And with a pre-trial conference set for July, Kaiser&#8217;s defense team has begun making moves. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.f4wonline.com\/news\/wwe\/new-motion-filed-in-ludwig-kaiser-legal-case\/\" target=\"_blank\">F4WOnline<\/a> reports the defense filed a motion on Tuesday with the intention to receive the surveillance video that&#8217;s believed to indicate the incident between Kaiser and the victim.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In response to the motion, Kaiser&#8217;s defense had attempted to achieve access to the surveillance footage, which had been stored by the apartment complex. The request was denied, nevertheless, with the complex stating that a subpoena was required to have the footage released. This led to the defense&#8217;s motion, which notes that the prosecution has no objections, seemingly clearing the best way for the defense to acquire access. The motion gives no indication that the defense is difficult previous descriptions of what the footage entails, but somewhat wants it with the intention to properly prepare Kaiser&#8217;s defense.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Kaiser is alleged to have attacked the victim, Richard Reap, after the latter made a comment towards Kaiser and a lady he was with, with Reap accusing them of acting inappropriately. In response to the police report, it was through the surveillance footage that the incident was confirmed, and the way Kaiser was later identified because the aggressor. The WWE star has yet to publicly comment on his legal situation and has otherwise continued to work as Americano after it was ruled he was free to travel between the US and Mexico.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/article><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marc Pfitzenreuter\/Getty Images The dust has settled on the problems between El Grande Americano Original and El Grande Americano, however the man behind the mask of the latter, Ludwig Kaiser, remains to be faced with charges of battery following an April incident where he allegedly attacked a person in an elevator of an Orlando, Florida [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":352456,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21056],"tags":[4388,2860,871,6742,1210,51342,21043,6719,9305,795,6221],"class_list":["post-352455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-wwe-and-more","tag-battery","tag-case","tag-defense","tag-evidence","tag-files","tag-kaisers","tag-ludwig","tag-motion","tag-obtain","tag-star","tag-wwe"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/352455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=352455"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/352455\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":352458,"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/352455\/revisions\/352458"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/352456"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=352455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=352455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ebiztoday.news\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=352455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
