The Lowdown
Lisa Ann is revisiting her 2024 removal from a Matt Rife show. Her new posts allege a setup; screenshots she shared show Rife disputing that account. Here are the posts, her interview and the original context.
Key Takeaways
- The X posts are from Nov. 7, 2026; the interview clip was posted Nov. 6.
- Rife’s sarcastic reply is a rebuttal, not an admission. No Kendra Lust-authored reply is shown.
- The Radio City incident happened Feb. 4, 2024. TMZ reported her release without a charge or citation.
The Full Story
Lisa Ann has revived her dispute with Matt Rife. In posts shared Saturday, Nov. 7, she alleges that he arranged her removal from his Radio City Music Hall show on Kendra Lust’s behalf. The material does not establish that allegation.
Her first post declares “Case closed” and includes text slides saying “I WAS SET UP in 2024.” She presents the later Instagram exchange as proof. Rife’s replies in the screenshots reject that explanation and blame her conduct at the venue.
One reply sarcastically imagines being too nervous to perform for her, then adds, “whatever you need to tell yourself.” Its wording about having her arrested is part of that mocking rebuttal—not a literal confession.
The second post shares the Instagram screenshots. One shows Rife tagging Lust and writing “i rest my case.” None of the eight images shows a comment visibly authored by Lust; other people referring to her response cannot supply her actual words.

In the Veterans Minimum excerpt below, Lisa Ann denies using her phone and claims Rife continues to tell audiences about the incident. “He should get a new act,” she says. That account of his performances has not been independently confirmed.
The 2024 Context
The underlying incident took place in New York on Feb. 4, 2024—not this weekend. TMZ’s report at the time described her removal in handcuffs and said she was released without a charge or citation.
An NYPD statement published by OutKick said officers responded after a woman was told not to videotape inside the venue. Police described her as disorderly and combative. Lisa Ann disputed the phone-use allegation then and repeats that denial in the newer interview.
The renewed exchange shows that the disagreement continues. It does not resolve who ordered her removal or substantiate a coordinated setup.
