Mick Foley isn’t holding back—and this time, he’s calling out his own WWE peers.
After the tragic passing of acclaimed director and actor Rob Reiner and his wife Michele, Donald Trump created outrage with a controversial post that used their deaths to insult Reiner’s political beliefs. Now, Foley is taking a public stand on his Instagram Story — and calling out his fellow WWE colleagues in the process.
“What @officialjackwhite said here is spot on. How any of my @wwe colleagues can stand by — let alone stand next to — this man is beyond me.”
Foley’s comments came shortly after news broke that beloved filmmaker and activist Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Reiner were found stabbed to death in their Los Angeles home. The shocking double homicide sent Hollywood into mourning — but Trump decided to respond by mocking Reiner and calling his death the result of “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
In a now-viral Truth Social post, Trump wrote that Reiner’s death was caused by “the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.” That tone-deaf response led to a ton of outrage — with rocker Jack White going scorched earth on the US President on Instagram as well.
“Trump you disgusting, vile, egomaniac, loser, child,” White posted. “To use someone’s tragic death to promote your own vanity and fascist authoritarian agenda is a corrupt and narcissistic sin. Shame on you Trump and anyone who defends this.”
Law enforcement has arrested the Reiners’ son, Nick, in connection with the double homicide. Police are still investigating the motive. The brutal nature of the deaths shocked fans and peers alike — and Trump’s post only poured gasoline on an already raging fire.
While tributes pour in from across entertainment, Mick Foley’s response is definitely one of the strongest reactions yet from a name connected to both politics and pro wrestling.
