Pro Wrestling Sheet has confirmed police dropped the investigation into sexual assault allegations made against former WWE star Enzo Amore due to insufficient evidence.

Amore -- aka Eric Arndt -- released a statement from his lawyer on Wednesday saying:

On January 22, 2018, Eric Arndt (also known as Enzo Amore for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE)) was accused, via the internet and social media, of misconduct during an alleged incident in Phoenix, Arizona, several months earlier. Prior to that date, no law enforcement or any other officials had contacted Mr. Arndt regarding such claims. However, after the careless, unfounded tirade on social media, Mr. Arndt learned of these accusations when his counsel reached out to Phoenix Police. Subsequently, and as evidenced by the vast amount of online admissions and other publicly available information, it was soon clear that the accuser exhibited a complete lack of truth or credibility. At all times, Mr. Arndt fully and unequivocally denied such accusations and remained confident in clearing his name.

As we previously reported, Enzo was allegedly released from WWE not because of the incident ... but because he failed to alert higher ups at the company before the investigation was made public.

Enzo's statement continues:

The Phoenix Police Department recently informed Mr. Arndt and his counsel that there is insufficient evidence in this matter to warrant any criminal charges, that the matter will not be transferred to the County Attorney for prosecution, and that their investigation and case is closed. No charges were ever filed. The matter is closed.

Mr. Arndt expresses his gratitude for the enormous amount of support from his fans and followers during this time period. The support has carried him through these events and opened his eyes to the faith and loyalty of those who have cheered and followed his career. This experience has further taught Mr. Arndt to be cautious with his personal associations, because false, defamatory, and unfounded accusations can alter and impact the lives and careers of the falsely accused and their families. Mr. Arndt is working diligently toward his next venture in the entertainment industry and looks forward to reconnecting with his fans in a big way in the very near future.

As we previously reported, investigators were awaiting lab results from tests given to the victim after she made the claim. A rep for the Phoenix Police Department confirmed Enzo's statement is accurate to Pro Wrestling Sheet. The case has officially been closed due to insufficient evidence.

They said that if new evidence is presented to them, however, it could always be re-opened.
