Last Friday, it was reported that Top Gun: Maverick star Miles Teller had been assaulted while on vacation in Hawaii with TMZ reporting that the actor had been punched in the face by a man who confronted him in the restroom.
Pat McAffe saw the report, so he shared a clip featuring a joke about the incident on WWE SmackDown on Twitter writing “WOW Miles Teller didn’t even eat a shot that hard”. Miles saw that joke and did not like it.

“I got jumped by two guys in a bathroom,” Teller wrote. “Never met them before in my life but ya cool wrestling segue bud.”

According to TMZ, Teller was assaulted while at Monkeypod Kitchen on Maui, which was reportedly a dispute that Teller owed money for his 2019 wedding in Maui.
“The story reported about Miles being punched in the face by @TMZ over ‘money’ is completely false,” Sperry wrote. “Miles was jumped by 2 men we have never met after they trapped him in a bathroom.”
