Back then, he must not have been the grown person that he is today after becoming a dad and now his wife, Tay Melo, has come to his defense by pointing out some of the facts on social media.

Guevara appeared as a guest on The Whole F’n Show podcast on January 25th, 2016. During his conversation on the show, he spoke about visiting the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. He was mesmerized by Sasha Banks’ beauty and instead of a decent way of expressing his feelings, he stated the following,

“Bro Sasha Banks, oh my god. When I was at WWE the other week I just wanted to go f*cking rape that woman.”
