Mick Foley Severs Ties With WWE After Trump’s Rob Reiner Remarks: ‘Last Straw’

Mick Foley is severing ties with WWE amid the company’s alleged support of President Donald Trump, calling the president’s recent comments about the late Rob Reiner the “last straw.”

Foley, 60, announced his decision to part ways with WWE on Tuesday, December 16, explaining via Instagram that he’s been “concerned” about the WWE’s “close relationship with Donald Trump for several months.”

The retired wrestler said his concerns grew “in light of [the Trump] administration’s ongoing cruel and inhumane treatment of immigrants (and pretty much anyone who ‘looks like an immigrant’).”

The turning point, however, came after Foley said he read the president’s “incredibly cruel comments in the wake of Rob Reiner’s death,” stating it “is the final straw for me.”

Donald Trump Doubles Down on Criticizing Late Rob Reiner After His Murder

Rob and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, were found dead in their home on Sunday, December 14, after being murdered.

Us Weekly later confirmed that the couple’s 32-year-old son Nick Reiner was arrested on a murder charge and held without bail. On Tuesday, the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office announced that Nick was officially charged with two counts of first-degree murder and could be facing life in prison without parole or the death penalty, should he be found guilty.

As Hollywood mourned the deaths of the director and his longtime spouse, who were 78 and 68, respectively, Trump, 79, issued a statement that seemingly pointed Rob’s alleged problems with him as the reason he was killed.

“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,” Trump wrote via his Truth Social platform on Monday.

He continued: “He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before. May Rob and Michele rest in peace!”

In the wake of the controversial comments, Foley revealed on Tuesday that “no longer” wishes to “represent a company that coddles a man so seemingly void of compassion as he marches our country towards autocracy.”

Foley shared, “Last night, I informed @WWE talent relations that I 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 noted, “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.’”

Us Weekly has reached out to WWE for comment.

Foley is a retired professional wrestler, comedian and author. During his time in the arena, Foley went by Cactus Jack from 1991 to 1996. He famously wore cowboy books and used items such as barbed wire during his matches.

He made his WWE debut in 1996 as Mankind, taking on the ring persona of Dude Love the following year. Cactus Jack made his return in 1997 as well and Foley fought as all three during 1998’s Royal Rumble.

The four-time world champion was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2013, one year after retiring from wrestling. Foley, however, has maintained his affiliation with WWE, working as the Raw General Manager from 2016 to 2017 and making appearances on WWE Raw for years.

Trump, meanwhile, has had a longstanding relationship with the WWE, namely former CEO and Chairman of the Board Vince McMahon, who resigned in 2024 after allegations of sexual assault. (McMahon has denied the allegations and the federal prosecutors dropped the criminal investigation in February.)

Prior to becoming president, Trump made several appearances on WWE programs and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2013 as a celebrity honoree.

Currently, WWE Chief Content Officer Paul Michael Levesque — known as Triple H — serves as part of the president’s fitness council.

WWE Star Charlotte Flair Reacts to Mid-Match Wardrobe Malfunction

Charlotte Flair’s bra top was clearly no match for her impressive wrestling moves.

During her Friday, November 7, SmackDown face-off with Nia Jax, Flair, 39, rocked a bedazzled white bra with matching bikini bottoms, thigh-high silver boots and a feathery overcoat. Flair, however, was seen adjusting her top on multiple occasions, right before the cameras cut to black for a split second.

“Did Charlotte Flair have a ‘wardrobe malfunction?’” a social media user wrote via X on Friday, which the wrestling pro ultimate retweeted onto her account.

Flair jokingly added, “I’m going to start wrestling in the robes.”

While Flair could laugh off the wardrobe mishap, she came up just shy of victory in the ring. Jax, 41, ultimately defeated Flair with the help of newbie wrestler Lash Legend.

Flair has performed with WWE since 2012, winning 14 titles to date.

“Being a spokesperson for the SmackDown’s women’s division is a full-time job,” she exclusively told Us Weekly in 2023. “It’s no secret WWE Superstars live out of suitcases and in hotels. I’m currently on the road [over] 275 days a year with no off-season.”

Before and after each match, Flair will give her commentary on ringside antics.

“Often, before going live on Friday Night SmackDown, I have a pre-match interview promoting the match or segment for that night,” she explained to Us. “You can watch me every Friday night tapping women out.”

Flair sustained a severe knee injury in December 2023, forcing her to sit out the 2024 season to recover. She returned to the ring earlier this year.

“It really kicked my ass. But, it gave me perspective, time and clarity, and it made me realize that I still would choose [life as a wrestler] again and again and again,” Flair told the U.K.’s Stylist in February, noting she wanted a low-key look for her WWE return. “On my first night back, I really wanted to try more lightweight make-up because I prefer no make-up when I’m outside of the ring. I did a lightweight foundation but realized I was very dewy on camera.”

She continued, “As the weeks have gone by, I’ve literally tried something different every week, like adding a pop of color or more highlighter. What I’ve come to realize is that what I really like is a matte look with a pop of color on the eyes specifically. Also, I love sparkle, especially when paired with the gear and the robes.”

Flair further stressed that her skin is a top priority, telling the magazine that she’s a self-proclaimed “skincare junkie.”

“I use retinol, and some days, my make-up artist points out that I’m peeling slightly. If I’ve overdone it, I’ll sleep in Eucerin’s Aquaphor Soothing Skin Balm, and I often do it the night before a show,” she said. “You know in Mrs Doubtfire, when [Robin Williams] puts the pie on his face? That’s what I look like when my face is smothered in Aquaphor. But, it really does the job and helps with the flaking, and I know my make-up artist appreciates it.”

