The Wrestling Observer Newsletter recently reported that WWE may have forced a member of the Smackdown roster to delete a social media post. According to the report, Murphy, who wrestled as a “disciple” to “The Monday Night Messiah” Seth Rollins, was told to remove an Instagram post explaining the end of their story with the Mysterio family. The very end of the story saw Murphy and Aalyah Mysterio unite, and her family embraced both, after weeks of resistance. Murphy spent weeks away from WWE TV after that, and the story was hardly mentioned when he returned, besides a brief run-in with Rollins backstage.
To see the the quote from the new deleted Instagram post, check it out below:
“Let’s point out the obvious! The Mysterios used me! I never needed them! I’m beyond one of the most talent(ed) in-ring performers on the planet! Aalyah used me to be on tv and advance an acting career. Dominik used me so he had a reason to stand ringside. Rey was jealous that I became the new face of the cruiserweight(s) and he was left out of the discussion. They took what they wanted then they left me in the shadows! Sounds like my time in NXT.”
