An update on AJ Ferrari.
KOKH FOX 25 reports WWE NIL signee AJ Ferrari is set to appear in court for arraignment on December 6 after a Payne County Judge found the sexual battery case against him has probable cause.
"The court finds that there is probable cause to believe that a crime was committed and that the defendant committed the crime," Judge Thomas said. "The court binds the defendant over for trial court arraignment on December 6, 2022 at 1:30 p.m."
In August, Ferrari was charged with one felony count of sexual battery. A warrant was issued for his arrest on August 3. Bond was set at $25,000. Ferrari was accused of sexual assault by a woman who filed and received an emergency protective order on July 5.
Oklahoma State dismissed him from the wrestling team on July 13. Ferrari was 30-1 in his career at Oklahoma State, going 20-1 and winning a national championship at 197 pounds in his true freshman season. He was 10-0 as a sophomore before a car accident ended his season. He suffered internal damage to his shoulder as a result of the accident.
Ferrari was announced as part of the Inaugural NIL Class in December 2021.
WWE has yet to comment on Ferrari's status in the NIL program.
