WWE has responded to accusations of racism leveled at the company by NXT's Jordan Myles.

The African American wrestler was left incensed by a shirt WWE designed for him, with the design akin to blackface imagery. And he got on Twitter this week to protest what he believes is "a slap in the face."

The merchandise was listed for a short period before being taken down several weeks ago. But Myles hasn't let up.

"I will keep posting this till my voice is heard. I’m not sorry for anything I say or do," he posted on Twitter on Sunday. "Representation is important.

"If this is Vince McMahon's & Triple H's “vision” of me then this is a slap in the face to EVERY African American performer, fan, and supporter."

WWE has since put out a statement on Myles' comments, claiming that the wrestler approved the design when it was shown to him ahead of production.

"Albert Hardie Jr. (aka Jordan Myles) approved this t-shirt for sale," the statement reads. "As always, we work collaboratively with all of our performers to develop logos and merchandise designs and get their input and approval before proceeding. This was the same process with Albert, and we responded swiftly once he later requested that the logo/t-shirt be redesigned. No t-shirts were sold."

Seems Like It's Going To Be Brushed Off

This isn't exactly an "oh no, we messed up" admission, neither does it exude regret. WWE is simply saying that Myles said the design was okay and it was taken down once he asked for it to be redesigned.

It's also been claimed that none of the shirts were sold.

So what's the big deal, right?
