According to F4WOnline.com, Gregory Helms has been pulled from more than just Sunday’s Royal Rumble lineup.
At press time, the word was that in addition to being removed from the advertised card for the pay-per-view, Helms will also not be attending television this week.
Helms has been implicated as the primary wrongdoer in an alcohol-fueled incident that led to he and Chris Jericho getting arrested for public intoxication last Wednesday. While most wrestling sources say the entire situation was blown out of proportion, Helms caught a wave of bad press from TMZ-fueled reporting, which initially held that Helms struck Jericho, another man and a woman in a cab prior to running away from the situation.
Reports later clarified that the crowd in the cab was “play wrestling,” but the publicity damage had already been done.
