The incident involving Sexy Star and GFW’s Rosemary continues to spark more backlash towards Star. At AAA’s Triplemania show over the weekend, Sexy Star began shooting on her opponents during her match, and she appeared to deliberately injure Rosemary after an armbar submission attempt. Multiple wrestlers in the business have condemned Star, including Rosemary herself. WrestleCade has now pulled Sexy Star from a future convention and has refunded all of those who purchased tickets to meet her. Wrestle Circus has also announced that they do not condone what Star did, and they admitted that she has acted unprofessionally when appearing for them in the past.
