As previously noted, Nash Carter (now wrestling as Zachary Wentz) of MSK was released by WWE just days after him and Wes Lee regained the NXT tag team titles at the 2022 Stand and Deliver PLE. Carter, who was released shortly after a photo was published by his wife of him dressed up as Adolf Hitler, issued a statement regarding the matter.

AEW World Champion MJF, who has come to Carter’s defense in the past, issued the following statement on Monday via Twitter…

“Part 1. Everyone’s afraid of talking honestly so I will. Zachary Wentz isn’t a antisemite. I lived with him. The fact he’s not on TV right now because a girl (who got caught lying about abuse) couldn’t handle a break up and posted a photo of him doing something in jest is wild.

Part 2. When a wrestler who shall remain nameless keyed my car and called me a kike, Zachary went out of his way when everyone else turned a blind eye to check in on me. The court of twitter can sometimes get dirtbags out of our industry. But the court isn’t always right.”
