Joey Ryan Fired From Job At Disneyland

IMPACT

Pro wrestler Joey Ryan found himself working a day job at Disneyland’s Jungle Cruise ride after struggling to find work in the wrestling industry.

At least he did for three months in a probationary status, until Disneyland declined to hire him as a full-time employee. The LA Times reported on Wednesday (June 29) that Ryan (real name Joseph Meehan) was no longer employed by Disneyland.

Per LA Times:

“Mr. Meehan is no longer employed by us,” a Disneyland spokesperson said, declining to elaborate on why he was not given a permanent job and whether the harassment allegations played a role in that decision.

This news comes just days after a photo of him working on the ride went viral on social media.

In the summer of 2020, as part of the ‘SpeakingOut’ movement, Ryan was accused of sexual assault and harassment by numerous women. He was fired from his contract with IMPACT Wrestling and he hasn’t wrestled since the early summer of 2020.

Joey Ryan who in June 2020, was accused by several women of sexual misconduct during the #SpeakingOut movement, causing him to be released from Impact Wrestling is now working as a cast member on the Jungle Cruise ride at @Disneyland.
