Earlier this year, WWE helped Justin Credible get rehab after he posted a video in July talking about how he was arrested and faces jail time since a public defender never got back to him. He said he would get help in Tampa, Florida for alcohol abuse.
PWInsider reports that Credible (real name PJ Polaco) showed up at Blitzkreig Wrestling event last night in Enfield, Connecticut and was reportedly intoxicated. Credible was booked at the event for a pre-show signing and an in-ring promo. He was described as “unable to perform” when he got there and was pulled from the show. When he was told about this, he still went to the ring and got on the mic to cut a slurred, profanity-laden promo before the locker room got him out of the ring. You can see video below.
During his promo, he walked around the ring claiming he loves “this business”, he wasn’t trying to hijack the show and was leaving on his own. A source with Blitzkreig said yelled at Credible and said he was “drunk and disturbing the show” and a “disgrace” and “tells people that you’re sober but you’re not.” Credible muttered into the mic but was told to leave. A person at the show called it “the saddest thing” they’ve seen and said they were worried about his health. After he was removed, it took a long time to get him out of the building and into a ride home.
Last month, Credible praised the WWE for helping him. He said at the time: “When I retired from pro wrestling I honestly didn’t think I would miss it all that much. The last year of my life has been full of ups and downs. Most of them public. My struggles with addiction have been well documented. I’m pleased to say that TODAY i’m clean and sober. Through the amazing help of the @WWE wellness program I am able to live a life I never thought possible with gratitude love and compassion. I also want to say that when I retired October 16 2015 I was not the person that you remember as Justin Credible.What I’m basically trying to say is 2018 is going to be the year that I redeem myself. Not only in the eyes of the fans but of my peers. I gave this business everything and in return I got lost along the way as so many do. This is in some gimmick to try to get bookings.”
