Following numerous Twitter threats made to Wale by a heckler also in attendance at last night’s (March 31) WWE Raw event, the D.C. rapper reportedly punched the man who sent the series of threats via Twitter.
According to TMZ, a source revealed that Wale was sitting near the announcers when the man he later confronted began taunting him.
“The next thing I know Wale is putting the smackdown on dude. Punched him dead in his face. It was a full fight,” Jawn Murray, TMZ’s source said.
Although the source who witnessed the event says Wale punched the heckler, a newly-released video shows the two men shoving one another.
Additionally, in a post made on Twitter, the man involved in the altercation with Wale revealed that they only pushed one another. He appeared to have made the statement after someone suggested suing the rapper.
The altercation was reportedly broken up by event security, and Wale is said to have returned to his seat.
Yesterday’s incident doesn’t serve as the first time Wale has been involved in a confrontation at an athletic event. In February of last year, the Maybach Music Group emcee confronted NBA commentators at a Washington Wizards game after they criticized the rapper for heckling a member of the opposing team.
“A fan heckling him and supposedly, this fan is a well-known local rapper. Wall-ay. Locally, here,” one commentator said. “Wale is inspiring. I’m sure somebody on Twitter could tell me if they exactly had ever heard of Wale. He’s not Drake, that’s for sure.”

He didn’t even get a punch in they just pushed each other. Wale stays getting his feelings hurt LOL
Whats a black man doing at a WWE event anyway? Was he getting some ideas for the next Rick Ross album?
Black people go to sporting events and white people obsessing over Blaxk music….Go figure.
I wouldn’t call WWE a sporting event.
He is so bitchmade….
I love wale he is one of the best rappers in the game he pretty gangsta wit it too lol
Gangsta as in GANGSTA BOO…nigga is a female.
Yeah those long, perfectly manicured, flowing dreadlocks really scream GANGSTER. He is a fuck boy and that’s that shit I don’t like.
damn twitter aint a game son, wale taking that shit to heart
Smh I wish I could get into a ring with this bitch made nigga. It’d be a one hit ko!
Another button to add to his clown suit…hip hop’s Ronald McDonald…
He probably got called “that rapper who’s not Drake” and lost his mind
and yet another L to his credit lol when will this nigga stop, yo? smh
Poor guy probably just wanted tips on how to grow dreads and maintain them, that’s when Wale got defensive and started scratching him with his French tipped nails.
You woke up chatting about hair and nails? You gotta be a hood chick that get her check on the first.
I don’t care what no one says about Wale, it’s gotta be tough being a 15 year old girl trapped in the body of a 30 year old Nigerian.
That was Tony Yayo, not wale.
We don’t believe you cyber comedian, you still a virgin.
Yayo took more L’s when his boss, 50 isn’t supporting him anymore. Wale and Ross are buddies for life.
Nah, Wale took more Ls. Yayo at least achieved success.
Wale and Ross been buddies for like 3 years
Wale and Ross ain’t buddies, they’re business partners.
partners? LOLOLOLOLOL
Wale is his worker bee
“partners? LOLOLOLOLOL
Wale is his worker bee”
This got to be the realest shit ever written on Hip Hop DX.
Wale dropped more albums on MMG than Yayo has on GUNIT but thats why Yayo is on his Twitter talking about he dont fuck with Snitches no more.
why is anyone talking about tony yayo
That nigga threatened wale’s life.
lolol he threatened to give him the stone cold stunner,
LOOOL,MMG DONT PLAY FOR REAL. WALE SOLO STILL BEAT THE SHIT OUTTA THAT HATER. LMAO
he got one push in before security broke it up, he would have got a beat down like gunplay
This was a pushing match if it was real then soembody would have got stabbed like Murder Inc stabbed 50 at the studio.
like tony yayo stabbed that nigga at the award show for dre
” if it was real then soembody would have got stabbed ”
yeah Whale would have got poked and then choke slammed from the top ropes.
like Big Pun HITTING JAY Z OVER THE HEAD WITH A BOTTLE OF CRISTAL in the club
The legend 50acent confronted Steve Stout at a game and I cheered mightily.
that was at a ball game, i cant respect no nigga going to WWE in his spare time
Grow up nigga, you blog on HHDX in your spare time.
