Brooks Jensen Apologizes For Wearing Ole Anderson Shirt After Fans Say Ole Was A Racist

During a recent episode of WWE NXT, Brooks Jensen wore an Ole Anderson shirt, which got backlash from certain fans. Several people claimed that Anderson was a racist and criticized Jensen for paying tribute to him. In a post on Twitter, Jensen apologized and said he doesn’t support racism of any kind.

He wrote: “I will never support any racism, hate or bullying. While I respected Ole for his wrestling, it was news to me after wearing the t-shirt that he was associated with these allegations. I’ve noticed my “looks” and where I’m from are frequently stigmatized with the underbelly of our society (i.e, racists), but this mullet just likes to give love and party. My apologies to anyone who knew the allegations prior and were offended by the shirt. I’m learning and this was noted.”

He then later announced that he would be taking a break from social media.
