A new story about Ludwig Kaiser’s elevator fight is getting a lot of attention. Let’s see what else is floating around in today’s rumors!
Top rumor of the day:
The police report that TMZ obtained on Ludwig Kaiser aka El Grande Americano’s arrest for battery alleged that Kaiser immediately began punching his neighbor after they exited an elevator. This was said to be his violent response after the neighbor said, “Please have some manners,” following Kaiser and his girlfriend getting “uncontrollably intimate” during the elevator ride.
A wildly different story about the elevator incident is now making the rounds, courtesy of Wrestling Inc. Founder Raj Giri:
“This is what I heard regarding the Ludwig Kaiser situation. He was in the apartment elevator with [his girlfriend] and they were being affectionate, but nothing crazy or out of the ordinary. [His neighbor] allegedly didn’t say anything in the elevator but once he got out on the 12th floor, he allegedly said something to Kaiser to the effect of ‘you need to show some f’n respect before I call ICE on that bitch.’ Kaiser got out of the elevator and they had a little scuffle, but no punches were apparently thrown.”
Needless to say, this account presents Kaiser’s alleged actions in a very different light than the police report, and offers context that significantly changes the nature of the conversation about his arrest.
