Former WWE Superstar Once Again Accused Of Inappropriate Behavior With Underage Boys
Last week Dave Meltzer mentioned in a installment of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that former WWE Superstar Orlando Jordan has been living in Australia since 2012, and has been working primarily for Battle Championship Wrestling. Meltzer also went on to note that he has not been getting many bookings with promotions outside of Battle Championship Wrestling, saying that “Most promotions there won’t use him.” While nothing has been confirmed regarding why Jordan has been having such a hard time finding work, it should be pointed out that the former WWE and TNA wrestler is no stranger to rumors, scandals and allegations.
Reports were flying around the time of his release from WWE back in 2006, that Jordan had allegedly been bringing a 16 year old boy with him to Live Events. Scandal followed Jordan to TNA, where while working for the company there was an incident involving Ric Flair in 2010. The story there goes that Flair confronted Jordan’s boyfriend at the time, at a bar where in front of several other members of the roster. It was reported that Flair was upset because the wife of a major company executive was also at the bar when Jordan’s boyfriend did something Flair deemed inappropriate and lewd. Flair also stated that he felt Jordan’s companion had no place in the locker room.
The most recent set of accusations were made by fellow Australian professional wrestler Karl Infirri, who claimed that former WWE Superstar Orlando Jordan had asked some of the underage backyard wrestlers to go with him to the zoo, to dinner, and to the movies. Infirri went on to say that he had screenshots to prove the allegations that Jordan had made inappropriate advances towards underage boys.
