Rapper Westside Gunn Claims WWE Ejected Him From Raw

4 hours ago7 min read1 comments

In a move that’s got the wrestling world buzzing like a live mic on a Monday night, rapper and bona fide wrestling head Westside Gunn took to social media to blast WWE, claiming he got unceremoniously booted from a recent 'Raw' taping despite allegedly dropping a cool five grand on his seat. For those who don’t follow the hip-hop and grappling crossover as closely as they should, this isn't just some random celebrity complaint; Gunn is a legit die-hard, the kind of fan who doesn't just watch the product but lives it, running his own indie promotion, 4THROPE, and constantly championing both WWE and AEW on his platforms.He’s the guy you see in the front row, not for clout, but because he genuinely marks out for a well-executed suplex. So, when he posts that he got the heave-ho, it hits different than your typical 'celebrity has a bad night' story—this feels personal, like getting kicked out of your own family reunion.The incident raises immediate questions about WWE’s sometimes-rocky relationship with the very celebrities it often courts for mainstream attention. Remember Mike Tyson’s iconic run-in with Stone Cold? Or Bad Bunny absolutely crushing it in a WrestleMania match? WWE has a history of brilliantly integrating outside star power to create unforgettable moments that transcend the squared circle.But this situation with Gunn feels like the opposite side of that coin—a potential communication breakdown or a heavy-handed security decision that alienates a powerful influencer within a key demographic. The optics are terrible; it’s like benching your most passionate season ticket holder.The fallout on social media was instant and fierce, with fans and fellow artists rallying behind Gunn, turning the incident into a major talking point that overshadowed whatever was happening in the ring that night. It’s a classic case of backstage drama becoming the main event, and you have to wonder how this plays out in the long term. Does Triple H’s regime, which has prided itself on a more connected and fan-friendly approach, step in to smooth things over? Or does this push a influential figure like Gunn further into the welcoming arms of AEW, where he’s already got relationships with stars like CM Punk and Jon Moxley? For a business built on larger-than-life personalities and compelling narratives, ejecting a superfan who also happens to be a successful rapper and promoter isn't just a bad look—it’s a potential strategic blunder in the ongoing, and increasingly intense, war for the soul of professional wrestling.
