• Keanu Carver Released From WWE

WWE NXT wrestler Arianna Grace (Bianca Carelli) has gone to court in Florida to secure a restraining order against coworker Keanu Carver (Kevin Robertson), backed by pages of text messages showing her begging him to stay away.

Following her petition, a judge granted a temporary stalking protection order, with a formal court hearing scheduled for later this month.

According to text messages obtained by TMZ, Grace repeatedly told Robertson she had no interest in dating him, directly warned him that showing up at her home late at night was completely out of line, and cautioned him to go away or she would reach out to third parties for help.

In an update from PWInsider, Keanu Carver has been removed from WWE’s internal roster and has been released from the company.

• Samoa Joe Landed A Big Role The Same Day WWE Fired Him

Samoa Joe shared the story of how his second WWE release in early 2022 quickly turned into a major opportunity.

Speaking with Pastor Craig Altman at Grace Family Church (where Joe has been a member for 18 years), the AEW star recounted the rough stretch that led to his exit. After a concussion ended his in-ring WWE run and shifted him to commentary, he was released, then rehired into a corporate/backstage role, only to be let go again weeks later amid corporate changes.

He came home and told his wife, “I got fired.” Her response: “It’s alright. God’s got this. We’re going to be fine. We prayed on this. It’s going to work out.” Joe said he had grown into a place of confidence and believed her.

Four hours later, a friend he hadn’t spoken to in about 15 years called. The contact told him about a new Peacock series and asked him to send an audition tape, saying he thought Joe was the right guy for the job.

Joe landed the role of Sweet Tooth (the physical performer, with Will Arnett providing the voice) in Twisted Metal. He walked back into the room and told his wife he was now starring in a TV series. Her reply: “I told you it would all work out.”
