As previously noted, Braun Strowman was publicly critical of indy wrestlers using services like Go Fund Me and Patreon to make up for lost income due to the Coronavirus outbreak.
Indy wrestler Gentleman Jervis issued a response to Strowman:
Ps. I was being sarcastic.
We’re not as afraid of hard work as you think. We just can’t find any work right now, which is an entirely different beast.
If you’d like me to explain the perils of an independent performer in the shadow of a corporate monopoly I’d be delighted.

The thing about Braun’s comments that gets me most is that I would love to practuce harder at wrestling.But most independent wrestlers have full time day jobs to help pay for their dream
When paydays are still $25 in some places it’s a necessity to work 2-3 jobs until we make it