As for her hair, Flair returned to the ring with a twist on her typically blonde tresses.

“I really wanted to come back with a different look, and so I opted for this ombré finish,” she told the outlet. “I have sew-in extensions, and it has been a nightmare to get them to match, but it’s a process. I’ll see where [the color] ends up.”

Nara Smith Seemingly Reacts to Rumors She Used a Surrogate for Baby No. 4

Influencer Nara Smith is sending a message to fans amid online speculation she used a surrogate to welcome her fourth baby with husband Lucky Blue Smith.

“Women’s bodies are pure magic — divinely designed to create, grow and nurture life. We become the bridge between heaven and earth guiding life into this world,” Nara, 24, wrote via Instagram on Monday, October 27. “With that our bodies transform and stretch. I used to feel the need to bend and force it back into how it used to look only to realize that it has been home to four other bodies. This final stage is filled with grace and slowing down🤍.”

Alongside the message, Nara shared an image of her holding newborn Fawnie Golden as she posed for a mirror picture with her abs visible underneath a cropped cardigan. In another photo, Nara showed off her midsection while sitting with Fawnie on her lap.

The post came days after Nara shared the same image via her Instagram Story, rocking the cream sweater and low-rise linen pants. “Rise and shineee,” she wrote at the time.

Influencers Nara and Lucky Blue Smith Welcome 4th Baby Together, His 5th

Nara announced earlier this month that she and the model welcomed their fourth baby together. The pair wrote in a joint Instagram post, “She’s here! Welcome to the world little angel 🤍.”

The couple are also parents to daughters Rumble Honey, 4, and Whimsy Lou, 18 months, and son Slim Easy, 3. Lucky Blue, for his part, also welcomed daughter Gravity with ex-girlfriend Stormi Bree Henley in 2017.

Nara has been candid about her decision to raise multiple children, relatively close in age, at a young age.

“Lucky had Gravity when he was really young,” Nara told GQ Hype in 2024. “It felt like a natural thing, ‘Yeah, I think I’m ready to have kids.’ When I’m 40, they’ll be 20, and we’ll grow up together. I want to build my life with them rather than trying to integrate them into my life later and it worked out great. I love being a young mom.”

Why Pregnant Nara Smith Kept Baby No. 4 a Secret for 6 Months

Nara rose to fame online for her videos of elaborate homemade meals she cooks for her family, which has since created conversation about the “trad wife” movement — a term describing women who raise families in a “traditional” stereotype. Nara, meanwhile, has denied the idea.

“The other day, someone brought it up to me, and they were like, ‘You have a very traditional way of life.’ I’m like, ‘What do you mean?’” Nara said on a July episode of Jay Shetty’s “On Purpose” podcast. “We split chores. I work. My husband works. We have children. We split everything. I cook because I love to, not because I have to. Lucky cleans. There was nothing traditional.”

In 2024, Nara exclusively told Us Weekly that she and Lucky Blue tune out others’ opinions. “I think [people] just project whatever they’re feeling onto us because it might be easier for them,” Nara shared at the time. “We just do our thing. And if it resonates, it does. And, if it doesn’t, that’s fine.”

YouTube Takes Another Hit on Truth: Watched TB Joshua Channel Remove

Sources: Watched TB Joshua

In an expected move, YouTube seems to be taking sides in the ongoing controversy surrounding the staged and fabricated BBC documentary on Prophet TB Joshua and the Synagogue, Church of All Nations (SCOAN). The latest target is the “Watched TB Joshua” YouTube channel, which has been taken down, making one to question the platform’s commitment to neutrality.

The channel, known for its objective analysis and exposure of falsehoods and slander in the BBC documentary, joins the ranks of other pro-TB Joshua channels that have faced similar takedowns. This includes the official YouTube channel of Prophet TB Joshua and SCOAN. The common thread among these channels is their dedication to presenting an alternative perspective and unveiling the truth with evidences.

YouTube’s actions are preventing the dissemination of views contrary to those presented in the BBC controversial documentary. This moves should spark concerns about censorship and the suppression of alternative narratives, leaving the public with limited access to different viewpoints.

The situation raises questions about the integrity of YouTube, a platforms that play a significant role in shaping public opinion. This act is indicative of a broader trend where alternative voices are stifled, limiting the public’s ability to make informed decisions.

They don’t want the public to know the truth. They are blocking alternative views, and the public must be wise; these are signs of end times. Do not be deceived; the world and its establishment are after the true church.

In response to this censorship, “Watched TB Joshua” has taken preemptive measures. Anticipating potential removal, the channel has already established a presence on Rumble, an alternative video-sharing platform. The new channel on Rumble aims to continue providing exclusive content related to TB Joshua and SCOAN, ensuring that subscribers and supporters can access information beyond the reach of mainstream platforms.

The call to action encourages those interested in TB Joshua and SCOAN to subscribe to the Rumble channel via the link: https://rumble.com/c/Watchedtbjoshua. This move is seen as a strategic step to counter the limitations imposed by YouTube and maintain an open dialogue about the ongoing events.

As the controversy unfolds, the takedown of “Watched TB Joshua” on YouTube raises critical questions about the role of major platforms in controlling information flow and the potential impact on public perception. It also serves as a reminder that alternative platforms may become essential in preserving diverse perspectives and fostering free expression in an increasingly interconnected digital landscape.
