After going through successful surgery on her broken collarbone (occurred during her tour in Japan with Stardom), Brandi Rhodes tweeted out,
"I don't wrestle because I have to. I do it because I want to. I love to. I miss countless acting and modeling opportunities to make shows. Opportunities that pay very well and wouldn't crush my collarbone to pieces. Please respect talents efforts. You don't have to like us all."
A "fan" came along to say Brandi was doing it to help Cody pay the bills and Brandi went on to explain how wrong the person was, which you can see in the tweets below.

Yeah right, indie wrestling doesn't pay the bills so you had to help your husband out. End of story!

Guess that’s why I ring announced as well. WWE didn’t pay the bills. Yet I’m sitting up in this house bigger than all of your hopes and dreams. K I’m done with you.

My point is you made more money as a ring anouncer than you ever will performing in indies, less work for more money should always be the goal! Your just brainwashed by your husband 🙄 not much I can do about that

I don’t have to work at all. My husband is successful and you’re well aware. I don’t share your mediocre life outlook. I was raised by ambitious people. I quit ring announcing in part bc I wasn’t happy with my pay to work ratio. You’re desperate to be right when you’re wrong. https://t.co/1hQpjQir8x
