Following the recent death of Ole Anderson, NXT’s Brooks Jensen would wear a t-shirt to pay tribute to the deceased wrestler, booker, and promoter. However, the second-generation talent has since been on the receiving end of backlash for supporting “a massive racist,” as one fan described, which has resulted in him issuing a public apology on social media platform X. In this, he would reveal he was unaware of the allegations towards Anderson and noted that he would never support any form of racism, hate, or bullying.
For those unaware, Ole Anderson has previously been accused by multiple black wrestlers of using racist slurs toward them and downplaying their accomplishments. In fact, Rocky Johnson would go as far as to call him “the biggest racist in the wrestling business.” And while his historical importance and achievements in the industry can never be overlooked, his reputation remains forever tarnished, even in death, because of his small-minded views.
