Okay, so this is wild. Apparently, a 52-year-old former wrestler who also makes YouTube videos got arrested – along with someone else – for stealing over a grand’s worth of wrestling action figures! Seriously, who steals toys? It’s a crazy story, and I’m honestly shocked. I always thought those figures were valuable, but not *this* valuable, apparently.
Professional wrestling has a huge and dedicated fanbase, and over the years, fans have collected a vast number of wrestling-related items.
Similar to popular collectibles like Pokemon cards and video games, wrestling figures can be very valuable, and unfortunately, this has led to some instances of theft.
On October 2nd, the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department searched the home of Brittany Gomez, 36, and Miguel Dominguez, 52. They are suspected of stealing over $1,000 worth of WWE action figures from Walmart and Target stores.
WWE YouTuber faces felony charges for action figure theft
Police searching a home discovered hundreds of stolen WWE action figures, many still in their original packaging, piled high from the floor to the ceiling, according to EWrestling News.
The items seized included wrestling gear, rings, and merchandise that officials suspect were meant to be resold for profit.
Miguel Dominguez, who goes by TheGizmo619 online, is well-known in the world of internet wrestling. He has a popular Instagram account with over 20,000 followers, though his YouTube channel is no longer available.
People familiar with the online community have pointed out that photos of the house taken by the police match the room seen in earlier videos posted by TheGizmo619.

Honestly, what blew my mind the most about all of this is that the guy is 52! That’s what fellow collector Nick Storm Review pointed out, and he’s totally right – it’s incredible.
Gomez and Dominguez were arrested and booked into the Vista Detention Facility, facing serious theft charges. These included grand theft, having stolen property, and stealing merchandise worth more than $950.
Officers found this while investigating a series of thefts at stores in the area.
HSTikkyTokky, a popular TikTok creator, was recently arrested in early October after being on the run for a year. He originally failed to appear in court regarding a dangerous driving incident where he totaled his $300,000 McLaren. He isn’t the only social media personality to face legal issues this month.
