Ava is used to wrestling fans talking trash, but she says the Charlie Kirk backlash brought a whole different kind of heat.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRrdNxrUtWwThe former WWE NXT GM appeared on The Downside with Gianmarco Soresi, where the conversation turned to a social media post she shared after the Charlie Kirk situation. The message was simple: if you want people to say nice things about you after you die, do good things while you are alive.
That was apparently enough to set people off. Ava said she has been dealing with online hate for years because of who her father is. That part was nothing new to her.
“And cuz the thing is, I was quite used to getting hated on by wrestling fans cuz I was like, ‘All right, whatever. Fine.’ But it was hated on by wrestling, by certain wrestling fans. Yes. Like I’m used to that, blah blah, like shit on me because of who my dad is.”
Then the situation jumped out of the wrestling bubble. Ava said angry conservative men started piling on, and they did not even know anything about her.
“Like they’d be calling me every type of slur, but that’s from wrestling fans. However, there were so many angry conservative men that I was like, you don’t even know who I am. It can be. Yeah. But I was like, you don’t even know who I am. So, yes. But the good thing that did come out of that was that now we’re here.”
That is the part Ava seemed to find wild. Wrestling fans coming at her? Fine, she has heard that before. Random political dudes jumping in just to rage at her? That was a different beast. Ava did not sound scared, though. She sounded like someone who knows the internet is full of people begging for a fight, and this time they picked her because of one post they did not like.
What do you think about Ava’s comments? Should former WWE names speak their mind online, or is politics always going to turn it into a circus? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
