Shiloh Hill reveals police contacted WWE over viral TikTok series

NXT wrestler Shiloh Hill revealed that the Orlando Police Department contacted WWE to inquire about his viral TikTok series, ‘Shoeman’. The project, which garnered approximately 500 million views within its first three months, featured Hill testing apparent bloodstains on shoes he claimed to have purchased from the dark web.

Due to the nature of the content, police reportedly received hundreds of calls daily from concerned viewers regarding Hill’s wellbeing. This led authorities to contact WWE under the assumption that the series was a professional wrestling storyline. WWE officials clarified that the project was entirely unrelated to the company.

Hill noted that the viral attention resulted in significant personal consequences, including being doxxed and having his home address leaked online, which ultimately forced him to move houses.
