• TNA Veteran Recalls Disheartening Experience In WWE – Says She Was Forced To Change In The Men’s Bathroom
Indy wrestler Joey Ryan recently tweeted the following about how WWE guys are coming for indy money:
When I started wrestling, WWE roster guys were told “these indie guys are coming for your jobs” so as extra talent, we got treated like dirt. Now these WWE roster guys are quitting their jobs and coming for our indie money.

This led to Lance Storm & Joey Ryan having the following exchange:
Painting with an awfully wide brush here. https://t.co/uqSyoO1e8Y

I can only speak from experience. Some people say it’s silly but half the industry who has had to change in broom closets and were told to sit in catering and then yelled at for sitting in catering are hitting that like button. I’m just happy that the culture of fear is changing.

This led to former TNA Knockout Velvet Sky recalling her experience in WWE:
Shit ur lucky u got the broom closet. Lol In ‘06 I was invited there as an extra & a certain female wrestler had me kicked out of the divas locker room by the makeup lady & made me change in the men’s bathroom w/ a bunch of dude extras cuz I was a “threat” to her job. Fun times.

No I’m not & wasn’t. This was way before TNA. Following my dream to try and make it happen, & the hard times I was given back then at that place was discouraging & disheartening. Joey wasn’t wrong in his tweet. That stuff went on for a lot of Indy guys & girls trying to make it.
