Rosemary Comments On Being Injured By Sexy Star; Cody Rhodes & Others Sound Off

UPDATE:

Rosemary has taken to Twitter to address the situation with Sexy Star, writing this statement:

TNA IMPACT (4/18/2024) Results: System vs MCMG, Hammerstone vs Guido, Nic Nemeth, Rosemary, More

Let me make this perfectly clear: if you take liberties with someone's body when they are giving it to you and trusting you to keep them safe, you are not tough. You are an asshole. And you don't belong in this business.

Sexy Star decided to do just that this weekend at Triplemania. And while I have remained quiet on social media until I was more calm to address the situation, I have now been informed that she is telling people that it is a work. You are all now being informed that Sexy Star is a liar. She was a liar in the locker room when she was forced to apologize and instead cooked up some bullshit excuse that she "didn't know" and she is a liar now. You know if you are torquing on someone's arm. You know an arm bar is a real and dangerous hold.

The only reason your face is not broken right now is because a little voice inside my head as I lay on the apron kept repeating, "Don't go to Mexican prison." (Thanks, Demon)

However, turning to positives: the outreach from the wrestling community has been incredible. I'm overwhelmed with how much love I feel right now from friends, fans, and people I have yet to meet in this amazing business. We are a family and we protect our own. If you violate that, you are not welcome here.

I also want to thank the AAA locker room. Multiple people came up to me saying how sorry and disgusted they were. Thank you Hamada and Shani, who also had to deal with bullshit from Star during that match. Thank you, Vampiro, for professionally trying to calm a volatile situation, though, as you know, once the excuses started pouring out of sexy stars mouse in lieu of an apology, it was over.

Thank you to the amazing GFW locker room, both present that night and not. I have so much support from everyone, and talent, crew and office have all reached out to show me that.

Some, including Cody Rhodes and Brian "Road Dogg" James, are effectively trying to blackball Sexy Star.

 

ORIGINAL:

Saturday night, at the end of the Reina de Reinas women's championship Fatal 4-Way match, current Champion (and former Lucha Underground Champion) Sexy Star won via armbar submission on former TNA/GFW Knockouts Champion Rosemary. After Rosemary tapped out, Sexy Star kept the submission on, cranking it even harder, and apparently popped Rosemary's arm out of joint.

Sexy Star was made to apologize to Rosemary before she was allowed to leave the arena, and in a bit of good news, the injury to Rosemary's arm does not appear to be as serious as originally feared, and she may be out for only about a month.

There is some debate as to whether Sexy was "shooting" on Rosemary--deliberately trying to injure her--or whether it was just a reckless wrestler being unsafe.

Here is the finish of the match. You decide what you think happened:

Regardless of whether or not it was intentional, one of the most unimpeachable tenets of professional wrestling was violated last night--in a match, each wrestler puts their safety in the other's hands and trusts they will not be injured, either by malicious intent or reckless endangerment.

The overwhelming response on Twitter from other wrestlers is that Sexy Star violated that trust.
