World Wrestling Entertainment apologized after using footage of Auschwitz, the infamous Nazi concentration and extermination camp, in a promotional spot for a hyped father-son match.
On Twitter, the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum said it was hard to call it an “editing mistake.” “Exploiting the site that became a symbol of enormous human tragedy is shameless and insults the memory of all victims of Auschwitz,” the organization \n \n tweeted. The promotional video for WrestleMania 39 featured WWE wrestler Dominik Mysterio, who has an ongoing rivalry with his father, Rey Mysterio, and was “arrested” in December for pushing him. “You think this is a game to me.
“As soon as we learned, it was removed immediately. We apologize for this error.” The gaffe quickly caught the attention of social media users. In later airings and reruns of the first night of WrestleMania, the footage showed an image of barbed wire. WWE is known for its outlandish storylines. In this father-son rivalry, Dominik eventually turned on Rey, culminating in an altercation on Christmas Eve.
