PORTAGE, Wis. (AP) - Professional wrestler X-Pac and a spurned
autograph-seeker who
accused him of assault were all smiles after a jury decided neither one
deserved compensation.
"Each was so relieved the other did not get a judgment against them.
It was hysterical," said Alan Eisenberg, who represented the fan in
Friday's trial.
X-Pac, a World Wrestling Federation wrestler whose real name is Sean
Waltman, claimed Elias Urbina harassed him as he and his family
were getting off a ride at a water park. After some pushing, Urbina
kicked Waltman when Waltman's back was turned and then Waltman
punched Urbina in the face, court records said.
The jury ruled Waltman, 28, acted in self-defense and Urbina did not
act maliciously in the attack. Neither man received monetary damages.
