Jamie Hayter: “There’s some inherent misogyny in wrestling as a whole”

While speaking to the BBC, AEW star Jamie Hayter discussed how women’s wrestlers have continued to prove themselves in professional wrestling. Hayter stated the following…

“Women in wrestling have proven themselves – we can do great matches, good promos and make you want to see a match. There’s some inherent misogyny in wrestling as a whole, and women wrestlers for years would always get common tropes. But there are lots of different flavours of women’s wrestling, and we can tap into that more. I think I’m someone that just rolls with the punches. Whatever comes next I’ll go full force with it.”

Hayter also commented on being diagnosed with ADHD…

“It was not a surprise because my family are all neurodivergent and my siblings have autism. At school someone would say ‘oh, you might have ADHD’ but it never went beyond that, other than getting a little extra help for exams which I always really struggled with. It was a relief being diagnosed at the end of the day. It meant I can understand my brain a little better, and how I process and work with things.”
