.WWE issued an apology after using footage of the Auschwitz death camp in a fight promo. WWE described it as an 'editing mistake' in a statement and said it was quickly removed.
The picture was used in a five-minute promo of a WrestleMania 39 contest between stars Dominik and Rey Mysterio, NPR reported. The photo appeared on the screen during Dominik's comments about being a hardened criminal. WWE described it as an"editing mistake" in a statement and said it was quickly removed.“We had no knowledge of what was depicted. As soon as we learned, it was removed immediately.
A Twitter user posted a picture of the mix-up. It appears that the WWE editors mistook the death camp for a standard prison. The image showed an interior shot of the camp with barbed wire, a guard tower, and brick buildings rather than the more noticeable train station or"Arbeit Macht Frei" gate. "The fact that Auschwitz image was used to promote a WWE match is hard to call '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 museum's account tweeted.
