Konnan Reveals What Really Happened During Legit Attack On Don Callis At AAA TripleMania

During the latest episode of his “K100” podcast, Konnan addressed the recent attack on Don Callis at the post-show press conference after AAA TripleMania, setting the record straight as to what really happened. Konnan clarified that the attacker was not a photographer, as initially reported, but a member of the event’s security team.

“Did he get attacked by a reporter? I go, ‘that’s very inaccurate.’ The guy with [Jim] Cornette, Brian Last, had written something where, according to Roy Lucier, who is a AAA super fan who was in the first row, he said the guy was a photographer. I’m like, ‘I don’t know how he would deduce that because he was not a photographer.’”

Konnan explained the sequence of events, stating that the attacker interfered during an interview with Kenny Omega and Takeshita, leading to a heated altercation. He expressed his anger at the attacker’s actions and revealed that he got him fired for the incident. He said,

“What had happened was, Kenny was doing this interview and Takeshita was going to attack him from behind. Don was going to come out and berate [Kenny] and Kenny was going to go after him. When he goes after him, Takeshita attacks him. We already had security on hand to separate everybody. Some jack-off, he can thank his lucky stars that the group that usually takes care of me in [Tijuana] were out bodyguarding this politician or he would have had his ass handed to him right then and there. This f***ing guy, who I guess, from what the promoter told me, he does security for him, and he was there because the guys who were in the security force were his bros and he went to say hi to them. Why was this motherf***er getting involved? I’m kind of producing the segment, so I’m looking at the cameras to make sure they get what they have to shoot, and all of a sudden, I hear Don going, ‘What the f**k.’ I look on the floor and this guy is trying to choke him out. Don gets up and he’s got a busted lip, his suit is ripped, he goes, ‘this is f***in amateur hour. What the f**k.’ I was stunned, I couldn’t believe what I had seen. The guy disappeared and I was like, ‘the guy that grabbed Don, he needs to be found before he leaves the f***ing arena.’ I went in there and I f***ing berated him and I got him fired. He’s very lucky that my boys weren’t there, they would have handed him his ass. It was not a photographer.”
