“It was an incident with a drunk guy, and I got the worst part of it,” Del Rio said when aked about the incident.
Several conflicting reports bring to question the veracity of the incident. However, the crux of the matter is that in early October, Del Rio was attacked by a knife-wielding homeless man outside a San Antonio restaurant.

While, in one report by MLW Radio, there is no mention of Paige, in others, such as the one by Dave Meltzer, the former Divas Champion is posited at the scene of the crime. According to this narrative, Del Rio took the assailant down while he was still flailing the knife.
At this point, Paige interfered and was shoved by the attacker. Immediately, Del Rio rushed to check on her, leaving the man to flee the site on the former’s car (in some reports, on foot). In a video interview with TMZ though, the former WWE World Champion said that the reason he sprung into action was an insult the drunk had directed towards Paige.
It was an incident with a guy who disrespected my girl. And I was just, you know — I got in a street fight. I got a little bit hurt. (Del Rio)
Suffering multiple wounds on his arm and other parts of his body, Del Rio, or more conveniently, El Patron, was unable to make his flight to the Lucha Libre AAA show he was booked for. Though the disparate accounts put several key facts to contestation, there is no denying that Del Rio was injured and has since, thankfully, recovered.
