This fucking sucks. I like Swann and this happens when he's in a middle of a push. I don't see the WWE keeping him around.
Im not sure how one is "exonerated" from this
According to the arrest report, the two were traveling from the event and began arguing after Swann was criticizing Yung’s performance and began to get angry with her. Yung was afraid that argument would escalate and got out of the car as Swann, who was driving, was in the middle of traffic. Swan chased after Yung and yelled for her to return to the car, but she refused and began to walk away. Swann then allegedly grabbed Yung by the arm and put her in a headlock. He began to bring her back to the car as she screamed for help. According to a witness, Yung was “beating on the window screaming for help” as the car drove away, which a second witness described as “erratic.” That second witness noted that Swann failed to put the car in park during the argument, and the car moved forward and struck a telephone pole. The first witness said that Yung “seemed very afraid of the Defendant and was trying to get away from him.”
Police stopped Swann about a mile away from the altercation and placed him under arrest. Yung told authorities that she was afraid of Swann and of the possibility that the argument would get physical, as “he has a temper sometimes.” She said she asked Swann to pull the car over so that she could leave the vehicle, but said he refused so she waited until the car slowed in order to jump out.
Swann, according to the report, denied after being read his rights that he touched Yung, and said she returned to the car on her own. He said that he wanted to return home and that he needed her to come with because of her phone’s GPS. The report says that the two have been together five years, and have been married for nine months. He is currently being held at Alachua County Jail in Gainesville, Florida and has been charged with kidnapping and false imprisonment, as well as battery – touching or striking. The former charge is third-degree felony, while the second is a first-degree misdemeanor.
Yeah. Given he was being pushed, his timing is pretty bad. But I suppose it creates a potential opportunity for someone else. Someone who may be hasn't had a shot like he did.
I wonder if they will even explain it on TV, or if they'll just act like nothing happened.
Considering what it was, probably not
oh come off of it, THIS is not a court of law, its an internet forum
and considering we live in a society that wants to victim blame first, I am absolutely fine with saying Rich Swann is a women beating POS and needs to be held accountable
starting with losing his WWE job
Cases like this needs to be looked at with heavy scrutiny. Screw that listen and believe garbage.
thats what the authorities are for
I am an average citizen and can decide how I choose to react
and considering Ive lived a situation like this, when my ex-stepfather did almost the same thing to my mom in a public street and no one did anything, yeah Im a bit biased about things like assault and domestic violence
As an average citizen I chose to react in a way that won't potentially ruin someone's life on a whim. Kneejerking never makes anything better. WWE already suspended him. We'll have to wait to see how the case develops before wishing him on his future endeavors.
its not a whim
its a police statement by two people stating what happened
Part of me hopes that this is a misunderstanding and that Rich won't go to jail. He seems like a good guy and fun to watch on Raw. The other part hopes that, if it's determined he did what he's accused of, he gets released without delay. WWE has enough issues to worry about without continuing to employ a domestic abuser.

Domestic violence SHOULD NOT BE TOLERATED in any situation. The news about Rich Swann is sad, unexpected & pathetic. Coincidentally his wife is performing this Saturday at House Of Glory against Sonya Strong. I look for WWE to make an example and terminate him IMO
