U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has faced increased scrutiny in 2025 as deportations have risen, sparking controversy over the agency’s actions. Critics say ICE has unfairly targeted people without criminal records, while supporters argue it is enforcing immigration laws.
During last night’s 6-Year Anniversary special episode of AEW Dynamite, multiple advertisements for ICE aired on HBO Max, which encouraged Americans to join the agency.
AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page was not happy with the ads airing during Dynamite. He took to Bluesky to express his frustration and posted the following:
“f**k ice airing commercials during dynamite, let em know:”
He also shared links directing fans to submit complaints to both HBO Max and TBS about the controversial ads.

Here’s how fans reacted to Hangman’s post on social media:
“Just wrestle bro.”
“What does he have against frozen water?”
“So he is mad that 20 people saw the commercial?”
“First amendment goes both ways buddy”
“Respect”
“Focus on your company bro”
“Good sh*t”
“Cheap heat”
“This is actually good work bc he knows conservatives watch wrestling too. He just looking for some heat that’s all”
“W hangman, and as always VIVA MEXICO”
“My goat”
“We wouldn’t need ICE if they was coming into this country legally now would we these people are breaking our laws by trying to sneek in illegally if they wanna be here they need to do it legally”
“Stay in your lane”
“They air all over NXT. I guess wrestling is the demo they look to recruit from.”
“I’m with Hangman. And it’s not just ice. It’s any commercial. Hate it when they go picture in picture during his matches because it’s hard for me to keep up with where he’s at because they make the show smaller and not the commercial”
“Such a big strong virtue signaling man.”
“I’m sure he has some room in his house to put some if he cares that much.”
“Do we have to get political?”
“‘Do we have to get political’ while Triple H is walking out of the f**king white house”
“Tell illegals to come back legal then”
“Keep the raids coming”
“He should be fired”
“Like I’ve said before keep politics out of the ring”
“Bro just became my favorite wrestler!”
“Focus on your tanking ratings. Leave the politics out”
“He has a right to his opinion however, AEW has the right to terminate his work if his opinion doesn’t work with their image.”
“Of course you wouldn’t be saying that if illegals were breaking into your house, bothering your family and friends, squatting in your house or even worse what if somebody that you cared about was hurt by an illegal gang member from another country”
“He should probably shut up and do his flips”
“Calm down soy boy”
“Now if only there were people who wanted to illegally enter AEW shows, then maybe there would be at least half-full houses…”
“Goat champion”
“A real cowboy wouldn’t have that stance”
“Just wrestle… literally no one asked his political opinions”
“Can’t wait till mjf is champ again honestly. Soy boy cowboy!”
“I agree. I don’t like ice in the winter either.”
“It aired during Dynamite. Nobody saw it.”
