The wife decided to cut off the Wi-Fi because she didn't want him talking to kids online. He might've been in an 18+ game but the wife thought he was there to creep on kids and got a TV allegedly thrown at her for it.

She told police she came downstairs and found Griest was talking to young kids online on Fortnite. She did not want him to have contact with the children because he is a registered sex offender, according to the affidavit. The wife then cut off the Wi-fi, which caused Griest to throw the television at her.

Fourth-ish paragraph. That's what she told the police.
