Ludwig Kaiser Argues WWE Travel Is Essential To Keep His Job Amid Battery Case

TLDR

Ludwig Kaiser's legal team has filed a motion seeking permission for out-of-state and international travel while his Florida misdemeanor battery case continues, arguing that travel restrictions could affect his WWE employment. The motion states that Kaiser, whose real name is Marcel Barthel, "is an international performer who is required to travel throughout the United States and around the world to remain employed." Kaiser has entered a not guilty plea in the case stemming from an alleged April 23 incident at an Orlando apartment complex, and has remained active on WWE programming under the masked El Grande Americano character.
