Taya Valkyrie Comments On Criticism Of Her After AEW Dynamite
Taya Valkyrie was targeted by some trolls on social media after her match against Britt Baker on AEW Dynamite, and she took to social media to fire back. Valkyrie posted to her Twitter account on Thursday addressing the negative comments about her, writing:
“Waking up to comments such as, Taya is fat, disgusting, slow, untalented, loser, looks like a man, and so on and so forth. I’m just a human being trying my best. Remember that next time and hopefully you never have to hear that kind of stuff about yourself.”
The post garnered support by several people in the wrestling industry, as you can see below with tweets from DEFY Wrestling, Saraya, Swerve Strickland, and others.

Getting to interact with your faves on social media is a privilege, and some of you truly make it such a miserable experience and ruin it for all the good ones out there.
Be louder about what you enjoy. https://t.co/I50CLGkGEc

You are an amazing human and woman who inspires many. That’s projection from people who think that way about themselves and only wish they could or could have made their dreams come true like you have. ❤️❤️❤️ https://t.co/fXrM5DvYFs
