# MJF Slams Fans Trying To Cancel Former WWE Star Nash Carter

AEW star MJF has slammed fans for trying to cancel Zachary Wentz/Green (fka WWE’s Nash Carter) following his controversial WWE release.

Green was released in early April after his wife Kimber Lee shared an image of Carter performing a Nazi salute having shaved his facial hair to resemble Adolf Hitler when he was 19.

The former NXT Tag Team Champion recently[broke his silence](https://wrestletalk.com/news/former-wwe-star-breaks-silence-over-controversial-release/) on the matter, sharing a lengthy statement to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/ZacharyWentz/status/1526324128717934593), apologising for the incident.

MJF has since commented on the statement, [writing](https://twitter.com/The_MJF/status/1526575395440676871):

> “I lived with this man.
>
> He’s not an antisemite.
>
> Stop virtue signaling and let the man do his job.”

Replying to another Twitter user who noted that he hadn’t previously seen MJF break character, the AEW star [noted](https://twitter.com/The_MJF/status/1526577554861215744):

> “I’m not a character. I’m a person with a functional brain that doesn’t try to cancel people for a sexual thrill. Eat dicks”

The AEW star has since deleted both tweets.

MJF has referenced his Jewish heritage on numerous occasions on AEW TV, notably recalling anti-semitic abuse from football teammates during his childhood in an [emotional promo](https://wrestletalk.com/news/mjfs-mother-reacts-emotional-aew-dynamite-promo/) on the February 23 edition of Dynamite.
