WWE News: Former WWE Superstar Boogeyman accepts money and no-shows event
Former WWE Superstar Boogeyman, or Marty Wright in reality, has apparently accepted money from a UK-based independent promotion known as HOPE wrestling and no-showed their event.
Not only that, their desperate attempts to contact him and retrieve the money have also been unsuccessful so far. The following are a series of tweets that encapsulate the communication between Wright and the company:
Well. Sunday came and went. No contact from @realboogey at all. Seems you are nothing more than a thief. @WWE @WWEUK this guy reflects you!

Liar, thief and general low life piece of scum.

Stolen deposit money and too much of a coward to answer us. @WWE Willing to employ a thief? pic.twitter.com/NkR4ZcmdTv
Apparently, Wright then contacted the promotion to come clean, and also promised them money by Sunday. However, when Sunday passed and the money wasn’t returned, the promotion took to social media yet again to express their frustration at the former WWE Superstar, this time, also including a screenshot of their text message conversation.
Marty Wright aka @realboogey. Today is Monday as you can see from your message you had something to do yesterday like pay @HOPEWrestling pic.twitter.com/Auvx46c87y

It is worth noting that Marty Wright isn’t only a former WWE Superstar, but is also signed to them on a Legend’s contract. His last appearance on WWE programming was as a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble in 2015. He was eliminated pretty quickly by Bray Wyatt.
Since he is technically under contract with the WWE, it would be interesting to see if the pro-wrestling powerhouse decides to address this issue.
