AEW star Saraya recently opened up about the significant mental toll caused by online negativity following her return to professional wrestling. Speaking in an interview with Andro Mammo, Saraya detailed the intense criticism she faced from fans online.
She described the severity of the fan reaction, which led her to doubt her comeback decision after years away due to injury.
“They completely tore me apart online, tore me apart like it was. It made me think I made a mistake coming back. And I was like, what have I done? … They’re like unforgiving. Like it’s crazy,” Saraya shared.
The former WWE Divas Champion admitted the constant negativity was difficult to handle.
“…it’s so I was having a rough time just dealing with that,” she stated.
To cope with the overwhelming online response, Saraya explained she developed a strategy to protect her mental health:
“But after a while, yeah, I just learned to just delete it off my phone. If I did do something, I would not look at social media for a couple of days until something else happened, you know?”
