Keanu Carver’s WWE run may be finished. The NXT talent has been off television while his protection-order case involving Arianna Grace continues, and now there’s a new claim that people inside WWE believe he could be gone for good.

In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer wrote that Carver, whose real name is Kevin Robertson, may be finished with the company after Bianca Carelli, known in WWE as Arianna Grace, filed for a protection order requiring him to stay away from her and have no contact.

“Kevin Robertson, 27, who wrestles in NXT as Keanu Carver, has been off television and according to those within the company may be gone for good after Bianca Carelli (Arianna Grace, 29) filed an order of protection for Robertson to stay away from her and not contact her.”

Ringside News was not able to independently confirm the accuracy of the claim that Robertson may be gone from WWE for good.

The update comes after the case became much more detailed publicly. As Ringside News previously reported, Robertson is under a temporary protection order requiring him to stay at least 500 feet away from Carelli and have no contact with her.

Text messages were released connected to the case showing Carelli repeatedly telling Robertson to leave her alone, stop coming to her home and respect her boundaries. The exchanges also showed her telling him the relationship was over, while Robertson acknowledged at one point that he knew he was pushing things too far.

That material added a lot more context to the allegations in Carelli’s petition, but the legal matter is still ongoing. The protection order is part of a civil case, and the allegations against Robertson have not been proven in criminal court. Another injunction hearing is scheduled for October 20, 2026, before Judge Bryanna Bynum in Sanford, Florida.

For now, Carver remains off NXT television, and the bigger question is whether he ever comes back. If the latest claim about his status is accurate, this case may have already put an end to his WWE run.
