Roman Reigns was struck in the head by a replica Money in the Bank briefcase and a fan was ejected from the arena at a WWE house show Saturday night in Victoria, British Columbia.

According to Raj Giri of WrestlingInc.com, a fan in attendance threw a briefcase that hit Reigns in the back of the head, and security escorted the fan out.

Seriously, there should be some policy where it's being stated that the wrestler is allowed to strike back if someone from the crowd attacks him.

'Fans' like this douchebag shouldn't be encouraged to do stupid shit like this again. Wrestlers shouldn't deal with this shit. Like, you get hit by a fan and he's like 'Ooh, if you touch me, I'll sue you!'

When I first read about this, it reminded me of a rough moment for kayfabe, when during a "Jobber Killer" Ryback had a match with Miz, and Ryback was getting his super-over clothesline ready to go and... some dumbshit rushed the ring, Ryback looked over like "wtf" and then hit the clothesline... I couldn't help but wonder about this big dude over here just destroying the Miz and this fan reacts with laughing and charging the ring... Haha.

Come on, show some real badassery! Get some excitement going!!!

Throwing things at wrestlers is such b.s.

You're a "real badass"? Get in the ring with them. Show how rough a muthafucka you really are!

(BTW, once you're in the ring, you're legally fair game and attacking pro wrestlers is a really bad idea. Outside of a few people (most of whom are smart enough not to rush the ring and try to get in and attack them), most couldn't go toe-to-toe with a pro wrestler...these people typically have "combat arts" training and have to be legitimately tough to do their job...not to mention that, if they're willing to punch, kick, throw, etc., people they consider to be friends, what are they going to be willing to do to people they don't know who are attacking them while they're just doing their jobs?)

Cue all the ITG's (Internet Tough Guys) talking about how they could whip a wrestler's ass...any wrestler...especially some little shrimp like Daniel Bryan....who once held a burglar in an actual wrestling hold long enough for the cops to get there and arrest him.

I was at the event and the guy who threw it got arrested. He was outside the arena bragging about it and also trying to get back into the event.

WWE Fan Banned From All Future Events After Throwing Briefcase At Roman Reigns

As noted, a fan threw a replica Money In the Bank briefcase at Roman Reigns, hitting him in the head, during his match against Bray Wyatt at Saturday's WWE live event in Victoria, British Columbia.

CTVNews.ca confirms that the fan was arrested but the charges were later dropped after he issued an apology. There were no injuries in the incident. A Victoria police spokesman told CTVNews.ca that the fan "snuck" the briefcase into the arena and when other fans began chanting for him to throw it into the ring, he did.

The 31-year-old man has been banned from all future WWE events.

Good!

 

[Aids Johnson]

the hell do you "sneak" a briefcase into an event. If he can sneak that beast in, I'll be bringing a .75 of Jameson when I go.

 

[edge4ever]

Yeah this makes the security at this place look really weak as well

Good!

How...Why did the fans start chanting for him to throw the briefcase?

Is this what a live WWE show is like? During the main event tag match everyone just loses interest and starts saying "Hey, there's some dude in the sixth row that smuggled in a toy briefcase, ya know it would be fun if he beaned Reigns in the head with it! :yay:"

Thought the experience was better than that live?
