Former WWE Diva Ashley Claims She Was Sexually Assaulted At Military Base During WWE Trip

Ex-WWE wrestler Ashley Massaro claims she was sexually assaulted in ’06 at a U.S. military base that WWE sent her to visit … and in new docs filed, she says the company convinced her to keep it quiet.

Massaro filed documents this week to join the head-injury lawsuit that now includes over 50 former WWE employees, and in it mentioned a horrible incident in Kuwait as proof of their negligence.

Ashley claims the assault happened while she was in the Middle East on a WWE sanctioned trip with Maria Kanellis, Jimmy Hart and Ron Simmons. This was not for Tribute to the Troops.

According to the docs, “Upon her return to the United States, she was seen by Dr. Rios who interviewed her about the incident. Dr. Rios reported the incident to WWE executives who soon thereafter met with Massaro to apologize for their negligence but persuaded her that it would be best not to report it to appropriate authorities.”

The lawyer adds, “This incredible situation derives from the WWE’s employment misclassification scheme wherein the WWE (deems itself) neither responsible for Massaro’s safety (despite being on a WWE tour in the Middle East) nor does the WWE deem itself responsible to report or collect data about incidents such as this. The WWE in order to protect its public image and insulate itself from paying for its injured workers prefers to remain silent.”

Before leaving for Kuwait, Massaro gave a now heartbreaking statement to WWE’s website. “Anything can happen going over to the Middle East, but my company takes care of me, and I trust them. I have full faith that I will come back exactly the way I left, if not a little bit better in the heart.”

WWE ‘Exiles’ Sin Cara After Chris Jericho Fight

As noted, Sin Cara and Chris Jericho were involved in an incident on the WWE tour bus this past weekend as the RAW crew traveled from Leeds, England to Glasgow, Scotland. The scuffle started when Jericho confronted Cara, who was annoying the rest of the bus by making noises, and ended with Jericho biting down on Cara’s hand.

It looks like anger management classes aren’t the only form of punishment Cara will receive as he’s been “exiled” to the SmackDown side of the current European tour, according to PWInsider. At one point Cara was going to be sent home from the tour but at the last second, officials reconsidered and “exiled” him to the blue side of the tour.

Hulk Hogan Responds To Recent WrestleMania 33 Tease From Brooke Hogan

We noted before that Brooke Hogan recently told TMZ Sports that people from WWE were calling Hulk Hogan about a possible appearance at WrestleMania 33 in Orlando next year. You can see Brooke’s comments in the video below.

The Hulkster made an appearance on Eric Bischoff’s new MLW Radio podcast, which you can listen to at this link, and dismissed Brooke’s comments. Hogan said:

I know if I don’t bring it up nobody will. So anyway, Brooke’s running around on TMZ and made the statement about me and wrestling and WrestleMania. For the record, she needs the big boot to the head. I haven’t talked to anybody about WrestleMania. I just need to put that to rest. I asked Brooke, “What are you doing?” She goes, “Oh, well, I’m just starting it up.” I said, “Thanks Brooke.” It was kind of funny. I said, “No harm. No foul.” It was all in good fun.
