In a significant development within the wrestling world, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has officially released wrestler Bear Boulder, whose real name is Thomas Wansaw, following his recent arrest on charges of battery by strangulation. This arrest took place in January and has now led to his termination from the company. The arrest details indicate that Boulder was involved in a domestic incident that resulted in the charges being filed against him. AEW made the announcement of his release public, confirming his absence from future events. A spokesperson from the organization stated, ‘We are committed to maintaining a safe environment for our talent and fans, and we take any allegations of misconduct very seriously.’ This incident has sparked conversations within the professional wrestling community about the importance of accountability and the implications of such actions on one’s career. Bear Boulder, who was relatively new to the AEW roster, has not made any comments following his dismissal from the company. The wrestling industry is closely watching how other organizations respond to similar situations, potentially influencing policies and practices moving forward.
