NXT UK superstar Jordan Devlin issued a statement on his Twitter addressing the recent abuse allegations made against him yesterday evening. The former cruiserweight champion completely denies the claims, and assures fans that he will be getting involved with a legal team.
I didn’t even want to address the hurtful allegation made against me, but for the sake of my followers and friends on this platform that may for whatever reason be unsure, I’m going to address this once. The recent allegation made against me is completely and utterly false and I deny it entirely. This is a case of a malicious personal agenda being executed against me on the back of a very brave telling of true experiences by other women. I completely denounce it. This is all I will say on the matter, and I am now working with a legal team to help decide how to proceed from here.
Despite Devlin’s statement, PROGRESS Wrestling has stripped him of his title and suspended him indefinitely. WWE is also personally investigating the matter.
