Instead,<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/search?q=%22Don%20Callis%22&amp;src=trend_click&amp;vertical=trends\" rel=\"nofollow\"> Callis\u2019 name began trending <\/a>after some fans resurfaced a 2019 rumor involving an alleged sexual harassment investigation within Impact Wrestling\u2019s management. While no names were officially confirmed and no findings were made public, speculation online quickly linked the incident to Scarlett and Callis.<\/p>\n<p>Back in 2019, reports claimed that \u201ca top management official\u201d in Impact was investigated for \u201callegations of sexual harassing a former talent\u201d and allegedly using contract extension clauses to force NDAs. One accuser reportedly received their release without an extension. The story went nowhere officially, but fan gossip has kept it alive for years.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, Scarlett made it crystal clear she and Kross wouldn\u2019t return to Impact, telling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/watch\/live\/?ref=watch_permalink&amp;v=975570963078375\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">fans during a virtual signing<\/a>, \u201cWe\u2019re never going back to Impact. Never.\u201d That hasn\u2019t stopped Twitter from tying the old rumor to the idea of her joining AEW \u2014 especially with Callis still in a prominent role there.<\/p>\n<p>The speculation comes at a complicated time. TNA, now under Carlos Silva\u2019s management, has a working relationship with WWE through a talent crossover deal. There\u2019s no verified evidence linking Scarlett to the 2019 investigation, but social media\u2019s already running with the theory \u2014 turning her AEW prospects into one of wrestling\u2019s hottest debates of the day.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s clear that Scarlett\u2019s WWE exit isn\u2019t just sparking interest in where she\u2019ll wrestle next \u2014 it\u2019s reviving old whispers that never truly went away.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think Scarlett will steer clear of AEW because of this fan speculation, or could she still make the jump despite the controversy?
