Ludwig Kaiser (El Grande Americano) Battery Arrest in Florida Update – Alleged Victim Obtains Attorney

As noted before, WWE and AAA talent Ludwig Kaiser, also known as El Grande Americano and real name Marcel Barthel, was arrested on charges of battery this past May following an altercation with a man in Orange County, Florida. This incident was caused after Kaiser and a female were allegedly acting “uncontrollably intimate” in an elevator and Kaiser attacked the man in retaliation after being allegedly told to “please have some manners.” Kaiser’s motion to be allowed to continue to travel for WWE both within the United States and internationally was approved this past May. Rumors of Kaiser attacking the man after he had made ICE comments directed at his significant other was believed to have been a planted story within WWE.

Fightful’s Jeremy Lambert reported that recent court records indicate that a Notice of Appeal was filed on June 11 entering attorney Darrin Chambers as counsel for the alleged victim.

Chambers works for NeJame Law in Orlando, Florida, and is a trial attorney focused on civil litigation and personal injury. The law firm describes Chambers as “Darrin brings a unique and powerful perspective to the courtroom, with nearly six years of experience defending insurance companies, combined with extensive jury trial experience as a Public Defender. His background gives him a deep understanding of both sides of the legal system — insight that helps strengthen advocacy for our clients. A proud U.S. Navy veteran and Valedictorian of Barry University School of Law, Darrin is recognized for his discipline, preparation, and commitment to taking cases to trial when it matters most.”

Kaiser is currently scheduled to attend a pre-trial court hearing on July 16th in Orlando.
