At least, thats the stereotype professional wrestler Maxwell Jacob Friedman (known as MJF in the ring) was playing on when he looking swole in a Golds Gym tank top, showing off his guns. Its a perfectly innocuous picture, until you get to the caption. I dont play dungeons and dragons, MJF wrote.

The reaction was swift and fierceand almost entirely against Friedman. The immensely ratioed tweet provoked responses ranging from a suggestion that Friedmans mom rolled a 1 when she gave birth to him to much more amiable invitations to give D&D a try. One user pointed out that famous jocks Vin Diesel and Terry Crews are known D&D players.

MJF seems committed to the bithe followed up by declaring , Turns out geeks that live in their parents basement and play dungeons and dragons are VERY VIOLENTbut the whole thing feels like trolling (or kayfabe, whichever you prefer). Brandon Cutler, whos soon to face MJF in the ring, responded : I do play Dungeons and Dragons. That sets up their match as a primal battle of nerd-hero versus jock-heel, though in the battle for Twitters affection, its the jock whos gotten owned.
