Statement about the incident at WWE’s house show. 

Over the weekend, WWE ran a house show out of Peoria, Illinois. As the Karrion Kross versus Drew McIntyre match was taking place, an audience member threw her drink at Scarlett. Said individual and her family were removed from the arena by security. 

The Peoria Civic Center gave a comment to CIProud.com which reads as followed:

We are aware of the incident that took place at the WWE event on Saturday, November 12. Fortunately, our Peoria Civic Center security team along with the Peoria Police quickly identified the individuals responsible and escorted them out of the building for the remainder of the show. While we were disappointed in the actions of a couple and the brief distraction they caused, over 4,000 enthusiastic WWE fans were treated to a very entertaining event.

Scarlett did not file any charges and no arrests were made.
