According to the Wrestling Globe Newsletter, there has been recent internal discussion about what to do with talent and their Twitter accounts. This has been brought on by the likes of Matt Hardy, Chavo Guerrero, and Shad Gaspard making controversial late-night comments and even going back several months to Joey Styles and his political rants against Barack Obama. There are some in management, although not many, that see Twitter as a promotional tool. Others in management want all talent banned from posting messages under their gimmick names, or at least Tweeting after Midnight. The company wants to avoid being connected to anything that would upset those who matter such as sponsors and advertisers.
