Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Booker T has hit out against Athena (formerly Ember Moon) for revealing details of a WWE meeting where talent were encouraged to dress sexier.
In an interview with Chris Van Vliet of Insight, Athena said that female talent were encouraged to dress more provocatively in a “fashion consulting” meeting.
She added that reigning NXT Women’s Champion Mandy Rose was given as an example of how to dress.
During the latest episode of his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T discussed the comments made by Athena, who he worked with as part of his ‘Reality of Wrestling’ promotion:
“You just never know what the future brings, or what the future holds. And putting yourself in a bad situation to where there may be a bridge that you can’t cross back over it, serves you no purpose more than anything, and I just don’t know why she made the comments.
“Oh, just like say for instance throwing Mandy Rose in there or even put Mandy Rose’s name out there, you know. Mandy Rose might like the way she goes out and dresses, she might like the role that she’s playing.”
Since her release in November 2021, Athena has worked for Warrior Wrestling, where she is the reigning Women’s Champion.
