When WWE fired Odyssey Jones following an accusation of domestic assault, the company set a precedent that they would cut ties with someone without a criminal conviction. And while it’s easy to understand why WWE would want to avoid bad publicity, Jones has been very vocal about his career effectively being over despite his claim of innocence.
And now, following the announcement that Nikki Bella is set to return to WWE, Jones has noted the hypocrisy on X, saying, “So it’s not the situation, it’s just the person involved.” Which, for those unaware, is likely referencing the fact that after Bella’s ex-husband was arrested himself last year, he accused his reality star ex-wife of being the true abuser in the relationship.
31-year-old Jones, real name Omari Palmer, decided to try pro wrestling after his football career was cut short following an injury. However, while his time with WWE had mostly been relatively uneventful, it did look like he was set for big things after he debuted on Raw, and Triple H went out of his way to call him a “game changer” on social media. Yet, all the hard work that both Jones and WWE have put into creating a new star would end up going to waste once the allegations were made.
