Over the past few years, more wrestlers have started to speak out about being harassed in public, specifically WWE and AEW stars who are travelling from show-to-show on a weekly basis. Whether it’s CM Punk asking for fans to respect wrestler boundaries, or Rhea Ripley requesting that people stop sending mail to her house, sometimes talent choose to create awareness around the issue by voicing their frustrations on social media, and Stephanie Vaquer unfortunately had to address an inconsiderate fan on Tuesday. 

In a post on X, the Women’s World Champion responded to a fan complaining that she denied to sign an autograph, explaining that the individual would not take no for an answer and didn’t respect her privacy given that it was her birthday.

“I always stop and I’m very kind to my fans. Yesterday was my birthday and I was honestly having a really bad day. Even so, I politely asked for understanding, and many people respected that. But you followed me for a long time, saying hurtful things and making me feel uncomfortable. I told you no multiple times, and you kept following me and recording. And now you’re posting this on social media. It’s sad to see people like you call themselves fans….”
