Conrad has been pretty tight-lipped about the situation since it happened. He basically stated Buff showed up and due to disagreements he would not be appearing at future Starrcast events.
A few eyewitnesses claimed that Buff stole one of the money bags and tried to run out with it before security and Joey Janela went after him.

It looks like he has burn marks on his lips so it's definitely possible. Plus his behavior is obviously a little odd. |

Me and my friend were having a conversation with Matt Koon shortly after the incident happened at Starrcast. Although we knew nothing about the incident at the time. Matt was talking to us and said they had "an issue with a guy who's name rhymed with Smuff Smagwell". He didn't give us any details but we quickly figured out who he was talking about. Since then I've heard the same story as everybody else about Buff trying to run off with a bag of money.

That was so sad to see. A few years ago, Buff was going on any podcast that would have him, including Steve Austin, Vince Russo, and Chael Sonnen. I listened to each one and watched the Vince Russo interview, as it was a video podcast. In each interview, Buff detailed how bad his drug problem had gotten and how he had kicked the habit. I believed him. He looked great and he was coherent. After watching that, I think that he has once again fallen to his demons. I hope I'm wrong, but I have eyes.

I think Conrad is sneaky and smarmy and not trustworthy but since it's Buff, Conrad is probably automatically believed. As long as he can give fans podcasts with inside info, he can probably do anything he wants to any lower level talent at his shows for the time being. Not saying Buff is not lying but he has been doing autograph shows for years and this is the first I've heard about him stealing. He is definitely in need of help based on this interview though. It sounds like he's had a lot of drinks prior to the show. He may not be in Sunny realm just yet but it's sad he's still holding on to the gimmick from 20 years ago. I wonder if his mother is still alive and if she ever tried to help him with his issues.

Addicts go through a LOT of money, and Buff hasn't had any kind of a spotlight role in years and years, in wrestling or elsewhere. Is it really that big of a leap of faith that Buff would try to steal the cash if he's desperate? Not saying I think Conrad should never be taken of a grain of salt or anything, but I think people buy the story here because it's pretty plausible. |

If I had to wager a guess I believe Buff felt "ripped off" because people had his pictures without buying them directly from him and tried to "make it right" by stealing a bag of cash.

Buff Bagwell vs. Jelly Janela sounds like incredible match, this could be the build.

Buff is still rocking that goofy top hat from 1999.

It's pretty much industry standard (and I can vouch for Starrcast being this way) that you still buy the autograph, whether or not you use the stuff at the table. If anything, Buff's saving money by not using the photos he has with him. |
