On TV, wrestlers stay in character to entertain fans. At live events, they often relax and interact more freely. However, some fans go too far, making wrestlers uncomfortable. While this issue has recently involved female wrestlers, male stars like Cody Rhodes and CM Punk have also faced similar situations.
After last week’s Raw, Rhodes and Punk teamed up with Rey Mysterio for a match. Once they won, they met fans, signing autographs and taking photos. But an OnlyFans model, Morgan Moore, made them uncomfortable by touching them inappropriately. After backlash, she finally responded.
Moore posted an apology in a now-deleted post on X, saying she didn’t know fans weren’t allowed to put their arms around wrestlers. She claimed she apologized to Rhodes and Punk and even took photos with them later. Still, she criticized WWE and Logan Paul, demanding he be banned for past actions.
I didn’t know there was a rule that you can’t put your arms around a wrestler but given a lot wrestling fans hygiene is questionable this makes sense. I apologised at the time for being too aggressive trying to do that for a pic when they came back and took photos on my phone.

Moore argued that the video was edited to make it seem like the wrestlers ignored her. She also shared Instagram messages from stars like Chris Jericho and MJF as proof. Despite her evidence, fans may still be upset with her for crossing boundaries.
