This is not Bagwell’s first run-in with the law.  Bagwell had a bad car crash in 2020 and faced similar charges in Cobb County in 2021. 

Bagwell has received help for substance abuse from fellow wrestler Diamond Dallas Page, who runs an organization called DDP Yoga.

So far, Bagwell has not commented publicly on the charge.
