Indeed, it is another battle of words between two wrestlers on Twitter that is gaining a lot of attention. It all started with Bagwell joking around in one of his tweets about “Control Your Narrative” where he said he was going to join the promotion but then said that he was joking.

Braun Strowman, who started the promotion along with former WWE Superstar EC3, was not pleased.

This started a Twitter battle between the two wrestlers where Strowman highlighted some of Bagwell’s legal altercations. Bagwell responded in kind by bringing up some legal trouble Strowman got into as well prior to his stint in WWE.
