He also used Twitter to share this message to everyone, "In the storm I release control, God and his Universe will sail me where he wants me to be, one love. HH."
A statement was also released saying, "WWE is committed to embracing and celebrating individuals from all backgrounds as demonstrated by the diversity of our employees, performers and fans worldwide."
