Former WWE champion Alberto Del Rio has been detained by authorities in Mexico following allegations of domestic violence, according to multiple reports.
Del Rio was taken into custody in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, after his wife filed a formal complaint accusing him of physical assault. A purported mug shot has circulated on social media platforms, though official confirmation remains pending.
"The detainment was reportedly the result of a complaint filed by Alberto's wife, who alleged he beat her," sources indicated.
Alberto Del Rio, whose real name is José Alberto Rodríguez, made wrestling history during his WWE tenure. In 2011, he became the first Mexican wrestler to win both the WWE Championship and the World Heavyweight Championship. That same year, he achieved another milestone by winning both the Royal Rumble and the Money in the Bank ladder match—the first wrestler ever to accomplish both victories in a single year.
Del Rio signed with WWE in 2009 and became one of the organization's most prominent international stars before his departure. His arrest marks another chapter in the wrestler's controversial career, which has previously included legal issues and public disputes.
Authorities have not released additional details about the specific charges or the circumstances surrounding the alleged incident. The case remains under investigation as more information emerges.
