Via social media Phil “CM Punk” Brooks once again reminded people not to follow wrestlers at hotels or airports. “We unfortunately have to have this conversation again. Do not turn up at airports. Do not show up at hotels. I cannot believe I have to say this. DO NOT FOLLOW PEOPLE. You’ve repeatedly been politely told no, respect it. You are not a fan, you are a stalker and will be treated as such. Respect the boundaries. Stop harassing people.” Folks, I’m not even a big fan of Mr. Brooks, but we can 100% agree on this point. Leave wrestlers alone at these places. I’m going to add gyms, restaurants, grocery stores and parking lots to his list. Why don’t you just meet them at autograph signings or when they are invited to conventions (or both)? Enjoy an orderly, controlled experience that is safe for them AND for you. Don’t be the piece of shit CM Punk has to cut a promo on.
