuck around, though she seems to have retired from in-ring competition, being billed as a legend at Raw Reunion. However, the problems with Fox seems to be sticking around, this time in a bad way.
According to Casey Michael of Squared Circle Sirens, Fox was sent home from Summerslam weekend due to a drunk altercation with a fan. While the specifics of the incident are not clear, Fox was said to have either gotten in a fight with the fan or just yelled at them, causing someone to have to step in and break things up. At the moment, there is no word on what kind of punishment, if any, Fox will be facing.
Allegedly Alicia Fox was a drunk mess over the week. Trying to confirm what exactly went down. Very sad. Hope she gets the help she needs.

Hearing she was sent home after an "incident".

Something happened with a fan. Either a fight or just them yelling at one another and someone had to intervene in the situation.

It’s been a long time since Fox has been in a meaningful match. Check out her vs. Ronda Rousey from last year:
Opinion: What is there to say about this? It’s becoming pretty clear that Fox has a problem with alcohol and needs some kind of help with it. However, that kind of help isn’t going to work until she wants to get some help in the first place. At the moment though, she doesn’t need to be on the road with WWE if things like this keep happening. They aren’t going to fire her, but something clearly needs to change.
What should happen to Fox? How long will WWE keep her around? Let us know in the comments below.
