He was locked up for five years – after prosecutors asked for 30 years.

The Californian, who most recently fought for Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide, had already said he took full responsibility for his actions.

Ahead of sentencing, he told the The Kyle Kingsbury Podcast: “From what I can say as far as myself, the way that I handled things, that was not the way to do it.

“We cannot put the law in our own hands.”
