Book Claims AEW Executive Experienced Inappropriate Behavior From Dave Lagana

Matthew Randazzo author of “Ring Of Hell” claims that a senior AEW executive had a run-in with Dave Lagana during his time in WWE. Lagana was a booker for NWA, WWE, ROH, and TNA wrestling. 

Randazzo claims he has heard from more than 10 sources about the incident involving a current AEW executive. He says he has reached out to AEW’s for corroboration but got no response.

(2 of 2) I will not share senior AEW exec/Lagana story because involves vulnerable 3rd party.

Reminder 1: I have no personal opinion; just reporting from 10+ sources.

Reminder 2: I originally wrote book to call out systemic culture of abuse and exploitation…13 years ago.

Since Ms. Savage is being publicly challenged, I will take the extra step of contacting @AEWonTNT and requesting the executive in question confirm or deny his run-in with Mr Lagana.

if what I’ve been told is true, I hope he speaks up in support of Liz and all victims.

NWA announced last week that Lagana resigned after the allegation from Liz Savage.

Pursuant to allegations made by pro wrestler Liz Savage on her Twitter account, 6/18/2020, NWA VP David Lagana has resigned his position, effective immediately. As well all production of NWA content is temporarily halted, pending a restructuring of executive management positions.

Well here’s my #SpeakingOut which happened when I moved to California for wrestling. Essentially this was a big part of why I took my hiatus. pic.twitter.com/oetOYaVPxD
