10 More Wrestling Hoaxes That Fooled The Internet
5. Various Wrestlers Caught In The Fappening
The leaking and spreading of personal information, documents or photos of any individual is a deeply despicable acts at the best of times. But the unleashing of what appeared to be a rather unsettling amount of deeply private and personal images of some of WWE's brightest stars in the thick of the infamous Fappening hacking event in 2017 brought out some of the darker sides of the wrestling fanbase.
With many of those supposed supporters being all too quick to click on and spread these apparent images of the likes of Big E, Summer Rae, and Alexa Bliss - despite them very much being fake - these WWE names were forced to take to social media to deny their appearance in the revealing images.
For disseminating this nonexistent nonsense, I pray the inside of your thighs chafe bloody every day of your existence. Amen. https://t.co/qjoISr5TVj— Ettore “Big E” Ewen (@WWEBigE) March 20, 2017
As they say, dont believe everything you see on the internet. There's people out there with a lot of time on their hands & a big imagination— Summer Rae (@DanielleMoinet) March 19, 2017
Once again, the risqué photos on the Internet supposedly of me are bogus.— Lexi Kaufman (@AlexaBliss_WWE) April 28, 2017
With WWE star Paige genuinely having her phone hacked a few years back and subsequently having a number of images and videos leaked onto the Internet, it goes without saying that attempting to pull off this disgraceful act again and fool fans into thinking more stars had had their personal lives exposed on a global platform is about as cruel and horrendous an act there is.
