NXT newcomer Lio Rush (M.O.T.H) received some backlash on social media today when he decided to crack a joke about Emma being released from WWE. This didn’t sit well with many within the industry and tons of fans on Twitter.

We noted earlier how Peyton Royce called him out for his remarks he made and now Sean Waltman along with Taz had some words for him as well. You can see their comments below:
