Fan demands apology from WWE Superstar.

[Thebadguy]

A mother will do anything to protect her kid -- just ask former "Shark Tank" winner Shelly Ehler ... who's picking a fight with a 6'5", 239-pound WWE star after he made her 8-year-old cry.

Ehler -- who scored a $75k investment on "Tank" for her ShoNo towels -- has a serious beef with Alberto Del Rio ... who snatched her son's handmade sign during a WWE event in Anaheim, CA this weekend ... and RIPPED IT UP (or at least tried to).

In the video (above) Del Rio isn't quite strong enough to rip the sign in half (it is cardboard) ... so he takes off small, pathetic, chunks instead.

FYI -- it's standard practice for the wrestlers to interact with audience members "in character." In this case, the sign was pro-Sheamus ... the wrestling arch-nemesis of Del Rio.

But TMZ spoke to Shelly, who says her 8-year-old was terrified by the wrestler's actions and instantly burst into tears. She adds, "Del Rio is a bully. I looked at him and said 'he's crying' ... and he mocked him."

Shelly -- who says her 8-year-old cried all the all way home -- vented her frustrations to the wrestler on Twitter and then fired off a an angry letter to the WWE.

In the letter she says, "Take signs from adults NOT KIDS! My son was bullied by your superstars and it is not okay."

Despite her demands, Shelly claims she's heard crickets from Del Rio -- but his manager tweeted her back and said, "lol blah blah blah."

FYI -- as soon as Shelly contacted Sheamus about the incident ... he immediately offered to send her son a signed photo and meet with him next time he's in town.

But Ricardo could. Guess who's getting that next Smackdown Title Shot

That woman should not be complaining. Yeah, it's a dikk move, but hey, that's what heels are for. I never heard Arvy Dee complain about the fact that DiBiase kicked the ball out from under his hands.

Yeah, like the "Miz-girl"

 

[Premeditated]

jesus christ. the current wwe fans are bunch of whiners and sensitive fakkits. Parents are worse than before.

Yes, that includes the little winnie kids too. I'm pretty sure I was more g'd up than these current crops of kids when I was their age.

@ this bytch using the Be A Star campaign to get at Vince.


Seriously though the kid was 8. Man the fukk up. Where's this kids dad?

 

[Riley Escobar]

Should have spat on this kid and bust a nut in his madre's eye for good measure

fukk little Jimmies

 

[Sypress]

Thats my heel

I bet ryback would be able to rip the sign one week and cant a week later

this mother failed as a parent for allowing her kid to mark for shame us and bring that sign, i have no sympathy for them.

poor kid gonna grow up and end up on an internet message board boasting shame us and talking about iron phalluses.

It used to be an honor to have interaction with a heel. These lil Jimmies are ruining the business. He should have spit on the kid and ran the sign over in the whip. Then let Ricardo raw dog his mom.

This.

Some of my favorite memories of wrestling events were of heels doing heel things towards us. shyt you haven't really enjoyed a house show as a young wrestling fan until a heel reacts at you specifically.


I can remember Vader yelling at me and 3 of my friends who were up against the rail during entrances to "shut up and go sit your asses down" at a house show, not ashamed to admit we formed a single file line and went to sit our asses down



The mom either must not understand pro wrestling or is just seeking attention aka the moooooonay.





-P-

When I was a kid I dreamed of having interaction with a wrestler...snatching my sign and ripping it would've made my day

Must be a single mother household, or the father has some 'splainin to do for raising such a soft little bytch

 

[Niggthaniel Essex]

fukk this kid and his mom.

We had to deal with obvious racism and abuse AND WE LOVED IT.
