No one is perfect in the world, and in the world of wrestling it is no different. When our favorite wrestlers are on top of the world with championship gold it is hard to remember that they are just regular people with a cool job. They make mistakes and then the law gets involved.

The top stars all the way to the bottom of the roster there have been Superstars that have been put behind bars. Most of the time it has to do with driving drunk behind the wheel. Even Hall Of Fame members were not exempt from old Johnny Law.  

When a WWE Superstar gets arrested it is wide spread news. It can affect some wrestlers careers. It can also change the way those Superstars lives their lives. With the recent events surrounding Alberto Del Rio and his girlfriend, WWE Superstar Paige (at this time it is just an investigation but only time will tell if anyone will be arrested for the incident) it is time to look back and see other Superstars who have had run ins with the law.
