Accusations against wrestler Beau Crockett
Accusations against wrestler Beau Crockett
This post has been updated to reflect an apology posted by Beau Crockett on Facebook.
Stella Grey wrestled with Ring of Honor from 2016-2019 and has been wrestling on the indy circuit since then. On November 30, she made the following tweet that included text messages apparently with a promoter she was working with:
In her texts she discussed behavior that she alleged came from Beau Crockett, who was training her in some capacity at a promotion.
To summarize what she said, Grey accuses Crockett of:
“constantly” hitting on her
asking her on dates and won’t take no for an answer
saying he won’t stop the behavior until he breaks her down
sexualizing training
talking about his sexual prowess and his genitals
saying that she can “use him for sex”
Grey also notes that she has heard from other women wrestlers that Crockett has shown similar behavior towards them.
Before these allegations, Crockett held the Next Up Pro Championship and the Eastern Shore Pro Wrestling Heritage Championship.
Here’s how Next Up Pro Wrestling responded:
I’ve been told that ESPW also stripped him of the Heritage Championship.
Sources close to the industry tell me they are “sickened” by the allegations if they’re true, and it appears more women are coming forward. Here’s just one example:
Crockett has been silent on Twitter since the allegations were made but made an apology on Facebook. The Virginia native has been wrestling since 2012 according to one source. He’s obviously a talented wrestler but his career is in doubt now with these accusations.
