WWE Wrestler Honored By NHL For Charitable Efforts

It’s worth keeping him around. While it might not be the most popular at the moment, there is no denying that WWE is the biggest wrestling company in the world. It has a global reach that no other company can offer and that is not likely to change for a very long time. With so many moving parts, they can always use some good publicity and one of their wrestlers excels in that area. Shockingly enough, he has done it again.

There are a lot of people on the WWE roster and a lot of them stand out in their own way. In Titus O’Neil’s case, it is due to all of the positive things that he does. O’Neil has done all kinds of charity work in and around his home state Florida for a variety of causes. He has put his celebrity status to good use and that is something that should be recognized. Now he has done it again in a different sport.

O’Neil posted an image and message to his Instagram saying that he has been honored as a Community Hero by the NHL for being part of their #WeSkateForBlackLivesMatter campaign. The announcement came before the Montreal Canadiens vs. Pittsburgh Pennsylvania playoff game on Saturday night. O’Neil has been part of WWE since 2009 and his most recent match took place on the July 30 Main Event.

O’Neil has been around for a good while. Check out some of the things he has done over the years:

Opinion: Is there anything this guy doesn’t do? O’Neil puts in so much work for so many people and it is absolutely amazing to see how much great work he does for so many causes. I know he isn’t the biggest star in WWE, but having him around the company is one of the best things that WWE can do. It is great to see something like this because it helps a lot of other people, which is always a good thing.
