Ricky Steamboat Involved in Physical Altercation in Indie Show

One of the greatest WWE Legends & Hall of Famers in history is none other than Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat. He is best known for his work with the American Wrestling Association (AWA), Jim Crockett Promotions (JCP), World Championship Wrestling (WCW), and the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), now World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).
In JCP and WCW, he was a one-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion, a four-time United States Heavyweight Champion, a four-time World Television Champion, a twelve-time World Tag Team Champion (eight-time under the WCW banner), (one-time though unofficial under the NWA banner), (and three-time under the Mid-Atlantic banner), and a two-time Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight Champion. In the WWF/E, Steamboat was a one-time Intercontinental Heavyweight Champion and he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2009.
Just recently, WWE Hall of Famer Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat took part in a physical altercation in Akron, Ohio for Absolute Intense Wrestling’s “Enter The Dragon” event. According to a fan in attendance, Steamboat was speaking to the crowd when he was interrupted by AIW wrestler Duke. Duke tried grabbing Steamboat, which led to Steamboat physically attacking Duke. Below are the tweets from the event:

No. Steamboat came out and was addressing the crowd when Duke interrupted him. Steamboat went to leave, Duke grabbed him, he laid Duke out.
