One such backstage altercation happened in 2016 between Sin Cara and Simon Gotch in the WWE. The Mexican star reportedly got the better of the former WWE NXT Tag Team Champion.

Aiden English appeared on the latest episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling’s UnSKripted and talked about the fight involving his former Vaudevillian partner.

Simon Gotch and Sin Cara were both released from the WWE in 2017 and 2019, respectively, and the two apparently didn’t get along with each other.

Aiden English revealed that he wasn’t backstage when the fight transpired as he was near the ring chatting with a few friends. English recalled the WWE show happening in Tuscan, Arizona, where the scuffle took place in the catering area.

English said he remembers being surprised upon seeing Simon Gotch approaching the WWE doctor’s office with ice on his face after the brawl. After inquiring with a few people, English was told that Cara and Gotch got into an argument, and fists flew from both ends.

English also confirmed a long-running rumor that a soda can was thrown during the fight. As reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter several years ago, Sin Cara flung the unopened soda can at Simon Gotch at the WWE event.
