Taryn Terrell Announces Retirement From Pro Wrestling

Taryn Terrell is retiring from the world of professional wrestling.

On Wednesday, Terrell took to her Instagram account to announce that she is retiring from the business after returning last year for the NWA. She wrote,

“In my career, I often have not been able to be the first to “break my own news”. At every company, it makes it to the public before I was truly ready to say anything. Anyhow, I have decided that it is time to officially hang up my boots…forever. It’s so bittersweet. NWA gave me a wonderful opportunity to manage. The problem is, I can’t be beside that ring and find happiness. I love the ring. Being inside those ropes and connecting with the humans in the crowd fuels me. There’s no place like it. Therefore, I asked for more. They gave me more and gave me really fun matches share I had complete, creative freedom. I was able to tell stories the way I saw them. I am grateful to Billy for allowing me a place to create and relive the moments inside that ring.

I knew I was ready to be done but I also knew I wanted to feel the rush of having a match again! Billy gave me that. But the truth is, it’s fine to say goodbye. I love entertaining and fully intend to continue that in the way of stunts

Thank you to Billy for the fun, last year and half. I wish you and NWA the very best. Thank you to Pat Kenny, the one and only Simon Diamond, who constantly reminded me to believe in myself.

To all the girls I’ve grown close to and the rubber duck clan, I freaking love y’all and I will be cheering you on as y’all continue to kick ass!”

The National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) took to Twitter to wish her the best. They wrote,

“@IAmTarynTerrell — We’ve all loved watching you shine both inside the NWA ring and alongside it. You will be missed!! Wishing you nothing but the best on the path ahead…”

NWA Star Taryn Terrell Joins Sex Abuse Lawsuit Against South Florida Biltmore

NWA star Taryn Terrell has joined a lawsuit against the Miami Biltmore, alleging that she was sexually abused while staying at the hotel by Biltmore massage therapist Oscar Ojeda. Terrell indicated she joined the lawsuit due to allegations against Ojeda, who has been accused by three other women, as it continues to grow.

“I think the fact that this continued to happen is just gut-wrenching,” Terrell said in an interview with NBC Miami. “I may be a wrestler, I may be a stunt woman, I may be all of those things. But at the end of the day, I am a human and I deserve the same respect and decency that every other human deserves, and when someone invades your intimate private space, it’s not OK.”

Terrell and her husband had stayed at the Biltmore in August of 2020 for a weekend getaway. Terrell went to receive a massage from Ojeda, when she says the assault took place.

“I froze in fear,” Terrell recalled. “I wish I was one of those people who said I stood up and I said ‘this is not OK’ but I was terrified. In the moment that everything happened I was so mad at myself that I couldn’t even say to him to stop doing what he was doing.”

The Biltmore has previously claimed they were unaware of the allegations against Ojeda and fired him upon learning of the allegations. Terrell and the other women in the lawsuit claim they brought their accusations to the Biltmore, and nothing was done. Instead, she was offered a free massage.

“I used my voice afterwards because I didn’t want it to happen to anybody else,” Terrell stated. “And it did and it happened and I feel so sick to my stomach. They didn’t make me feel like going to the police was a thing.”

Terrell and the other complainants are represented by Adriana Alcalde and Eric Baum. Ojeda, who has pleaded not guilty to the charges, is due back in court in December.

Taryn Terrell Gone From Impact Because She Can’t Get Into Canada

Taryn Terrell

It was reported last week that Taryn Terrell was pulled from the Knockouts title match at Bound for Glory and that she was done with the company. According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the concussion story from TV (which took her out of the match) is a cover. The real story is that Terrell cannot get into Canada, and with the company shifting TV tapings for now into Canada, as well as Bound for Glory, it made it impossible to use her going forward. This is similar to Jim Cornette’s departure from the company. The split was said to be amicable on both sides.
