In May this year, former WWE SUperstar Jake Atlas was arrested and charged with assault following an incident with his boyfriend.
At the time, it was reported that Atlas had been drinking and his partner had arrived to collect him, and refused Atlas’ offer to stay out and drink with him.
Atlas was also said to be enraged that his boyfriend has been showing “half more attention” to a mutual female friend of the couple.
The Arrest
This week, TMZ Sports released the police video from the time of Atlas’ arrest.
In the video, the wrestler calls himself an “international trained Superstar” and that he has worked “across the world.”
Speaking about his boyfriend, Atlas said that he is a “nobody,” and that he is “terrible at sex.”
“He is a nobody. He is a f***ing b**ch ass. A f***ing p**sy.”

The domestic violence case against Atlas was dropped in June.
In a statement after his arrest, Atlas said he was “100% not proud of” his actions and admitted to alcohol abuse.
