David Starr, who has consistently pushed for wrestling to unionize and called out WWE for some of their moral conflicts, questioned Rollins, wondering if he wanted wrestlers to rally around the entire industry or just one certain company.

Do you mean rally behind an industry or rally behind a company? https://t.co/oatYyYNG9f

Rollins clarified that he wants everyone to rally around the whole industry, not just WWE.

I very much mean an industry, David. I came from nothing. I have friends and students at every level and they’ve all been decimated by this pandemic. As the shutdown took hold of my WWE family yesterday, I felt a deep sadness. I want us all to lift each other up. https://t.co/POiRMeW12t

I agree that we workers all need to rally together.

I think recognition of responsibility for the unnecessary & egregious decisions made should be made as well.

I believe the sentiment of compassion, empathy and sadness is sincere.

I also believe the recognition of responsibility for these unnecessary & egregious actions should be made as well.

We, as workers, need to channel this sadness (and in some cases justified anger) to unify. https://t.co/jMcX4GrGHL
