Raging pro wrestler Jim "Sandman" Fullington was sent back to the slammer yesterday after his criminal past prevented his arraignment in Yonkers court.
Fullington is charged with felony assault and criminal mischief after a glass-throwing melee Sunday night at a birthday bash for pro wrestling icon Capt. Lou Albano at La Lanterna restaurant.
He pleaded guilty in the 1980s to two robberies in Pennsylvania, records show.
The convictions forced the judge to kick the arraignment up to a superior court, so Fullington, 45, was sent to jail for a fourth night to await today's scheduled appearance in White Plains Superior court.
