In what started as a fan casually mentioning they missed the Ring of Honor stable House of Truth – lead by Truth Martini and featuring newly crowned ROH World Champion Jay Lethal, Taeler Hendrix, and others – lead to a huge claim from one of the members. Taeler Hendrix revealed that it was her refusing to have sex with Jay Lethal that lead to her being outed from the company in early 2017.
I don't. it should have been the house of Hendrix. what has truth or jay done ? what do they draw ? being a funny guy with a book…. the other one only talks about his time in Impact copying legends… faaaaarealll bruhhh the legacy is copying legends…. https://t.co/lgHnM9SO9A

Once the cat was out of the bag, Hendrix continued to discuss the allegations against her former stablemate and the situation.
Silence is acceptance that allows a corrupt system to divide & conquer. I don't accept that anymore. Silence is deafening and acceptance is blinding. We deserve better. 💯✌💀

I know this is going to be on wrestling sites. My name is Taeler & this is my statement: attorneys on my behalf have an ongoing investigation. I know I'm not the only one & ppl that have known of this investigation have been supportive. I'll continue to fight for what's right.✌

Let the hate roll in. Doesn't change what happened. I came forward privately long ago & now it's public. If I stay silent I'll be part of the problem. I can't live w/ that. I'll fight for what's right. Threatening me/supposed burned bridges changes nothing. Let the hate roll in.

The 10-year indie veteran made her ROH debut in 2010, as an enhancement talent to the likes of Sara Del Rey and Daizee Haze, before returning for a three year stint starting in 2015. She became the assistant to Truth Martini in The House of Truth, before departing the company in early 2017. Her last match with ROH was a dark match against Jenny Rose in February.
So far, neither Jay Lethal or Ring of Honor have made comment on the situation, but Impact Wrestling’s Sonjay Dutt posted a comment shortly after, which Jay Lethal “liked”, that many assumed was directed at Hendrix’s allegations towards Lethal.
So far, the wrestling fan base has been divided on the claims, with some supporting Hendrix and others claiming she’s just “trolling”. One person who offered support was former WWE Superstar Shelly Martinez, who herself has made claims of sexual harassment (and assault) from her days in the WWE.
