Daniel Wheeler, who wrestling fans know as AEW star Cash Wheeler, was arrested by the Orlando Police Department on Friday morning, the Orlando Sentinel has learned. Per the report, the 36-year-old is facing one count of aggravated assault with a firearm.
PWInsider has since provided more information, revealing that the AEW star will have a hearing at 1 p.m. today. The warrant for his arrest was filed on July 28 and he was booked in the Circuit Court of Orange County, Florida. Wheeler has pled not guilty to the charge, which is considered a third-degree felony in the State of Florida.
Further details about the situation are minimal at the time of this writing. However, AEW has issued a statement to the Orlando Sentinel, noting that the company is aware of the situation.
“AEW has been made aware of the charge, and we are closely monitoring the situation. He (Wheeler) is fully cooperating with local authorities.”
Tonight’s AEW Dynamite ‘Fight For The Fallen’ live on TBS from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, TN.
All proceeds from ‘Fight For The Fallen’ will be going to the Maui Food Bank for the families affected by the fires.
Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. is taking a step back from being a dentist to focus more on All Elite Wrestling.
During a recent appearance on the “Jon Chuckery Show,” the DMD admitted that it’s been difficult to manage her work in both AEW and dentistry. She said,
“With the ever changing and every growing schedule with AEW, it was getting really hard to manage because I don’t want to be calling off last minute at the dental office all the time if Tony [Tony Khan] needs me for something for a TV taping or to go do media or an event. I hold myself accountable to be available for those types of events because I’m one of the faces of AEW and I want to be available for everything like that. Unfortunately, that means…I don’t want to say closing the door, but I’m definitely taking a step back from dentistry.”
Baker added that it’s unfair for her to have to cancel on her patients due to her AEW commitments. She said,
“It’s not fair to be canceling on patients all the time if something else popped up and it’s not fair to the staff. My staff is absolutely fabulous at the dental office, I love them to death. I’m still there a few times a month to check in on my old patients to make sure everyone is okay. I don’t really accept any new patients just because it was getting really tricky to navigate the waters of fans coming into the dental office and not really knowing who is there to be a patient and who is there to get an autograph and picture. It’s fun, but at the same time, it gets frustrating for my staff when they are there to see patients and keep a successful practice going.”

AEW star Jeff Jarrett has talked about his career revival and how he feels heading into AEW’s huge All In pay-per-view later this month.
The WWE Hall of Famer, during a recent interview with “Cultaholic Wrestling,” said that the last year for him in pro wrestling has been surreal.
“Absolutely,” said Jarrett when asked if he was surprised by his career resurgence. “At this stage of my career — and I’ve had some of the highest of highs and some of the lowest of lows — but you kind of look at the last year, and a little prior to that, from Game Changer Wrestling to the NWA, to WWE SummerSlam in my hometown at the stadium, and then you fast forward, here talking about Wembley 100, AEW All In, it is surreal. I do not … I am stopping and smelling the roses. I don’t take anything for granted.”
Jarrett admitted that he would’ve been grateful if AEW had sold 40,000 tickets for the All In show at Wembley Stadium, but is elated by the huge ticket sales, which has crossed 80,000.
The veteran star has had an interesting last 12 months in the pro wrestling business. The 56-year-old, who continues to wrestle over 35 years after making his pro wrestling debut, was a special guest referee in The Usos’ match against the Street Profits at last year’s SummerSlam. The event was held at the Nissan Stadium in Jarrett’s hometown of Nashville, Tennessee. Jarrett was released once again by WWE in August 2022, following which he wrestled in WrestleCade, GCW, and was also in Ric Flair’s final match, where he teamed up with Jay Lethal to face Flair and Andrade.
The Hall of Famer then signed with AEW in November last year, forming a faction that included Lethal, Sonjay Dutt, and Satnam Singh. At the time of writing, he hasn’t been added to the All In card, but a wrestler with the star power of Jarrett could very well be on the card for such a historic show.

Lineup for tonight’s AEW Rampage on TNT.
On a recent edition of the “Swerve City Podcast,” Nick Jackson stated that the ending for the Blood & Guts match on AEW Dynamite last month was indeed rushed.
Nick was frustrated with having to finish the main event early. He said,
“There are some moments, I’ll be honest, I want to say it was Blood & Guts, we had to take the match home quick. I look at Matt and Hangman, “Dangit! That wasn’t the best match. I wanted it to be the best match.’ Matt is like, ‘are we all healthy? Can we walk?’ ‘Yeah. Oh, you’re right.’ Even I get lost sometimes in the moment, ‘I wanted it to go this way, but I’m healthy, whatever.’ That was in the ring, not backstage. The bell rang, we’re raising our hands, and I’m like, ‘Dangit.’”
Matt Jackson noted they watched the match back later and “were popping for everything. At the end of the hour, we’re like, ‘that was friggin’ great.’”
Nick said, “Yeah. I was like, ‘what was I mad about?‘”
