Top Star Opens Up on Facing Death Threats for Possibly Ending Ex-WWE Champion’s Career, Fans Feel Sorry: “This Behaviour Isn’t Okay”

Even being largely scripted, professional wrestling has recorded several career-threatening injuries happening to its stars. Most of them are accidental but fans’ reaction to them sometimes creates much chaos. Similarly, a WWE SmackDown star is currently going through big trouble for accidentally injuring Big E last year.

This accident happened on the March 11th, 2022 episode of SmackDown when Ridge Holland gave a belly-to-belly suplex to the heavyweight wrestler. The latter’s awkward landing then prompted the WWE officials to immediately rush him to the medical facility. Since then, his fans are awaiting a piece of good news regarding his health. However, the recent update by the 37-year-old came as a disappointment to many. And thus, the repercussions of the accident are now coming to Holland. 

Ridge Holland shared about the threats he received for accidentally giving Big E a career-threatening injury

In his recent tweet, the 34-year-old shared all the negativity he is receiving for accidentally injuring the former WWE champion. Not only does he receive animosity from people, but now his family is also dragged into it.

He tweeted, “Death threats. Threats to my family. Lobbying for me to lose my job. Being labeled as racist. Great stuff keep ‘em coming.”

Even though the wrestler was apologetic about the entire incident since the day it happened, he has been receiving the threats for a year now. No one knows that till when this will go on. However, a sense of relief must have been felt by the English wrestler as fans on the internet showed their support for him. 

Fans came in support of the WWE star against the threats

As soon as Holland tweeted about the threats he has been receiving, the fans over the internet expressed their concern. Not only did they take the side of the blue brand star but also got annoyed with the threat givers. 

The most genuine remarks among those were the same. Fans wanted Holland to just know that he didn’t do anything wrong and that accidents happen in such a physical sport. 

Some of them straight away mentioned that harassing anyone like this isn’t okay, that too based on a match for which both the wrestlers signed up.

Those who comforted Holland virtually are also fans of Big E, but they know how the wrestling industry works and that the former cannot be blamed for the accident. 

So, what do you think? Is it correct what the top WWE star is facing for an incident that happened a year ago? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
