TOP WWE STAR ALMOST ARRESTED IN BRAZIL

Chris Jericho was "nearly" arrested today following WWE's live event in Sao Paolo, Brazil. Jericho, trying to get heat during his match with WWE champion CM Punk disrespected the Brazil flag, kicking it.

Authorities present at the event were upset and at one point, it appeared Jericho was going to be taken into custody, but cooler heads prevailed and he was not charged.

WWE is leaving Brazil and heading for Ecuador right now. Tonight's show was the first live event for the company ever in Brazil. We are seeking a complete live report.
