What's the drama going on with Effy on Twitter? Something about asking fans to pay a speeding ticket?

The Effy drama is almost exclusively marks being upset that someone reminded them of their part in the transaction.

Like yes, Effy makes six figures; have you considered where that money might be coming from?

People know they don’t have to give effy any money right? Who cares if he’s trying to get a speeding ticket paid.

I just found out I used to hang out with Effy and book shows for his old punk band way back lol, had no idea that teenager was him, he was a good kid then and seems to be one now, good on him for getting the bag.

A speeding ticket that big is either a pissed off cop or Effy did some real dumb poo poo.

Kinda gauche asking people to pay that for him, but whatever. It's wrestling, not primary school.

I don't think this is the average. Effy is an excellent marketer and has made a huge name for themselves. With merch, Twitch, Cameo, whatever else someone may do – if you market yourself well and put in the wild amount of work Effy does, then yeah you can probably make a pretty penny.

my last one was around $300 so I can see how it'd add up pretty quickly.

Also if you speed in a construction area those get very pricey very quickly. Wildly enough it takes a few road worker deaths before the cops stop staking out the abandoned sites and actually hang around the populated ones.

Yeah thats how I got my only speeding ticket. Construction side that had been abandoned for three years and the speed limit went from 70 to 55 even tho there was nothing on the road. Lights werent flashing so I didn't get in trouble for that but the speed limit still drops a couple miles for no reason

won't anyone think of all the hypothetical people existing in all the universes where Effy has killed them with his car? Or the universe where Effy is a mass murderer, or even worse the one where he's straight!?

It's not some heinous crime or anything but asking people to directly pay for a ticket seems kinda crass. Just do some extra promo for your Cameo/merch/etc, you still get cash and no one thinks you're a douchebag
