Yabo the Clown faces abuse allegations from former partner

"

Image from Yabo the Clown’s Instagram Yabo the Clown (real name Bob Stolzman) has been hit with serious allegations of violence and abuse from a former partner. A woman who goes by Scarlett Nyx recently shared her account of the years of alleged abuse she said she suffered at the hands of Yabo — who has competed for Juggalo Championship Wrestling (JCW), NWA, GCW, among other promotions — on Facebook. Note: Cageside Seats has not independently verified the documents or accusations made by Nyx, and Yabo has not publicly commented on the matter as of press time. “For years, my family and I tried to appease this person so we could move on without fear. It’s actually one of the scariest things about trauma …..I have lived with constant worry about what his next move would be. My experience with Bob Stolzman, also known as Yabo the Clown, has left lasting impacts on me and my sons that are hard to explain. That experience will never be something I can just forgive and forget,” Nyx wrote on Facebook, adding that she has chosen to speak out after receiving messages from other women alleging abuse at the hands of Yabo. “I was threatened to be ended, almost every other week,” she said. In the comments of one post, Nyx wrote: “To the ones who KEEP TURNING A BLIND EYE In the WRESTLING WORLD —-really? Pro wrestlers have pulled me aside to ask me ‘is he beating you up.’” Among the “evidence” Nyx shared on Facebook is what she said is court paperwork connected to an order of protection case filed in Illinois. The documents detail a range of alleged incidents involving threats, property damage to walls and doors inside her home, and visits from police to the residence. Nyx also posted what she claimed are statements from witnesses to Yabo’s alleged crimes. One of these statements includes descriptions of physical violence that resulted in visible injuries. Other statements were said to be from Nyx’s father, which spoke about fights transpiring during a wedding, and an account from Nyx’s twin sister, known as Michelle Gore, who claimed to have taken Nyx’s children from the residence to shield them from Yabo’s alleged behavior. The Facebook posts featured messages allegedly from Yabo’s phone and social media accounts, as well as photographs that showed various injuries on Nyx’s body that she accused the wrestler of causing. “There is so much more……..the list of things this horrible guy has done to me, is Astronomical! I have videos. Signed agreements. You name it,” she wrote.
