Fans criticize Brittney Griner after WWE legend posts a welcome message on Twitter

After the news broke out that Brittney was finally coming back to the USA, many people were happy. One of them was the former WWE Champion, Kevin Nash. He posted a message on Twitter welcoming the WNBA player, but the fans were not having it.

People are talking about the trade but letting go of the fact that Griner was able to safely come over.

While this is a serious matter, the haters are just going to find the funniest insults to spew.

For the people who don’t know, there is another prisoner, an ex-Marine who is in Russia right now. People are weighing who should have been freed, the ex-Marine or Griner.

John Wick is the lone-wolf assassin played by Keanu Reeves in his own movie series and people are comparing the released arms dealer to him.

Again, people are comparing the Marine soldier and Griner and criticizing the government.

After all of these hateful comments bothered Nash, he replied to his own tweet.

Saying, “Some really fucked up people and responses. The Marine wasn’t in the discussion. It was take an American home who has been a gold medalist or no one.” He reiterated the fact that people are just going to keep talking. Griner should not let this get to her.
