"It means nothing to me" - Multiple WWE Superstars react after Twitter takes away blue ticks for those not paying

WWE Superstars such as Sheamus, Mace, Zelina Vega, Ricochet, and others erupted on social media after Twitter pulled its switch on "verified blue tick" accounts.

On Thursday, Twitter began removing tick mark icons off the profiles of thousands of superstars, celebrities, politicians, and journalists, in one of the most prominent signs of Elon Musk's transformation of the firm.

For years, the blue tick mark suggested that Twitter had confirmed the user's identity behind an account and that the emblem was considered a status symbol.

However, since Mr. Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion on October 27, 2022, the social media giant began to charge customers $8 per month to keep their verification status. The founder of SpaceX has also stated that people who do not pay the required amount will lose their tick marks.

Following the news, WWE Superstars took to social media to share their opinions about the sudden change on their accounts.

Check out the reactions from the stars below:

RAW Superstar Mace said the blue tick meant nothing to him, and he does not require validation.

Former World Champion Sheamus mockingly threatened to Brogue Kick, the person who removed the tick.

Female superstars such as Zelina Vega, Dakota Kai, and Trish Stratus shared their feelings about the Twitter update.

Ricochet, Carmelo Hayes, Duke Hudson, and Bronson Reed reacted on Twitter as well.

Warner Bros. Discovery reportedly showed interest in pursuing a deal with WWE

James Andrew Miller, former USA Network Executive VP of Original Programming, indicated that Warner Bros. Discovery had an eye on WWE.

Miller addressed his first WrestleMania experience on SI Media, revealing that Warner Bros. Discovery has indicated an interest in the Stamford-based company.

"I think so. I wouldn't be surprised, despite the fact that money is such an issue for them; I wouldn't be surprised if Warner Bros. Discovery wouldn't like a slice of that WWE pie," he said.

WBD is currently under contract with Tony Khan's promotion AEW and appears to be pleased with the company. Only time will tell if the Stamford-based promotion and Warner Bros. join hands.
