    Is this personal due to politics or story stuff? Because my opinion is different based on both. If story, good, weave the disappoint of her personal posts into it without putting a spotlight on that.

    If it’s political, that’s a bad reason to fire someone, she posted an anti-abortion tweet (unless there was more, I missed), she wasn’t say storming the Capitol building like some prominent AEW champion’s wife. I’m not advocating her tweet, I am advocating that if she is fired for her political actions, it should apply even to the big prominent guy too.

    It’s probably in AEW’s best interest to toss her on Rampage until the contract runs out if they don’t want to use her. That would avoid the “wrestler claims they were fired for politics” headlines and the potential for Governor Desantis or WWE Hall of Famer Trump using her as an example of bias.

      She should definitely not be fired for her politics, I agree. But this wasn’t ‘her politics’, so much as ‘posting shitty stuff on the internet, political or not, which can reflect poorly on the employer’.

      TK knows he has several shitboxes who work for him and like almost every employer likely does not care as long as she performs her job as required, but once you publicly open your mouth it becomes a different issue, especially if their contracts have some kind of morality clause (which I doubt extensively they do in this business outside of actual employees, but you get my point).

      She can be as shit as she wants, but she needs to do it quietly.

      They also wont be able to toss her on Rampage since Rampage will be ending in like a few months iirc, long before the first year of her contract runs out, let alone the 3rd.
