A new video of WWE star Roxanne Perez has gone viral on social media because it shows how creepy some wrestling fans can get.
There is no denying that wrestling supporters are some of the most knowledgeable and passionate among the various sports and entertainment fanbases. Yet, with the rapid growth of technology, especially smartphones, things can get very uncomfortable when it comes to talent and certain obsessed fans.
For the last couple of decades, WWE wrestlers have had to deal with fans tracking where they are staying and which flights they are on so they can see them up close at the airport. There have also been some worrisome moments of stalking for female stars. Including former WWE star Sonya Deville nearly being the victim of kidnapping a few years ago.
With smartphones, wrestlers have had to get used to cameras being in their faces all the time, and during WrestleMania 42 weekend, it included the invasion of privacy at hotels and even bathrooms for some legends. Well, this week brought a new moment of stalking that was very creepy.
A video has gone viral on X of a fan who was recording former NXT champion Roxanne Perez as she waited for transportation, probably, outside an airport. The video shows her in different moments as she was being watched for quite some time without her even knowing.
The video feels like something out of a horror movie involving a stalker and a potential victim. The footage has been slammed by many fans on social media. However, it nevertheless shows the level of disrespect some fans show for performers in public spaces and how creepy they can get.
Perez was also the potential victim of a stalker incident last year that required WWE to add more security to a meet-and-greet event.
