As the Massachusetts Gaming Commission continues its investigation into the suitability of Wynn Resorts keeping its eastern casino license, Gov. Charlie Baker said the regulators should be considering forcing the removal of Steve Wynn's name from the $2.4 billion gambling facility going up in the Boston area.

"I certainly think that's one of the things that should be on the table, based on their findings," Baker told reporters on Wednesday.

He added that the five-member Gaming Commission is doing the "right thing" in doing a "deep dive" into Wynn Resorts.

The commission has broad authority to revoke or suspend the Wynn Resorts license, or issue a fine.

Casino mogul Steve Wynn stepped down from his company on Feb. 6, after the Wall Street Journal published an extensive report alleging decades of sexual misconduct and a $7.5 million settlement with a manicurist.

Gaming Commission investigators said the settlement was kept from them during their initial review of Wynn and the company, undertaken before commissioners handed over the lone eastern Massachusetts casino license to them in 2014. Nevada regulators are also looking into the company.

Wynn has denied the allegations.

The Associated Press reported this week that a woman told police that she had Wynn's child after he raped her. Another woman said she was pressured into resigning from a job in Las Vegas after she refused to have sex with him, according to the AP, which obtained recently filed police reports.

"Obviously the allegations from the beginning, all of them, have been horrifying and incredibly disturbing," Baker said Wednesday. "And I think many of us said from the first time we heard the first allegation that it was important for the Gaming Commission...to act accordingly. And I'm glad they're moving quickly on this."

The commission has not provided a timeline for when their investigation would wrap up.
