If you’ve already forgotten about the NXT developmental Diva who was canned for defending the Nazi imagery all over her Instagram page, man… lucky you. Forgotten is probably where Zahra Schreiber should have stayed, but some brilliant minds at DREAMWAVE Wrestling in LaSalle, Illinois decided that a disgraced former WWE employee was best for business:

It’s super crummy even mentioning an appearance like this because, realistically, if you get fired for posting and subsequently defending a Hitler version of My Little Pony, like… that’s a ridiculous series of words to string together in a sentence, let alone have that be your actual life. You probably shouldn’t be mentioned ever again. But independent wrestling is notoriously terrible (full stop) at doing things to get attention, because any publicity is good publicity, right? And who even wants to give this kind of nonsense publicity?
And what are the consequences? People will laugh at the idiocy of booking someone without a deep career and notable wrestling talent and instead book a name people said on the internet a bunch. Clicks are butts in seats. They might get some new Twitter followers, and they might enjoy being ‘maligned’ in the ‘sheets’ because there’s nothing an indie company loves more than faux-martyrdom. Not to mention the kid they’ve got her working with. I’m sure this is gonna do wonders for his career. Hopefully the whole five minutes of people talking about it is worth that kind of black mark on everyone’s reputations.
