Dirty and Desperate! The Fall of Wrestler Andy Dalton

(Note: this is about independent wrestler Dirty Andy Dalton, not the NFL quarterback with the same name)

For over a decade then DFW independent wrestler "Dirty" Andy Dalton was making a name of himself in the Texas indy wrestling scene with his old school brawling style. He made few spot appearances at Ring of Honor, MLW, and WWE as well a tour in Japan.

Then came his downfall in June of 2020. The wrestling scene have their #SpeakingOut moment and Andy Dalton became one of many named with multiple allegations. Each allegation against him reveals a disturbing pattern of him being abusive and manipulative towards women. The abuse in forms of emotional and sexual with threats of violence. Another post feature a text screenshot of him being very unappropriated to a minor. He sealed his fate admitting to the allegations and screenshots that got posted thus blackballing him from wrestling scene as feds immediately cut ties from him. You think it was over, but no, it was just the beginning. Reportedly a week or two after #speakingout he made calls to promoters trying to get a spot when feds want nothing to ever do with him. He tried to return to the ring wearing a mask hoping no one would notice him, but not one fed would bite. At live AEW taping there was third party account of him trying get welcomed in the wrestling circle while being there as a paying fan. He was burying and talking trash towards talent behind their backs. Very recently on his Twitter he insulted AEW newly signed woman wrestler Athena. On another post he disrespected the recently retired and former MPX owner Steven Kirby. It drew a giant blow back against him that he set his Twitter account to private. Dalton was desperate to get himself back into wrestling when no one wanted him to ever step back in the ring. Then he somehow pulled a wool over everyone.

He convinced a wrestler to give him a match in Alabama. The wrestler thought he was doing him a favor. Once video footage from the match made rounds the wrestling community appalled how a fed booked him on a show as well someone wrestling him. He posted a bloodied picture of himself from the match, not only put himself over, but it pretty much mocked everyone that told him he's done from the industry forever. Despite the negative response the fed shockingly didn't care if they booked a guy who should never be in the ring ever. Meanwhile his opponent of the match received a huge backlash that he announced he's stepping away from the ring and who knows if he will be back. It sucks because his opponent is good guy that made a mistake.

Dirty Andy Dalton, despite being a good in-ring wrestler, is a dirtbag behind the curtains. Once got outed he desperately and selfishly tried to get back in the wrestling industry when 99.9% refuse to go near him. Once he got that .1% to get him back in the ring he caused more damage just like he did to those women. One wrestler said it at best. He's a parasite. Dirty Andy Dalton you can go fuck yourself.
