9 Wrestlers Who Pissed Off The Locker Room
1. Jaxson Ryker
Social media can be a wonderful tool for a professional wrestler.
Through it, stars can directly engage with their fans and even use it as a way to further certain feuds which are taking place on television. However, trying to get your gimmick over on Twitter by using tragic real life events as a platform is never going to go down well with your peers.
That's exactly what went down when Jaxson Ryker posted his support for President Donald Trump and the way POTUS dealt with the recent riots which took place in the wake of George Floyd's death on Twitter. Kevin Owens, Mustafa Ali and Ricochet all openly criticised Ryker's tweet on the platform and the performer was swiftly taken off WWE television - along with the Forgotten Sons as a unit.
It's still unclear whether Ryker's tweets were from his own point of view or his character's. But, either way, the star quickly p*ssed off a number of WWE's current key players and will likely not make the same mistake of promoting his on-screen persona off the back of sensitive genuine events any time soon.
