The advent of social media has also given rise to the advent of crowdfunds that help out for a good cause. Danny Burch, who used to be part of WWE, is currently suffering a crisis and needs help in a big way.
Danny Burch was part of WWE initially between 2011 and 2014. He returned in 2015 and was eventually teamed up with Oney Lorcan. They would go on to win the NXT Tag Team Championships once.
Danny Burch was released from his contract back in January of last year. He would then start wrestling in the independent circuit afterwards. Burch took to Twitter and stated that it stung having to ask fans for financial help, but he needed it.
Burch linked a GoFundMe and revealed that his account had been hacked and as a result, he had lost everything that he had. His rent and a legal fee were both things that needed to be paid, which he could do thanks to fan support.
“Worst thing I’ve ever had to do in my life, Is ask for help but I recently got my bank account hacked and lost everything. Impending rent and a legal fee that needs to be paid ASAP. any little helps.”
So far, $2,635 out of $3,500 have been raised from the site. We send our best to Danny Burch and hope he will be able to get back on his feet after such a harrowing incident.
