Rapper, fashion designer, and wrestling promoter Westside Gunn has spoken out after allegedly being removed from WWE Monday Night RAW in Buffalo, New York, on November 4, 2025. Gunn, a lifelong wrestling fan and front-row regular, claimed he was escorted out of the arena just minutes after the show began, despite holding a $5,000 ticket.
In a detailed post on X/Twitter, Gunn described the incident as “sad”, especially since it was in his hometown. He stated that he had invested heavily in WWE events over the years, attending numerous shows, but WWE always acted like “I didn’t exist.” Gunn also mentioned that this latest incident marks the end of his relationship with WWE.
Gunn claimed that he “was threatened to take everything out of my music, which I only did to pay homage,” over his use of wrestling-related names and imagery in his music. Despite those legal disputes, he has continued to publicly support the company to this day. Following his removal from RAW, Gunn said he plans to focus his efforts on his own wrestling promotion, 4th Rope Wrestling, and will no longer promote or endorse WWE content. Most of his grievances were directed at an individual in the company who allegedly “hates seeing a young black successful entrepreneur that could afford those seats.”
“I tried having conversations with 1 individual bc he’s causing all of these unnecessary cases and tbh he hates seeing a young black successful entrepreneur that could afford those seats and have to watch those chains dance across that screen to the point Monday night raw starts at 8pm I was kicked out by 803 after spending 5k for a seat plus travel, hotel etc…. in my own city for absolutely NOTHING!!!! No lie the kid in me heart broke that day… I put the billboard up that MILLION DOLLAR MAN billboard up which he loves and I wanted to push him in the culture bc he deserves it and to shOW VIRGIL love for the culture I get a letter saying ………: so I said u know what I’m a show love only to the ppl that show love to me from now on… so u don’t have to worry about me pushing that product over there again, and it’s sad bc i still love them but I have my own company 4THROPE…”
WWE has not released an official statement regarding Gunn’s claims or the circumstances surrounding his ejection. Sources familiar with the matter have not confirmed whether the removal was tied to prior copyright issues or other concerns. You can check out Westside Gunn’s full X post below:
