Forcing a 17-year old to make out with him:

I had a similar experience at a show when I was 17 with him as well. He kept begging me to go into a dark corner to makeout and mess around. Apparently no to him meant “lets keep trying to pressure her into it”.

Forcing himself on a girl at a wrestling show:

Trying to keep this anonymous because frankly, I'm terrified of the fall out. What happened to me was no where near the catastrophic levels of abuse my fellow women have uncessarily suffered, but I needed to share my story. #SpeakingOut pic.twitter.com/OKS1ZA47IM

I do believe people are capable of change. But REAL CHANGE TAKES TIME. I dont believe it hasn’t happened again in this time span. I’m complicit and filled with shame but will walk through the fire and stand with #JoeyRyan accusers for those who aren’t ready. pic.twitter.com/UNkf8DiwE8
