Michael Brendli, 25, better known to wrestling fans as Mikey of the Spirit Squad, was arrested on DUI charges late last night in Tampa, Florida. He is currently a member of WWE developmental Florida Championship Wrestling's roster.
The former WWE World Tag Team Champion was pulled over and then arrested on Adamo Drive East and Falkenburg Road South at 11:12 PM last night. Brendli was listed as having a blood alcohol level of 0.94. A second test was conducted and it had him at a level of 0.91. He was released from jail a little more than an hour ago at 2:17 p.m. this afternoon after posting $500 bond.
According to the police report of his arrest, Brendli refused to list his employer.
Brendli's DUI arrest marks the third such incident of a WWE-contracted performer in the Tampa area this year. Both Ted DiBiase, Jr. and Santino Marella were also recently charged with DUI. In DiBiase's case, it was following an accident where his car struck another vehicle.
