# New Jack: Assault with a deadly weapon

Using blunt implements to beat your opponent senseless is a wrestling trope, but when you start using bladed weapons that's crossing a line.

During a match with an indie wrestler in Florida, New Jack inexplicably began to stab his opponent with either a knife or a sharp bit of metal, depending on which version you believe. Fans were stunned and the poor victim was taken to a hospital. New Jack was charged with assault and held on bond, but the victim chose not to press charges so long as New Jack trained him and took him on tour.

New Jack agreed, but as soon as he was released from prison he ran for the state border--without the man he'd agreed to train.
