Professional wrestler Braun Strowman publicly criticized World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) on social media, expressing discontent regarding the company’s perceived disregard for its fanbase. The comments came in response to a post by fellow wrestler Karrion Kross, who highlighted an incident during the SummerSlam post-show where Triple H appeared to misinterpret audience chants for Kross as support for Brock Lesnar.
Strowman voiced his frustrations directly on Twitter, stating, “You know they don’t care about the fans!!! They care about nepotism a** kisser’s and their buddies!!!!” This remark resonated with many fans who have voiced similar concerns about WWE’s priorities. The situation unfolded when Triple H addressed the crowd’s chants, responding, “You want Brock? You got him,” during a discussion about Lesnar’s return.
Kross also weighed in on the matter, remarking, “Unreal. They write the scripts… But the fans write the truth. Thank you, Tick tock.” This exchange has sparked discussions among wrestling enthusiasts about the dynamic between WWE management and its audience.
Despite Strowman’s recent departure from WWE—where he was released in May 2023 after returning to the company in 2022 under Triple H’s new creative direction—he remains in the spotlight. A new television show produced by WWE Studios, titled “Everything on the Menu with Braun Strowman,” is set to premiere this fall on the USA Network. This show aims to showcase Strowman’s culinary adventures and will likely attract both wrestling fans and food enthusiasts alike.
The ongoing dialogue between Strowman, Kross, and WWE management highlights the complexities of fan engagement in professional wrestling. As the industry evolves, the relationship between wrestlers, promoters, and their audience continues to be a focal point of contention and interest.
