WWE has issued a statement regarding a zero-tolerance policy for domestic violence, child abuse, and sexual assault amidst public allegations.

Individuals are responsible for their own personal actions. WWE has zero tolerance for matters involving domestic violence, child abuse and sexual assault. Upon arrest for such misconduct, a WWE talent will be immediately suspended. Upon conviction for such misconduct, a WWE talent will be immediately terminated.

WWE’s ability to fine, suspend or terminate a WWE talent will not be, however, limited or compromised in any manner in the event incontrovertible evidence of such illegal misconduct is presented to WWE.

Earlier today, WWE performers Jordan Devlin, Ligero, and a lawyer representing Matt Riddle issued denials regarding allegations against them.
