Konnan recently took to his “Keepin’ It 100 with Konnan” podcast to talk about a variety of topics including the incident that took place at AAA’s Triplemania XXXI Tijuana Event, where an AAA superfan/security personnel grabbed Don Callis after the show and took him down.
Konnan said, โDid he get attacked by a reporter? I go, โthatโs very inaccurate.โ The guy with Cornette, Brian Last, had written something where, according to Roy Lucier, who is a Triple A super fan who was in the first row, he said the guy was a photographer. Iโm like, โI donโt know how he would deduce that because he was not a photographer.โ 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 j***-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? Iโm kind of producing the segment, so Iโm looking at the cameras to make sure they get what they have to shoot, and all of a sudden, I hear Don going, โWhat the f**k.โ I look on the floor and this guy is trying to choke him out. Don gets up and heโs got a busted lip, his suit is ripped, he goes, โthis is f***in amateur hour. What the f**k.โ I was stunned, I couldnโt believe what I had seen. The guy disappeared and I was like, โthe guy that grabbed Don, he needs to be found before he leaves the f***ing arena.โ I went in there and I f***ing berated him and I got him fired. Heโs very lucky that my boys werenโt there, they would have handed him his ass. It was not a photographer.โ
