A WWE fan is facing backlash after posting an AI clip of him being kissed by AJ Lee at the big event NY Expo. The video has been heavily criticized by those in the professional wrestling industry, but fan Chris Holler seems to have taken the criticism even further. Despite Lee’s request to remove the video, Horror refused to remove the simulated content.
As a result of Horror’s act, he was banned from all upcoming New York tentpole conventions and shows. Many are calling for him to be added to WWE’s banned list for his horror acts.

Incidents of female stars perpetrated by WWE fans
Lee’s horror AI video is another example of how WWE continues to face issues with how certain fans treat female talent. Injured “WWE Raw” star Liv Morgan and former WWE name Sonya Deville have been forced to involve law enforcement due to a stalking incident.
The Judgment Day star Roxanne Perez received death threats online earlier this year, and WWE reportedly increased security measures in response. Back in July, Perez responded to the threat in an interview with the San Antonio Express-News. She praised WWE for taking action quickly and said she was relieved. She urged her fans to choose their words carefully on social media as they don’t realize how harmful their posts online can be.
Rhea Ripley, one of WWE’s top stars, also faced a scary situation during a trip to Paris in August. As she tried to leave, an enthusiastic fan blocked her car door and asked for a photo.
