TEDDY HART RELEASED FROM JAIL

By Mike Johnson on 2020-04-03 18:23:00

Edward "Teddy Hart" Annis was released from Richmond City Jail in Virginia this afternoon.  Records indicate that he was released following a court order.  PWInsider.com is working on additional details.

Hart was arrested on Thursday afternoon 3/26, his third arrest in six weeks in the State of Virginia.  The victim in the case was named publicly as Manic, who Hart had been dating off and on for several months.  Prior to Hart being arrested yesterday, Virginia-based independent wrestler Ace Montana posted a video on his Facebook page where he exits a house, telling someone (believed to be Manic) to lock the door behind him.  After exiting the house, he confronts Hart, warning him that the police have been called and that "she would be pressing charges" while threatening Hart that he needed to leave.   In the video, Hart denied ever touching Manic before heeding Montana's orders and leaving the immediate premises.

Montana wrote the following blurb for the video: "I literally had to pull my gun on #Teddyhart ?? and throw him out of my friends house?. This piece of sh** literally choked out and physically assaulted Maria Manic and would not let her get help. she texted me I’m in danger never ever did I think I would meet a piece of sh** like this guy who has now been arrested with a felony against him. I don’t think this guy knew how close to death he was. #f***youteddyheart This video is me kick[ing] him out before the cops came and arrested him???." Note - PWInsider.com has censored the expletives from the original post.

Manic came out publicly to state that she does not wish to file charges against Hart and that she feels the entire situation has been blown out of proportion.  It may be that led to his release.

Hart had initially been held without bail in advance of a June court date.
