WWE Stars 'Black Out' Their Social Media Accounts
Wrestlers lost their matches at Extreme Rules and went dark - literally.
Two WWE wrestlers "blacked out" their Twitter accounts after Extreme Rules on Saturday, leaving black profile and cover photos: Seth Rollins and Liv Morgan.
Both superstars lost their matches at Extreme Rules, with Morgan losing her SmackDown Women's Championship to Ronda Rousey, and Rollins losing his Fight Pit match against Matt Riddle.
It's not unheard of for a superstar to deactivate their social media accounts or "go dark" for a period after a big loss. Often, it's in keeping with their character and might indicate a change in direction.

In losing to Rousey, Morgan passed out with a creepy smile on her face, as if she was enjoying the pain. She later was found backstage in a WWE digital exclusive hiding "in the shadows of the arena."
It's way too early for speculation, but that's really the fun part here, so let's just point out that Bray Wyatt's return has sent fans into overdrive with fantasy booking. One of the theories tossed around is that Wyatt will not be alone, but will be leading several other superstars. The White Rabbit videos left various clues, and fans are already poring over Bray's return for additional breadcrumbs.
One thing is for sure: It's likely not an accident that both wrestlers lost their Extreme Rules matches and blacked out their usually very active social media accounts. Rollins is slated to challenge Bobby Lashley for the United States Championship on Raw, so we might get an indication of what - if anything - this all means very soon.
