AEW Star Beefcake Boulder Fired Following Arrest For Strangulation

That will be it. There are all kinds of talented wrestlers in the world today, but sometimes something happens to one of them that goes so far beyond wrestling that their talent level does not matter. These things can lead to one of the wrestlers being let go from their contracts with a promotion, which is what has taken place with a now former AEW wrestler following a serious allegation.

According to Fightful Select, AEW has fired Bear Boulder, formerly of the Iron Savages tag team, due to an arrest for battery by strangulation in January. According to PWInsider.com, Boulder was arrested on January 13 in Winter Garden, Florida, with the police report (listed in the second above link) saying that the victim was Boulder’s fiance. Boulder last wrestled for AEW on January 11 at a Ring Of Honor taping.

There is nothing good about that. Check out some better things in AEW:

Opinion: What is there to say about something like this? There is no place for anything like this anywhere and Boulder should not be part of a wrestling promotion after such behavior. AEW did the only thing that they could do here and it is only part of the punishment that Boulder deserves. Hopefully he is able to get control of his anger issues, or this could be a lot worse next time.
