Bullying is a horrendous problem we all encounter at some point in our lives. As adults, we have the tools to defend ourselves, and surround ourselves with “worthy” people instead. However, bullying is a lot more difficult to deal with in childhood, just look at the recent story of Keaton Jones. Now, WWE Superstars have let their voices be heard. Here is the story.
Video of Keaton Jones
This video got me in tears, so if you are sensitive about these issues, please do not watch it. However, this video shows the pain and suffering bullying can cause. All I can say is shame on all bullies. And Keaton, never forget you are a special and brave person.
WWE Superstars Speak Out On The Story
Since the WWE is quite involved in anti-bullying campaigns, it is no surprise that the WWE has responded to this story. AJ Styles and Kevin Owens are just two of the WWE superstars who put down a heartfelt response to Keaton.
It appears to me that you go to school with a lot of insecure students. When they look into the mirror, they don’t like what they see. That’s why they choose you to pick on. Stay strong and know that you have friends that have your back, like me. Stay phenomenal kiddo. https://t.co/cNiaEjbY8b

Just saw this.
The world is broken and everyone needs to work to try and fix it. A good first step would be to listen to Keaton’s message and start by being nicer to each other in every day life. Lots of small steps can make a big difference.
Stay strong, Keaton. https://t.co/ivB9yEn75j

My Take on the Story
Like many people who are reading this story today, I have experienced bullying first-hand. When I look back at it now, I don’t give one hoot about the people who bullied me, but at the time, it felt like my world fell apart. Unfortunately, many children are still the victim of bullying and do not know things will get better. It is down to us to make the world a better place, and make bullies stop! WWE superstars standing up against bullies is just a start.
