Wrestler Shannon Moore was hurt Sunday morning in a wreck in Spring Lake.
The wreck happened about 2:30 a.m. on Bragg Boulevard, Spring Lake Police Chief A.C. Brown said.
Moore, of Moore County, works for Connecticut-based World Wrestling Entertainment.
Moore, 25, was headed north on Bragg Boulevard when a car struck him head-on, Brown said. The other driver, Dale Fellows, was traveling south in the northbound lane, lawmen said.
Brown did not have further details about the wreck. There was some confusion over whether Spring Lake police or Fort Bragg military police were handling the accident and charges in the case, Brown said.
As of Wednesday afternoon, a Fort Bragg spokeswoman said, Spring Lake was handling the charges and the accident report.
No charges had been filed against Fellows as of Wednesday afternoon.
Gary Davis, a WWE spokesman, said Moore was hurt in the wreck. He said he was taken to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center, where he was treated and released. Davis said he suffered minor injuries but had no broken bones.
"He's at home recuperating and doing well," Davis said.
Moore was on his way home to Moore County when the wreck happened, Davis said. He had been with friends at the WWE "Raw!" show at the Crown Arena before the accident.
Moore was expected to take part in Wrestlemania 21 in Los Angeles next weekend, Davis said, but that is uncertain now.
"Usually all of the talent comes out and we'll take his situation day by day," Davis said. "It depends on if he feels up to it and can travel."
