Britt Baker comments on how “horrible and toxic” some wrestling fans can be

In an interview with Forbes.com, AEW star Britt Baker addressed some of the negativity that is spread across social media platforms. She brought up the death of Japanese wrestling star Hana Kimura…

“I think people just go on to Twitter just to be heard in a negative way. They just want to say something nasty and hateful and mean, so they will go on to Twitter for literally no [other] reason and they just say it and make sure they tag you in it, too.”

“We’ve had people in the industry kill themselves [Kimura] over cyberbullying, and you’d think that that would be enough for people to wake up. Keep your mean thoughts to yourself. You know, the body-shaming and telling me I should go kill myself because I beat so and so in a match, it’s just really, really horrible and toxic.”
