Kongo Kong, most recently known for his time in Impact Wrestling, was accused of assault by wrestler Kyle Boone.
Boone says that Kong took a rib way too far. Kongo was angry at Boone for under-selling a chokeslam. After the match, Kong confronted him backstage. He told him that he needed to “show me your dick, or give me the money you made off of your merch.” Boone reluctantly did both after Kong said the former wasn’t good enough. Boone recalled having to get down on his knees and beg for Kong to give him his merchandise money back.
Kong responded and admitted that all this did happen. He explains that the rib was meant as a joke the entire time and it was a product of how the industry was back then. He was under the impression they had gotten over the situation together and moved on. He wasn’t aware of the long term scarring he had caused and sent out a sincere public apology.
since then and up until now gave no indication that there was any animosity between us as it was all hugs and smiles, that I knew of. We've even worked together since then, at my request and you were taken care of during said matches. If I had any clue that you felt like that,

then I definitely would have squashed it then. As I told all of you young ones I only pick on people I like and see something in. Again, never my intention to hurt or scar you by any means and I sincerely apologize. I hope we can hash this out between us like adults.
