Nima Yamini is facing potential legal trouble after making what he now describes as a “silly joke” about comedian Matt Rife. Reports indicate that Rife is considering legal action against Yamini for defamation after Yamini alleged that Rife engaged in inappropriate behavior with “Hollywood executives.”
According to TMZ, Rife and his team are weighing their legal options and may pursue a defamation lawsuit against Yamini. Rife appears to be fed up with people using his name to gain attention.
This controversy comes on the heels of Rife’s previous social media missteps. In December, he found himself in hot water after engaging in a bizarre feud with a six-year-old on TikTok. Many criticized Rife for targeting a child unnecessarily and making inappropriate remarks about Santa Claus and the child’s mother.

Matt Rife Weighs Legal Action Against Nima Yamini’s Allegations
The current legal consideration stems from a video posted by Yamini, in which he claimed to have witnessed Rife engaging in questionable activities with Hollywood executives. Yamini alleged that these executives demanded sexual favors from both him and Rife in exchange for fame.
However, Yamini later attempted to clarify his remarks, stating that they were meant as satire. He claimed that the allegations were part of a parody bit on his page, “Alpha King Nima.” Yamini emphasized that he does not personally know Rife and has never been in the same room with him and Hollywood executives.
In a follow-up video, Yamini expressed regret for the misunderstanding and asserted that his content is purely for entertainment purposes. He urged people to stop spreading rumors and lies about Rife, emphasizing that the “Matt Rife conspiracy” is untrue.
Despite Yamini’s attempt to downplay the situation, Rife may still pursue legal action to protect his reputation. The incident serves as a reminder of the potential consequences of making unfounded claims, even in jest, especially in the age of social media.
