PROGRESS Wrestling has updated their previous statement on their company website revealing that UK stars Ligero and Travis Banks, who were previously suspended indefinitely for accusations of sexual harassment and abuse, will no longer be able to work for the promotion. Both men did release statements of their own denying all accusations, and still remain with NXT UK. Check out the details below.
Further to our statement made earlier today, here is an update regarding specific allegations and current roster members:
David Starr - will no longer be working for PROGRESS
Marc 'Paz' Parry - will no longer be working for PROGRESS
Travis Banks - will no longer be working for PROGRESS
Ligero - will no longer be working for PROGRESS
Jordan Devlin - will be suspended indefinitely // the tag titles have been vacated
Scotty Davis - will be suspended indefinitely // the tag titles have been vacated
We take all these allegations extremely seriously. Those under suspension will have their situation reviewed periodically between now, and events starting again.
We continue to monitor and listen to the Speaking Out movement so that we can take appropriate action where necessary.
