Having become the first WWE star to openly come out (and inspiring an oddly unimpressed shrug by Shawn Michaels in the process), Darren Young was always going to clash with the company when they decided to tour Abu Dhabi in February. There might be something natural about the relationship between country's penchant for excess and the WWE, but the archaic treatment of homosexuals is inhuman. Sadly for Young, his questioning of the decision - and criticism that money rules all for the company - rubbed someone up the wrong way and was deleted shortly after posting. The Excuse/Apology https://twitter.com/DarrenYoungWWE/status/565311155879809025 If, as the tweet response implies, someone leaned on Young to delete his comments because of some business motivation it's pretty unforgivable, but it's not entirely unexpected. Inevitably the company issued a statement saying WWE "fully supports Fred Rosser's right to express his views on personal social media accounts rather than WWE's corporate platforms." But not all views, eh? Frankly, the follow-up tweet, which remain undeleted, is probably more damaging to the company than the original.
