Kris Statlander Accuses Autograph Seeking Fans For Invading Her Privacy

Pro wrestlers have seen a spotlight on the way that fans go about getting autographs. This subject has drawn substantial headlines in the past, and it is still a topic of conversation.

Kevin Nash recently trashed pro wrestlers who complain about giving autographs and a photo-op. He argued that it takes far less time to make a fan’s day than to refuse an autograph. He did not address the trend of resellers hounding stars with a box of items for their signature, so they can flip it on eBay.

Kris Statlander recently spoke on Busted Open Radio about this tradition of fans waiting for pro wrestlers in extreme locations for autographs and photo-ops. This trend is an invasion of privacy, as she sees it. It appears that AEW’s resident alien isn’t a fan of this kind of activity.

“I’m not a fan of when fans wait at airports and hotels. We are not technically at work at that time, you know, and it’s just like most travel has been so hectic lately that a lot of us just cannot be bothered to put on a happy face sometimes. Some of us we have a lot of real-life things to deal with, and it’s like sometimes we’re not always our best selves, especially when traveling. We don’t feel our best.”

“Also, knowing that I’m going to a hotel and if there is fans there and, I feel like I’m not able to kind of relax and have some privacy and some free time. It’s just unfortunate that people feel so comfortable violating our privacy.”

Dana Brooke recently called out hypocritical haters who ask for autographs. That’s not all, either, as Nyla Rose has a rule when it comes to rude fans asking for her signature.

Even MJF has seen issues with autograph hounds at airports. The Young Bucks also have unique autographs they give people who they thing will resell their autographs.

Videos have come out of Alexa Bliss gettign blitzed with a ton of autographs. Rey Mysterio also had an incident that went viral in a big way. Video also came out of Liv Morgan getting swarmed by fans, eager for her autograph.

We will have to see if this subject pops up later on, but it’s probably not going away. After all, pro wrestling fans are incredibly passionate about their entertainment choice.
