The pro wrestling world works on the honor system sometimes, and that can open people up to getting burned. Sadly, this happened to Grim of Grim’s Toy Show and GTS Wrestling when Justin Credible no-showed a gig after taking his payment in advance.

Grim jumped on Twitter to let everyone know that Justin Credible ripped him off. They paid for him to show up, but he did not. This has happened multiple times. Then Credible blocked Grim on Twitter after he tried to reach him.

Along with screenshots from DM conversations where Justin Credible made excuses for not showing up to gig, Grim posted the following message.

A warning to other promoters: Unfortunately @PJPOLACO scammed me and no showed multiple times for a pre-paid booking. Then he blocked me on everything. I was warned not to work with him but I thought better of him. I was wrong and got beat out of a couple hundred bucks.

This is not a good look for Justin Credible at all. It is also not how a veteran of pro wrestling is supposed to do business. He has been very public about his past issues and seemed to be doing better. Credible also sent out several plugs on social media about taking bookings.

Hopefully, Grim will be able to get his money back. In the meantime, he had to warn other promoters about the risk they take when booking Justin Credible for their shows.

No-showing multiple gigs like this isn’t very credible, is it? What’s your take on this situation? Sound off in the comments!

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
