Mia Khalifa Loves Pro Wrestling; Hurricane Helms Gets Worked
Mia Khalifa, who made wrestling news a few weeks ago when she trashed Ronda Rousey and her professional aspirations, contributed to The Chairshot’s most read article by accepting an invitation to attend January 19’s Sabotage Wrestling event in Austin, Texas.
Well already a master of self-promotion, Khalifa was back at it when she tweeted about the upcoming appearance.
I WILL BE HERE ON JANUARY 19th. @thunderrosa22 invited me so I can see how “fake” wrestling really is, and I can’t waif to laugh in all their faces ?? #notimpressed pic.twitter.com/Uis1wiTfrD

Spelling mistake aside, Mia’s tweet takes a direct shot at wrestling, a clear indication that she will have some involvement on the 19th. Need more proof that she’ll get involved? Look at the bearded man on the poster. That’s right, none other than the master of self-promotion himself, Joey Ryan.
Joey Ryan is no stranger to getting non-wrestlers involved, getting Macaulay Culkin involved with Hornswoggle at Bar Wrestling in December. If you don’t think he’s got a plan, you don’t know Joey Ryan.
But it gets better, because former WWE/WWF/WCW Cruiserweight star Hurricane Helms reacted to Mia Khalifa and her recent tweet, and wasn’t too kind to Thunder Rosa for inviting her to the show.
Didn’t I lay this chick to rest? ?She thrashes Wrestling and, by proxy, everyone in it and it’s fans, so of course some Indy talent would offer her a free ticket. Lol ??♂️ Got to love pro wrestling. https://t.co/JgaFeiGlGx

Way to get worked, bro.
Sean Waltman also chimes in. And even though he doesn’t approve, he obviously knows what’s up–he ain’t getting worked.
That ought to sell some tickets.?

To her credit, Thunder Rosa (Kobra Moon on El Rey Network’s Lucha Underground, a show The Hurricane obviously doesn’t watch) handles the backhanded comment in a perfect way.
Bruh you just give me an idea on what to put on my Twitter description…. "Some Indy Talent"…. Thunder Rosa! https://t.co/IjGQUGFi0W

If you are anywhere near Austin, Texas on January 19, get to this show. You won’t regret it.

Mustafa Ali Issues Open Challenge After Capturing TNA International Title
Mustafa Ali captured the TNA International Championship at TNA Rebellion and followed up the victory with a provocative open challenge on social media, calling out independent wrestlers worldwide and telling the TNA roster to “kiss my ass.” The challenge immediately generated buzz across wrestling circles as fans and peers weighed in on who might step up.
One fan responded by pointing to reports of TNA pulling talent who were booked against AEW wrestlers at recent events and questioned why AEW competitors couldn’t answer Ali’s challenge. Ali replied on social media, pushing back on the criticism and reiterating his call for independent talent to take him on.

Road Dogg and Billy Gunn Weigh In on Celebrities in Pro Wrestling
Former WWE writer and on-screen star Brian “Road Dogg” James and AEW veteran Billy Gunn offered their takes on the role of celebrities in professional wrestling, discussing how outside names can impact the business. Drawing on decades of in-ring and creative experience, both men examined the balance between attracting mainstream attention and preserving the credibility of regular talent.
While acknowledging that celebrity appearances can provide valuable publicity and crossover appeal, Road Dogg and Gunn emphasized the need for thoughtful integration that supports long-term storytelling and wrestler development. Their perspectives underscore a common industry view: celebrities can be assets when used sparingly and strategically, but promoters must guard the core product and the performers who make it successful.
