4. WWE No Longer Offering Contract To A Wrestler Who Was Accused Of Sexual Harassment
WWE has been strict about the sexual harassment accusations against their talents. Jack Gallagher, Ligero and Travis Banks have already been released by the company due to the allegations against them.
It’s rumored that more releases will be coming soon. Former NXT North American Champion Velveteen Dream’s name is highly rumored to be fired soon.
Jon Alba is reporting that WWE was planning to sign a new wrestler, but they pulled the offer after he was accused of sexual harassment.
“I’ve heard from multiple sources about WWE pulling a contract offer from a top young talent involved in the recent string of sexual allegations that have come out about pro wrestlers. Obviously a situation the company (and everyone) has to take very seriously.
Since I’m seeing some misunderstanding this:
This is NOT someone currently under contract. Someone who was supposed to be signed and brought into NXT.”
