Darren Young criticou a WWE por organizar uma tour em Abu Dhabi esta semana. Como é do conhecimento geral, no paÃs, a homossexualidade é crime. Young disse:
Why do we bring the best entertainment into a country like abu dhabi and they look down upon women and gays? I get it! #MillionsofDollars

I feel like no none has my back and it upsets me. The struggle is real. I'm human.

"@DarrenYoungWWE: My freedom of speech is gone. Gone but not forgotten." Makes those MLK & Veteran montages WWE plays a bit laughable. #NOH8

A WWE respondeu aos comentários de Darren Young através de um comunicado:
Fred Rosser Statement
“WWE does not discriminate against individuals regardless of age, race, religion or sexual orientation, and we continue to proudly support Fred Rosser (aka WWE Superstar Darren Young) for being open about his sexuality.
Unfortunately, WWE cannot change cultures and laws around the world, and thus we did not send Fred Rosser to the United Arab Emirates for our upcoming events for his own protection.
WWE also fully supports Fred Rosser’s right to express his views on personal social media accounts rather than WWE’s corporate platforms.”