“i cant respect no nigga going to WWE in his spare time”
lololololololololololololololol
Wale needs to get off twitter or grow a pair of nuts.
Wall lay’s signature WWE finishing move would be called the Lotus Flower Bomb, Can you smell what this local rapper is cooking you Jabronis?
yeah twitter is a problem. theyre obviously trolls.
local rappers cant get no respect
Has anybody taken more L’s than Wale? Oh yeah, I forgot, there actually is somebody, his name is Nas.
Wrong.
I went to wrestling one time but it was when it was WWF still and I’m white and was 7 years old.
Ditto man, Junkyard Dog was that dude
he was just there to bond with his white fans
Wale white boy game needs some improvement, he should learn from 50 and just hit up the NASCAR races were you can be sure that you are the only nigga in attendance..
Just like person above me said, if he really wants to connect he might go to some rodeo on Montana or some shit like that
Yeah you guys are right he’s probably just a lame who likes fake wrestling.
Some lames prefer to blog criticize people who watch wrestling which makes them more lame than the people that do.
a wrestling geek caught feelings lololol
White fans who buy all the albums.
Wale is a big supporter of fake shit, wrestling, rick ross, etc..
Rick Ross should be in WWE.
Along with 50.
Wale continues to make black people look bad.
To who? you and other white people? A shoving match at a Wrestling event? Just last week you were bragging about 50 threatening Steve Stoute at the Knicks game and making TMZ.
you gots me confused
Dennis Rodman must have had the day off.
Wale makes Drake look like Rambo.
lmao
Miley Cyrus could bench press Kendrick Lamar.
No, she couldn’t with that anorexic body.
Rozay get your hoe mane.
waleyyyy dohhhhhh?????????
Wale needs to hire a personal tissue carrier to be by his side at all times when things get a lil too emotional for him.
my 9 year old niece is more of a man than Olubowale Akintimehin
His fucking name is Olubowale?!?!?! Not even the blackest person in Africa is called that.
you cant make this shit up
White people are contagious to African names, they prefer for African origin people to have Europeon names, they hate both equally though.
he was there supporting Rozay, he got a double life, he sits on niggas and squashes them in the ring
That song Wale just dropped with Common is FLAMES but WTF that Fat Trel Mixtape shits all over Schoolboy Q and YG!!
yeah right, no ones checking for that fat slob
Fat Trel is not a slob he grew up poor in the slums, his size is genetic not from sloth.
Bullshit. That nigga’s a fat slob.
hes big boned
That’s what all fat people say. The nigga’s fat.
Wow. What a beat down lol Wale looked silly.
Wale: Has another album coming out this year and went no.1 last year.
Tony Yayo: Lazy bum who can’t even get an album out.
Also, Wale donates money to charities all over the world.
Wrong, groupie.
Wale has 1 no.1 album while yayo has 1 flop album.
You got that backwards.
Yayos flop album sold over 800k, more than anything Whale has
Wale is a diva, good thing he only runs up on geeky journalist nerds and middle aged white people. I dare him to step to a nigga like me.
lol word, my nigga? aight then
“That nigga threatened wale’s life.”
WHO THE FUCK WOULD WASTE THEIR TIME DOING THAT? HIS LIFE AIN’T EVEN WORTH THREATENING.
Wale is simp of the year
more like simp of the century
we aint proud
I hope y’all not
Dang, rap really is WWE.
Wale gotta take the L on this one for being at a WWE show in the first place, regardless of what went down.
I agree with this
So 50 goes to Rodeos and Wale goes to wrestling events?
Fiddy goes to Nascar as he sponsors a team but Wale spends his free time watching grown men in tights fake fight each other.
