ROH Launches Investigation Into Abuse Allegations
ROH booker Marty Scurll is amongst the accused.
Ring Of Honor has announced it has begun an internal investigation into allegations of sexual abuse made against its talent as the #SpeakingOut movement progresses.
The promotion released the following on Thursday, stating that it will provide further updates in due course:-
"At Ring of Honor, we pride ourselves on the respectful and inclusive environment we have built, one that ensures all employees can work in a place where they feel safe and respected.
We take these matters extremely seriously and have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to this type of behavior.
Ring of Honor has launched an immediate investigation into the claims made against its currently contracted wrestlers. We will update you on our investigation once it concludes."
ROH's head booker, Marty Scurll, has been the subject of multiple allegations through all this. He has since released two separate statements after being accused of sexually abusing an intoxicated 16-year-old girl in his native United Kingdom in January 2015.
ROH is currently dormant as a result of the ongoing global health crisis, having not run a single show since things kicked in in March. The promotion had planned on holding empty arena TV tapings in Baltimore, Maryland next month but has now put this on hold.
