Please just give me some space."Since then, several fans have taken to social media to give their thoughts on Bowens' possible heel turn.Check out some of the reactions below:Screengrab of fan reactions (Credit: Fan reactions on X)AEW star Anthony Bowens prevented Max Caster from getting fired in the pastThis week wasn't the first time that Anthony Bowens answered Max Caster's open challenge.
