Once known as one of the best in-ring talents of his generation, more recent years have seen Marty Jannetty transition to making some absolutely shocking, ludicrous, or outright hateful comments on social media. And today, well today has seen a troubling Facebook post surface from the one-time Intercontinental Champion.

I mean, where do we even start with this…

In Jannetty’s words, it appears that he killed a man who sexually assaulted him back when Marty was 13 years of age. Not only that, but the former Tag Team Champion also seems to indicate the location of the body.

Going further, Jannetty then insinuates that he’s killed more than one person, launches an attack on a lady who appears to be his now ex-partner, and uses language of a homophobic and racist nature.

The last time Marty Jannetty took to social media in such an eyebrow-raising way, he was asking for advice on whether it would be okay if he slept with somebody who he had just learnt was not his daughter.

If Jannetty’s words here are indeed true, there’s so much of this that needs looking into – and already the Columbus Police Dept. confirmed to TMZ that they “are going to look into this” as to whether they “have any missing persons or unidentified remains cases that match the limited information in the post.”

As one half of The Rockers, Marty proved himself to be a fantastic in-ring performer who was a fantastic audience-connecting babyface. Unfortunately, Jannetty's out-of-the-ring exploits saw him fired from WWE several times over the years, both during his time as a tag and singles act.
