Things have gotten downright hostile between some of the cast members from the VH1 reality television show "Black Ink Crew."
TMZ reports that Puma is accusing Ceaser and Dutchess of orchestrating a physical attack on his wife, Quani, at the New York City premiere of the movie "Central Intelligence" two weeks ago.
Dutchess and Ceasar admit to being at the premiere, but their version of events is quite different. They claim Quani started the brawl by hitting their intern with a folding chair, "like some WWE shit."

The fight left both women battered and bruised as you can see in the photos up top.
TMZ confirms that the intern has filed a police report.
The beef between Puma and Ceaser dates back a couple of years and reached a boiling point when the two came to blows on last season's finale of "Black Ink Crew.".

TMZ recently caught up with T.I. to discuss the shooting incident involving Troy Ave that occurred during his Irving Plaza concert in New York City on May 25.
Tip didn't want to get into specifics about the case, but he did offer his support to Troy, who is currently locked up on charges related to the unfortunate situation.
"I got a lot of love for Troy. I think that he has enormous potential," Tip said. "I know he has his own relationship with God. All he gotta do is keep God first and he can pull through it. Sometimes things involve situations that go beyond what the eyes can see. For things like that you gotta step out on faith. Him being able to do that, that will make a difference."
A video has popped up on the internet showing Kat Stacks getting her hair pulled and spat on by a woman abuser.
Kat, real name Andrea Herrera, has been open in the past about being involved in prostitution as a teenager. She claims to be out of that life, but this footage suggests she is either with a gorilla pimp or involved with a man that enjoys beating up women.
Neither scenario is a positive one.
Kat responded to the video via her Instagram page.
"Obviously I didn't hit him back because I didn't want him to crash the car and try to kill me like he had in the past." her IG post read. "He likes to speed the car and say 'I'll kill both of us' blah blah. I was trying to calm him down."
"I'm too old to have a Pimp. What I look like selling pussy and giving my money to a nigga so he can take me shopping with my own money," she continued on Twitter. "A Nigga can beat me up . But if a hoe step to me Ima drag yo ass . Check my criminal record . I got a fighting charge."

Aswe previously reported, Troy's friend and bodyguard, Ronald McPhatter,lost his life when gunfire erupted backstage at aT.I.concert on May 25. Three others were wounded, including Troy, who suffered a gunshot to the leg.
Troy, real name Roland Collins, is seen on surveillance footage firing a weapon, but NYPD believe both he and McPhatter were shot by someone else prior.

Leemon will ask that his client be released on bail during a hearing this week.

Iggy Azalea has called off her engagement to Nick Young.
The 26-year old rapper made it official via an Instagram post on Sunday, June 19.
“Unfortunately although I love Nick and have tried to rebuild my trust in him – It’s become apparent in the last few weeks I am unable to,” she wrote. “I genuinely wish Nick the best. It’s never easy to part ways with the person you planned you’re [sic] entire future with, but futures can be rewritten and as of today mine is a blank page.”
The ending comes just under three months after a video of Young admitting to cheating on his former fiancee leaked. The footage was recorded by Young's Los Angeles Lakers teammate, D'Angelo Russell.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — LeBron James cradled the shiny gold trophy and struggled to sum up what might be his sweetest championship yet, the one he is so proudly bringing home to his native northeast Ohio just as he promised to do when he returned to the Cavaliers two summers ago.
James and his relentless, never-count-them-out Cavs pulled off an improbable NBA Finals comeback, and Cleveland is title town again at long last.
Unfazed by the criticism and chatter all series, James delivered on a vow to his home state and brought the Cavs back as they became the first team to rally from a 3-1 finals deficit, beating the defending champion Golden State Warriors 93-89 on Sunday night to end a 52-year major sports championship drought in Cleveland.
"I'm happy to be a part of history," James said, then added, "I'm home. I'm home. ... I'm at a loss for words. This is unbelievable."
In a testy series of blowouts — and a few blowups — the winner-take-all Game 7 providing the thrilling finale with James as the finals MVP disarming two-time reigning MVP Stephen Curry and his record-setting Warriors.
James almost single-handedly carried the Cavs back into this series and finished with 27 points, 11 assists and 11 rebounds as the Cavs captured their first championship in franchise history and gave their city its first major sports winner since the Browns won the NFL title in 1964. He also had three blocked shots and two steals, overcoming five turnovers.
"CLEVELAND! This is for you!" James bellowed in his postgame interview before being announced as finals MVP.
An emotional James fell to the floor when this one ended with a second win in six days on Golden State's imposing home floor, surrounded by his teammates. Only seconds earlier, he went down in pain with 10.6 seconds left after being fouled by Draymond Green while going for a dunk, then came back out to make the second of two free throws.
After four successful seasons in Miami, James came back to the Cavs and vowed to win the title this franchise and championship-starved city so coveted.
Cleveland did it after a coaching change, with Tyronn Lue taking over in January for the fired David Blatt.
"We made history tonight," Lue said. "Cleveland, Ohio, we're coming back, baby!"
Green had 32 points, 15 rebounds and nine assists, but the Warriors' record-setting season ended without the only prize this close-knit "Strength In Numbers" crew cared about from way back in the beginning — through the record 24-0 start as Coach of the Year Steve Kerr was out, Curry's second consecutive MVP campaign, and the 73 regular-season wins to break the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls' mark.
They might always be remembered as one of the best teams ever that couldn't close it out.
The Cavs staved off elimination twice to force Game 7 back at Oracle Arena, where the Warriors went up 2-0 with a pair of lopsided wins to start this series.
This marked the first NBA game decided by five points or fewer since May 11, Golden State's 125-121 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers in Game 5 of the second round.
With its 100th postseason victory, Cleveland became just the fourth team to win an NBA Finals Game 7 on the road.
Curry scored 17 points on 6-for-19 shooting, while Splash Brother Klay Thompson added 14 points while making 6 of 17 shots.
