OTT, RevPro & TNT Extreme sever ties with David Starr

This story was updated at 1:20 PM Eastern.

In the wake of indie wrestler David Starr being accused of sexual assault, several independent wrestling companies have stripped him of their titles or announced intentions to not work with him again.

On Thursday, Ireland’s OTT tweeted that their championship is now vacant, RevPro tweeted their Southside title is now vacant, and TNT Extreme Wrestling tweeted they have also stripped Starr (real name Max Barsky) of their title.

A Twitter user named Tori shared her story earlier this week, saying the 29-year-old sexually assaulted and abused her, prompting another woman to share her experience. 

Since the accusation, Starr tweeted several times that he is not a sexual predator, but that he was “an emotionally immature d*ckhead“, denying doing what Tori claims and that he was “an awful partner.” He said if this means the end of wrestling for him, he’s fine with that, but he isn’t going on the offensive. “No matter what I say, I’m the bad guy. No pity party. It is what it is,” he tweeted.
