The identity of the NXT talent at the center of Keanu Carver’s protection-order case is no longer hidden. Ringside News dug further into the Florida court records and found that Bianca Carelli — better known to WWE fans as Arianna Grace — is the person who filed the petition against Carver, whose legal name is Kevin Robertson.
As Ringside News previously reported, Robertson was ordered to stay at least 500 feet away from another NXT talent and have no contact with that person after a petition accused him of stalking, harassment, repeated unwanted visits and dozens of phone calls following the end of an alleged relationship. The petitioner’s identity was initially kept out of the story, but the additional court records reviewed by Ringside News identify Carelli as the person who brought the case.
The docket shows Carelli’s petition was filed on September 14 and spans 49 pages. A temporary injunction for protection was issued that same day, and court records show Robertson was served with the order on September 16.
Things moved back into court on September 22, and both parties were present for the hearing. Instead of resolving the case that morning, the judge continued the temporary injunction and set another injunction review for October 20, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. before Judge Bryanna Bynum at the Criminal Justice Center in Sanford, Florida.
The revelation that Grace is the petitioner also introduces one very unusual wrinkle to the story. Grace publicly announced her engagement to fellow WWE NXT talent Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo in December 2024, with Ringside News covering the Paris engagement at the time.
That relationship was still being publicly presented as active well into 2026. In March, Ringside News referred to Stacks as Grace’s real-life fiancé while explaining his connection to the BirthRight faction, and WWE’s current Arianna Grace profile still describes Stacks as her “beau.”
That makes the dating claim contained in the protection-order petition a notable piece of the puzzle. The filing alleges that Carelli and Robertson had been in a relationship that recently ended, but the publicly available information does not explain how that timeline fits with Carelli’s relationship with Stacks, whether anything changed privately between Grace and Lorenzo, or whether there is other context that has never been made public.
There’s no reason to fill in those blanks with guesses. What is clear is that Grace and Stacks were publicly engaged, WWE is still presenting them together, and the court petition describes a separate alleged relationship between Carelli and Robertson. WWE even featured Grace alongside Stacks on the September 22 episode of NXT as part of BirthRight, with Grace helping his team during its six-man tag match.
The underlying accusations against Robertson remain allegations and have not been proven in criminal court. The protection order is a civil matter, and authorities have not confirmed that Robertson will ultimately face criminal charges stemming from the claims in the petition. What isn’t in question is who filed the case anymore.
What do you make of Arianna Grace being identified as the NXT talent involved, and what do you think of the unanswered relationship timeline surrounding the case? Let us know your thoughts and feedback in the comments.
