NightMoves Founders Inducted Into The AVN Hall of Fame

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: January 2, 2026 

(TAMPA BAY, FL) From NightMoves Magazine and Awards Founder Paul Allen:

2026 started off with a bang here at NightMoves as Tracy (Allen) and I received word on New Year’s Eve that we are being inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in Las Vegas on January 24, 2026. We are honored and excited to be included and proud of what we have accomplished in our 36 years in the industry. Being recognized by AVN is amazing.

After handing out thousands of awards throughout the years to actors, actresses, directors and companies, it is a fantastic feeling to be receiving this award! This will be the second Hall Of Fame that we have been fortunate to be a part of, as XRCO (X-Rated Critics Organization) inducted us into their prestigious ranks last year.

We want to thank a few people who helped make this happen: Mr. Art Koch (who has been a part of NightMoves since the beginning and is a video reviewer, XRCO Hall of Fame and voting member at AVN), Mr. Axel Braun (a great friend, industry legend and NightMoves supporter), Mr. Mike Moz (who started in the industry with NightMoves and today is a huge part of Vixen Media), Mr. Dirty Bob (another amazing friend who has been a part of the NightMoves Awards since our second year and is on the AVN staff), and of course Mr. Peter Warren and everybody at AVN who helped make this happen.

We are being inducted into the “Founders Branch” along with Mr. Steven Grooby. Grooby is a company founded in 1996. It has been named, “One of the most popular adult industry companies in the world”, according to AVN Business. We are also going in with Samantha Lewis & Joone from Digital Playground. DP has been called one of the five biggest porn studios and was described by Reuters as one of the handful of studios that dominate the porn industry. It is an honor to be mentioned with these pioneers. We are looking forward to attending the 2026 AVN Awards and seeing many of the people we have met and worked with in the past and hopefully again in the future.

Special thank you to our wonderful staff: Tom Peak, Lenny Mumbles, Art Koch, Olivia Pearl along with our contributing writers Miles Long, Moutasem Seyam, Tanya & Pam, Kelly Johnson & Richard Kent. I also want to thank these people who are no longer with us – Andrew “Rock” Serra, Christopher Blue and my father Paul Cianci. Thank you to everybody who has supported NightMoves both locally & nationally!
