~~Edit: Just a quick note, tho I know not many probably hit the Nitter link and scrolled down to the further replies as of yet, but for the warning: Amale has included photo's of herself in a reply to the tweets I linked above showing the physical injuries she sustained to her back and face supposedly cause by Tristan, for those who do or don't want to see em).~~

Edit: She has clarified:

'Please guys read my testimony before sharing the pictures. As I said theses pictures are the physical consequences of extreme stress, anxiety, eating disorders this whole situation created on my physical health. It is so strong it makes parts of my face swollen and red patches all over my body. It is not from physical abuse as I said on my testimony.'

Tristan Archer is apparently a big name in the Europe (specifically French) wrestling scene so this is making some big waves over there.

I actually enjoyed watching Archer live several times now in wXw, but I hope he's facing all possible consequences now, legally and from an organizational point of view.

I'm not really into the European scene as I just experienced some wXw events in the last couple of months whenever they were in town, but wXw is very open about that there is no place for racism, sexism etc. in their shows. There's a special announcement every time before the show starts.

For wXw at least, I bet he's history now, and I believe that means something for Archer's possibilities in participating in events in the European scene in future.

All the best for Amale. I hope she is able to get everything in order, mentally and physically.

Come discuss pro wrestling! Any company or era is welcome.

1. Be Civil.

Users are expected to be civil and inclusive towards one another at all times. Remember the person on the other side of the screen. Hate speech, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia and other inflammatory language is prohibited.

2. Keep content related to wrestling.

Any content posted should at least be related to pro wrestling somehow.

3. Spoilers.

Do not spoil events for people. If an event is going on, please keep discussion contained to the/a discussion thread for 24h after the event. Do not post spoilers in titles during this period. Use the spoiler function when you need to, it's there for a reason. Should your post involve a url to a spoiler (Twitter, YouTube video, etc) please mark the thread as NSFW as well so thumbnails are blurred.

4. Vague/Editorialized Title.

Please keep the titles of any articles you post clear, understandable, and indicative of what the article states within. It's ok to alter the title if the original is clickbait and confusing, or contains a spoiler like a debut that just occurred that day, but do not add your own thoughts to it.

5. Sexualized Content/'Plot'.

Please do not post any pornographic, 'creep shot', or similar adult-related material to the community (regardless of connection to wrestling). Wrestling content that involves sexualized content (in storylines/matches/promos) is fine, as well as photo's wrestlers post to their own social medias. Butt-shots you take with your cell phone at a house show aren't.
