As we’ve been reporting here on eWn, 24-year Elisah Spencer has been arrested for attacking Seth Rollins during Monday’s episode of RAW. The charges against him include attempted assault and attempted violation of arts and cultural affairs (disrupting live sporting event).
Spencer has since taken to social media to explain his actions and he appears proud of himself. In his video, which you can see below, Spencer said he had some “personal beef with Colby Lopez” (the real name of Seth Rollins). He said,
“Good morning guys, I’m out. That was me on WWE. I was booked from Goldberg and Vince McMahon and I jumped over the barricade because I told Vince McMahon I had personal beef with Colby Lopez.
This man did not tell Colby I was going to be there. And the personal beef is between me and Colby and he knows what he’s done. So as a… related to the tribal chief and tribal chief cousin, Royal 4 and Fatu Instagram, I did what I had to do.”
Spencer said he made his family proud and then thanked WWE officials “for taking me off Colby Lopez.” At one point during his video, he said, “I did it for Rikishi! I did it for The Rock! I did it for all my tribal family!”
Spencer was reportedly the victim of being catfished over money by someone claiming to be Rollins. Of course, it wasn’t really Seth and that’s why Spencer decided to attack him at RAW.
Twitter user @notKHRIS took to Twitter today and posted some screenshots of the catfishing scheme that had Spencer fooled. Spencer had been messaging with a fake Seth Rollins account and the deal between the two men fell apart.
Anyways, you can check out some screenshots of the catfishing attempt as well as Elisah Spencer commenting on why he attacked Rollins below. It should be noted that it appears he’s dealing with some mental health issues. Sad story all around and we here at eWrestlingNews.com sincerely hope he gets the help he needs.
