WWE's Stephanie Vaquer has taken to social media to respond to a fan who claimed La Primera was "mean" to them after the person repeatedly tried to get Stephanie's attention following this week's Raw from Madison Square Garden.

The fan's initial X post, which included a video, has since been deleted, and that person's account is now limited to who can view it.

In response to this claim, Vaquer noted that the fan followed her "for a long time, saying hurtful things and making me feel uncomfortable," on what was her birthday. As the current Women's World Champion detailed, she told the fan "no multiple times, and you kept following me and recording."

Via Fightful, the fan in question has since responded with:

"Look let’s get this straight i did not even follow you for a long time I just walked five steps outside and you would just standing there with your friends i do not make people uncomfortable i did not harass you were just standing there with your friends and I asked you nicely.”

This is the latest in a worrying line of "fan" interactions with wrestlers, including one person shockingly grabbing the backside of Liv Morgan at this week's Raw. For years, there have been regular such incidents at airports and hotels, and last year's Clash in Paris saw, amongst other things, security called in after Rhea Ripley was swarmed by "a pack of wild zombies" as she tried to get into an Uber.
