Like many fandoms, among the most fervent skilled wrestling viewers have a repute for crossing boundaries with performers, as was on display during this 12 months’s WWE WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas,\u00a0Nevada. Sitting down for an interview with comedian\u00a0Chrissy Chaos,<\/a>\u00a0WWE’s Damian Priest was asked about those encounters. He gave a less harsh response than many others within the industry while still making it clear the behavior is not acceptable.<\/p>\n

“There’s a whole lot of passionate fans, to illustrate that, and I’ll say this: look, sometimes \u2013 and I get it \u2013 once you’re so keen about something, you form of forget normal \u2013 tips on how to act normal. You forget, you recognize, just common decency,” Priest said.\u00a0Although these fans often invade the non-public space of professional wrestlers, he doesn’t consider it stems from maliciousness. “I do forgive it a little bit bit, but I’m not saying that it is also okay [or] that I’m glad when it’s happening.”<\/p>\n

“Nevertheless it’s an element of [being a pro wrestler], so, to anybody who’s in a star style of role? When you’re gonna complain about being approached by fans, then you definitely selected the improper industry!” Priest interestingly added. Nonetheless, he quickly noted that despite the fact that he does understand the fervour, he is not excusing all the things, especially fans acting inappropriately. “At the identical time, we’re still people and we’re still going to react like people. So we’ll have our moments too.”<\/p>\n
