Former WWE star and current Ring of Honor Producer Adam Carlson Birch aka Joey Mercury, 39 years old, was released from the Cook County Department of Corrections over the last 48 hours after being arrested over "All In" weekend when authorities discovered an outstanding warrant for his arrest in Orange County, Florida.
Authoriries in Schaumburg, IL confirmed to that Birch is no longer being held at the facility. We have been told that the warrant is in relation to an old "non-violent" issue. The Schaumburg Police Department stated that they “had contact” with Birch at 6:58 AM outside of 50 North Martindale Road, which is the address of The Marriott Schaumburg. PWInsider.com was told that authorities were notified of Birch sleeping in his car outside the hotel. They approached Birch and after running his personal information, discovered he was wanted on the aforementioned outstanding warrant in Orange County, Florida and was taken into custody. He was not charged and will not be charged with anything in Illinois.
Birch had been involved in the planning of “All In”, including helping to put together the pre-show battle royal (one of the best battle royals in years, as it turned out) and work the gorilla position, but after his arrest, others stepped in to handle Birch’s duties.
