TMZ.com is reporting that former WWE and WCW star 2 Cold Scorpio aka Flash Funk (Charles Scaggs) was arrested on June 15th 2024 for stabbing a man during a gas station fight. The incident was said to have taken place at a Love’s Travel Stop in Kansas City, Mo and Scaggs is claiming that he acted in self defense. Scaggs, who was working as a security guard at the store, said he saw a man lighting up a cigarette inside of the establishment which the man denied.

TMZ described what happened next…

“Scaggs stated he told the guy he couldn’t smoke inside, but then claimed the man became upset … and said, ‘F you the f*** you gonna do?’ Scaggs said the man then threatened him … and when the two eventually made their way outside of the store — he claimed the guy tried to grapple with him. During the scuffle, Scaggs told authorities he pulled a knife from his pocket and stabbed the guy in self-defense. The wrestler said the altercation went on for several more moments — and in the squabble, he got in a few more stabs too.

Cops say when they arrived on the scene, they found the guy who was stabbed lying on the ground … bleeding from his head, chest, buttocks, legs and abdomen. They added that he was transported to a local hospital … as he was going in and out of consciousness. According to the docs, though, investigators were able to make contact with him at the medical facility later in the day … where they say he told them Scaggs was the aggressor in the situation.”

Scaggs is facing two felony charges – one count of first-degree assault and one count of armed criminal action. According to court records, Scaggs bonded out and pleaded not guilty to the charges. Scaggs is due back in court for a hearing next month.
