Saraya always has to deal with a lot of criticism and hatred from fans for one reason or another. She was even named in a list of online of wrestlers and other talent who get harassed the most and now Saraya has reacted to being there.
While speaking on her Rulebreakers podcast, Saraya admitted she was shocked to see herself at number three, with Charlotte Flair and other women making up the rest of the top five. She thought it was wrong that all the top spots were women and felt the list only gave people more reason to be negative.
Saraya said fans and the wrestling world need to change how they treat women. She questioned why women are always the main targets and said it shows a big problem in the industry.
“Yeah. So again, this whole thing came out recently of like who gets the most hate in the wrestling business. I end up being number three on there. It ended up being—uh—Charlotte… who was the second one? I can’t remember. But it was all the women in the top five, which I thought was f***ed up, and I was third on it. I hated that list. I hate that that list even existed. Yeah. I was just like—but it kind of opened doors for people to continue to do it, you know what I mean? I was like, we need to rethink the way people treat women in this business. Absolutely. Because why the f*** is the top five women? Why? What’s… like why? That shows a lot. It shows a lot.”
Saraya said that even in 2025, women still get judged just for being female. Whether they lose weight, gain weight, or change their look, they are watched and criticized all the time, which she called unfair and “messed up.”
Because of all this pressure and hate, Saraya explained that she took a break from wrestling this year. She’s tired of the constant harassment and the people who spread it.
“Like at this point in 2025, we are still getting f****** s*** on just for being a f****** female. We lose weight, we gain… we f****** gain weight. Like any kind of different—like we are so under the microscope and it’s so fed up. That’s kind of a reason why I took a step back from it this year, because I’m just like… I’m done with these motherf*****.”
At the end of the day, women still face constant hate and unfair treatment, both online and at work. By speaking up, Saraya is sending a clear message that fans and wrestling companies need to change how they treat women and so we hope they take her seriously.
