Received this press release from a music publicist who apparently reps wrestling on the side:
Chicago White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski found himself in the middle of a brawl...(November 29) in Orlando, Fla., when he attended a TV taping for TNA Wrestling’s iMPACT!, which airs every Saturday night on SPIKE-TV...
Pierzynski, a longtime pro wrestling fan, was there to present White Sox memorabilia, including numerous team-signed items, to “The Phenomenal” A.J. Styles, Chris Sabin and Sonjay Dutt...of TNA's...X-Division, a group of...wrestlers who have no fear, no limit and no boundaries inside the ring.
During the presentation, the cocky Simon Diamond and his Diamonds in the Rough entourage of David Young and Elix Skipper interrupted the proceedings. When a brawl broke out, Pierzynski pushed down Young before security broke apart the combatants.
...The highlights from Pierzynski's TNA Wrestling appearance will air Thursday, December 8...on SPIKE-TV, starting at 10 p.m. ET. Plus, Pierzynski will “manage” Sabin, Dutt and Torborg in a live pay-per-view match on Sunday, December 11, in Orlando, against Diamond, Young and Skipper. Fellow major league baseball players are expected to be in attendance to support Pierzynski...
Staged, of course--just like those eye-to-eye staring contests before the big boxing matches. And I would hardly call one pushdown a "brawl!"
