WATCH: Lacey Evans Has Awkward Interaction With Fan

That was awkward. There are all kinds of wrestlers in the world today and all of them have fans. Some of their fan bases are much larger than others but there is someone out there for everyone. On rare occasions, a fan gets to meet the wrestler in person and it can make for a great moment. Unfortunately there are times when it makes for a bad moment as well, which was the case with a recent encounter.

A video has made its way to YouTube showing SmackDown’s Lacey Evans meeting a fan. The fan praises Evans, including her looks so soon after giving birth to daughter, before putting his arm around her. Evans asks if the fan has ever died before, which gets him to pull his arm away and apologize. In recent weeks, Evans has appeared in vignettes showing her training. She has not wrestled since the November 11, 2022 SmackDown.

It’s a big strange. Check out the interaction, plus some of Evans in a more professional setting:

Opinion: There isn’t much of a good way around these things, though implying that a fan could die is one way to go. To be fair, Evans certainly handled this as well as could be expected, as she was already being nice enough by letting the fan film her. It is a step too far to put your arm around them unless you are invited in the first place, and that didn’t seem to be the case here.
