James Ellsworth Accused of Sending Photos of Underage Fan

James Ellsworth’s WWE run may have been short, but the drama that followed him is anything but forgotten. After debuting on the July 25, 2016 episode of RAW as an enhancement opponent for Braun Strowman, Ellsworth briefly became a fan-favorite underdog. WWE even signed him to a deal—but by November 7, 2017, he was released.

Since then, he has bounced around the wrestling world, including an appearance at Impact Wrestling’s Bound For Glory where fans loudly rejected him after expecting Chris Jericho. What’s resurfacing now, however, has nothing to do with in-ring reactions—it’s far more serious.

Over the past few days, a disturbing accusation has blown up online involving a 16-year-old wrestling fan on James Ellsworth’s WWE run may have been short, but the drama that followed him is anything but forgotten. After debuting on the July 25, 2016 episode of RAW as an enhancement opponent for Braun Strowman, Ellsworth briefly became a fan-favorite underdog. WWE even signed him to a deal—but by November 7, 2017, he was released.

Since then, he has bounced around the wrestling world, including a polarizing appearance at Impact Wrestling’s Bound For Glory where fans loudly rejected him after expecting Chris Jericho. What’s resurfacing now, however, has nothing to do with in-ring reactions—it’s far more serious.

Over the past few days, a disturbing accusation has blown up online involving a 16-year-old wrestling fan on Twitter known as @Kliqkid, real name Kenzie. She publicly claimed she had “dirt” on Ellsworth—before dropping what she says actually happened. In her words, “he had been sending me nudes of himself.”

Kenzie also shared a screenshot from a DM conversation with someone she described as a female wrestler, who allegedly claimed Ellsworth has caused issues in locker rooms around the world. According to the screenshot, the unnamed wrestler told her Ellsworth has “been a problem in locker rooms over the world.”

These allegations, if true, would involve criminal behavior. While the accusations haven’t been independently verified, the content presented by the teen has fueled serious concern from fans and wrestlers alike.

Ellsworth has not issued a public response at the time of writing. This situation is developing, and Ringside News will continue to monitor it closely.
