Seth Rollins, Corey Graves, and Summer Rae Comment on Charlottesville Riot

August 12, 2017

This weekend for Charlottesville, VA has been very difficult, as White Nationalists turned a rally into acts of violence, sabotaging the city and fighting counterprotesters. This has caused a major uproar from both civilians, as well as politicians.

According to the New York Times, a gray car zoomed among demonstrators after the rally dispersed, hurling two people in the air, and mowing down several others. Unfortunately, a 32-year-old woman lost her life in the melee.

WWE talents Seth Rollins, Corey Graves, and Summer Rae all commented on the Charlottesville incidents.

My brain can't comprehend the level of stupidity going on in Charlottesville. We gotta do better than this. https://t.co/1zP5lOMFg8

Not only are the acts of hate & violence in #charlottsville disgusting, but being a person from the south I am embarrassed & ashamed.
