#4 The original incident with Emma

This is the main incident that got the Man Of The Hour in trouble. Emma, after quite a career in WWE, was finally released by the company in the year 2017. Before she went, she had two matches with Asuka who was steamrolling through her opponents at the time.

Shortly after it was announced that she had been released, Lio Rush made a joke on Twitter about Emma not being ready for Asuka. Not only was this comment uncalled for in the light of the fact that Emma would no longer be able to pursue her WWE dreams, the issue was that Lio Rush was a relative newcomer at that point without a real place in the roster.

Many people responded to the original tweet and there was a scare at that point that Lio Rush would never make it to the main roster. Well he certainly did make it, but things aren't great right now either.
