To elaborate on it further, but in his own style, he later shared a link on Twitter to address the staggering total of $360 million he made. In a tweet that was linked to TwitLonger, Trainwreck mentioned that his response on his claim was enclosed within. But to everyone’s surprise, the link basically contained a YouTube video, featuring the ending sequence from The Dark Knight movie by Christopher Nolan.

The idea behind sharing this link was probably that Trainwreck wanted to, indirectly, show the criticism against him in a lighthearted manner. Moreover, it implied that Tyler was also a silent protector, similar to how Gordon describes Batman in the movie’s very last moment. Sharing this tweet was clearly to convey to others that he doesn’t take anyone’s criticism seriously, especially for his gambling streams.
