Last night (Sun. January 27, 2019) the 2019 Royal Rumble pay-per-view (PPV) took place from the Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona. During the show, two new Royal Rumble match winners were crowned for both the men and women. The Road To WrestleMania is now beginning to take shape as we’re just months away from “The Show Of Shows.” During the show yesterday, however, one fan wearing an All Elite Wrestling (AEW) shirt ran into some trouble.
In a video uploaded to Twitter, it looks like some WWE production crew members went up to the fan, who was in an area in which he’d be featured on camera a lot. The fan was asked to take off his AEW t-shirt. The crewmembers stood by as the fan took off his shirt. Luckily he was wearing another shirt underneath. Check out the video here:

Nick Jackson of The Young Bucks, and AEW Executive Vice President, responded to the video:
Let it be known that if you wanna wear a WWE shirt at Double Or Nothing or any AEW related event we won’t do this to you.
