A Heated Back-and-Forth Exchange on Social Media
In a recent exchange on social media, former WWE star CJ Perry stood up for the world of professional wrestling after a fan took a shot at the sport. The hater claimed that WWE is ‘steroid-filled fake fighting,’ sparking a fiery response from Perry.
According to sources close to the situation, the original post was made by a self-proclaimed wrestling critic who has been vocal about their disdain for the industry. The post quickly went viral, and Perry saw it as an opportunity to defend the sport she loves.
Perry’s Initial Response
CJ Perry took to Twitter to share her thoughts on the matter, stating, “To all the haters who think wrestling is fake… let me tell you, it takes a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to put on a show for thousands of people every night. I’ve broken bones, suffered concussions, and pushed my body to the limit. It’s not fake fighting when you’re getting hurt.”
Perry’s response was met with a mix of support and backlash from fans and fellow wrestlers, with some agreeing with her and others questioning her decision to engage with the critic.
The Back-and-Forth Exchange Continues
The critic responded to Perry’s initial tweet, claiming that she was just “paid to pretend” and that the injuries she suffered were “all part of the act.” Perry fired back, sharing a photo of herself in the hospital after a particularly rough match.
“Paid to pretend? You think it’s easy to get hit in the head with a chair and then get back up and do it again? You think it’s easy to suffer from chronic pain and still perform at a high level? I’ll take my paycheck, thank you very much,” Perry tweeted.
A WWE Insider Weighs In
According to a WWE insider, the exchange between Perry and the critic has sparked a lot of discussion among wrestlers and staff about the perception of professional wrestling.

A Call to Action
As the debate continues, CJ Perry is calling on fans to support the sport and the wrestlers who put their lives on the line every night.
