ROH Ring Crew Worker, Former WWE Referee Sent Home After Making Advances At A Female Talent

Source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter via WrestlingINC

Ring of Honor employee Kevin Keenan, who did some refereeing and worked the ring crew, was fired this past weekend after allegedly making advances at a female member of the roster. Keenan previously worked for WWE as a referee but was released in 2009.

The night before after the TV tapings in Nashville, some of the wrestlers, crew and staff went out for food and drinks. This is when Keenan made the alleged advances, which apparently included spanking her rear end, and it was clear to people there that the un-named female roster member was uncomfortable. People reportedly told Keenan that his behavior was unacceptable and he left the establishment they were at with a few other people.

ROH officials were told later that night and booker Hunter Johnston (Delirious) reprimanded Keenan the next day in front of the ring crew, officials and roster members. Johnston reportedly told Keenan that his actions were not acceptable in the ROH locker room and wouldn’t be accepted in any other locker room. Johnston then told Keenan to gather his belongings, leave and to not come back. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter was told that Keenan will no longer be used by ROH.

Latest On AJ Styles To WWE, Major Bullet Club Angle At NJPW Show, Rumors of more NJPW Talent Leaving

AJ Styles who is rumored to have given his notice to New Japan Pro Wrestling for a WWE main roster spot, has been pulled from advertising from several Ring of Honor shows, including the ROH 14th Anniversary PPV.

NJPW ran a angle where Bullet Club member Kenny Omega turned on AJ Styles after they defeated Shinsuke Nakamura and YOSHI-HASHI. the rest of Bullet Club including Karl Anderson & Doc Gallows also turned on Styles.

After the beatdown by the Bullet Club, Styles got to his feet and bowed to the crowd it what really seemed like a farewell for Styles, who has competed in NJPW since 2014, and took leadership of the Bullet Club after Finn Balor left.

 

Wrestling Observer Radio reports that there were also rumors that Rocky Romero and Tama Tonga may be leaving NJPW as well, but there is no word on if they have given their notices. Tonga is the son of legend Haku/Meng.
