WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley revealed he’s cutting ties with the company due to its relationship with President Donald Trump.

He made the announcement on Tuesday morning in a post on Instagram.

“PARTING WAYS WITH WWE,” he titled the caption.

“While I have been concerned about WWE‘s close relationship with Donald Trump for several months — especially in light of his administration’s ongoing cruel and inhumane treatment of immigrants (and pretty much anyone who ‘looks like an immigrant’) — reading the President’s incredibly cruel comments in the wake of Rob Reiner’s death is the final straw for me,” he wrote.

On Monday, Mr. Trump took to Truth Social to weigh in on the Reiner and his wife Michele’s deaths.

“A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind-crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS” he wrote.

Reiner and his wife were found dead in their L.A. home on Sunday afternoon. Their son Nick has been arrested and booked on murder charges.

The president immediately received backlash for the statement.

Foley, a New York Times bestselling author, said he “no longer wishes to represent a company that coddles a man so seemingly void of compassion as he marches our country towards autocracy.”

He said he informed WWE’s Talent Relations on Monday night of his decision and said he “would not be making any appearances for the company as long as this man remains in office.”

“Additionally, I will not be signing a new Legends deal when my current one expires in June,” he continued. “I love WWE, will always treasure my time with them, and I am deeply appreciative for all the opportunities they afforded me. But, in the words of Popeye the sailor, ‘I stands all I can stands, and I can’t stands no more.'”

Trump has had a long history with the WWE.

He’s appeared on-screen and in the ring at various events and at multiple Wrestlemanias, which are equivalent to the Super Bowl within the wrestling world. In 2013, he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.

He’s also a longtime friend of WWE co-founder Vince McMahon and his estranged wife, Linda, who is currently serving as the Trump administration’s Secretary of Education. Previously, Linda served as the administrator of the Small Business Administration during Trump’s first term from 2017 to 2019.

Linda’s son-in-law, Paul Levesque, who is known by his WWE persona Triple H, was appointed to the President’s Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition in 2025 as the council’s vice chair.

Levesque, who has since retired from wrestling, is currently the WWE’s Chief Content Officer, head of creative and is an executive producer.

Foley, who’s often regarded as one of the greatest wrestlers within professional wrestling, is a three-time WWE champion, Hardcore champion and eight-time Tag Team champion.

During his time with the company, he went head-to-head with major names like The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker and many more.

KTLA 5 has reached out to the WWE for a statement and is awaiting a response.
