Roman Reigns, folks, he’s the undisputed heavyweight champion of the wrestling world, and you better believe every die-hard fan knows it. But guess what, things got spicy at a recent AEW shindig when a fan dared to utter the name of the Tribal Chief himself.
Last night’s AEW Collision was hotter than a grudge match in Hell’s Kitchen, with MJF defending his AEW World Championship against Kenny Omega. Fans were eating it up, but there was one poor soul who didn’t quite have a blast.
This fan hopped on Twitter and spilled the tea, confessing that she accidentally let Roman Reigns slip from her lips during the Collision. Oh, the horror! The icy glares from fellow attendees were colder than a polar bear’s toenails, and our fan thought she was about to meet her maker right then and there.
“I ACCIDENTALLY SLIPPED AND MENTIONED ROMAN REIGNS! THE FEAR ON MY FACE FROM THE STARES I GOT.“
“Time legit stopped i thought they were going to murder me then and there. The streets are telling the truth. Do NOT mention WWE at AEW events. It’s almost as bad as the IWC.” (that’s the Internet Wrestling Community for you newbies).”
Now, we all know that wrestling fandom can be a wild ride, with tribal loyalties running deep in both WWE and AEW. But it’s downright heartbreaking to see a fan catch flak just for name-dropping Roman Reigns. Come on, wrestling world, can’t we all just get along?
