One Fan Has Started a Petition to Get Strowman Fired After Raw Segment

Look, we all know what’s up with pro wrestling. It’s scripted entertainment. Athletes taking precautions not to injure each other in matches with pre-determined endings. But for some fans, it’s all too real.

That was the case for one who took umbrage with Braun Strowman’s beatdown of Roman Reigns last week. She put up a petition demanding WWE get Strowman off of Raw immediately. It currently has over 1,500 signatures, and we have to imagine at least a couple of those aren’t serious.

The statement accompanying the petition is pretty golden.

“To the WWE we the WWE Universe are not please with Strowman’s Actions tonight on Raw following his brutal attack on Roman Reigns. Me and a lot of the WWE Universe Want Strowman Fired effective immediately he crossed the line tonight following the attack on Roman and now Roman is in the hospital with injuries. If this is what you call Entertainment YOU Failed Miserably. I don’t care if he goes to SD Live We want him OFF of Raw or Fired from the WWE. I have been a fan of Raw for years and out of everything that I have seen happen this was by far the absolute Worst.”

But hey, we did get an update: “After having a talk someone that works for the WWE I need to take this petition down. But thank you for the support.”

Hm, that’s curious. Oh, there was a second update, too!

“EVERYONE STOP SIGNING I’M GETTING IT TAKEN DOWN!”

What a rollercoaster. Even Braun himself was pretty amused by it, apparently.
