Nyla Rose is one of the mainstays of AEW television when it comes to the company’s women’s division. Being a transgender wrestler, she is always at the forefront of a lot of unwarranted hate. That said, she also has a new condition for rude fans who wait for her autographs at airports.
The issue of fans showing up at airports to meet pro wrestlers has become a recurring problem for several stars. While chance encounters are usually welcomed, a particular group of people now deliberately plan to be at the airport with a ton of merchandise, hoping to get the stars to sign them. These items are then later sold on eBay for a profit, causing frustration for the wrestlers.
Earlier this year, a video of an unmasked Rey Mysterio found its way to social media. In the clip, Rey is seen rejecting a fan’s request for autographs at an airport. Of course, this fan was obviously trying to sell Mysterio’s autograph for a profit.
Nyla Rose is also well aware of fans who wait at airports for autographs, which is why she took to Twitter and revealed the new conditions fans need to meet in order for her to sign autographs at airports.
From now on if you are a group of a******* lurking at the airport at 5:30 in the morning waiting on autographs.
I ain’t signing s*** unless you have a coffee for me and you hit the Nana and let me record it… it’s only fair.”
Wrestlers are not obliged to entertain fan requests, and it entirely depends on the wrestler in question whether they want to sign anything. Regardless, there will always be a section of fans who feel entitled to get autographs and that’s unlikely to ever change.
What is your opinion on Nyla Rose’s condition for autographs at the airport? Do you think some fans are simply too entitled? Sound off in the comments!
