Early Wednesday morning, WWE Hall of Famer (celebrity wing) Donald Trump declared victory in the presidential election as he led Kamala Harris in projected Electoral College votes.

Former AEW wrestler Jake Hager (former World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger in WWE) went on to claim that Tony Khan is a communist and threatened to fire him from the company if he didn’t stop publicly supporting Trump.

Below are some tweets from Hager (which he deleted later):

“Tony Khan is someone who threaten my job if i didn’t stop promoting my Trump. He is a communist.”

“Do u want proof that @TonyKhan is a communist and threatened me to be silent or else?”

“Everyone wants to talk sh*t about Trump. The Biden administration removed American energy on day one. So who is the tyrant?”

“Wrestling fans die believe sh*t they’re told is real… lmao”

“I love all pro wrestling fans that think they’re educated”

“Yes I support Trump. Yes I’m against k!lling babies. I guess that makes me a racist.”

Due to these tweets, Hager has been pulled from Blitzkrieg Pro’s wrestling event in December. Here’s the statement that they issued:

“Jake Hagar will no longer be appearing on December 14th in Enfield, CT.

On top of sponsors no longer being willing to work with him, we also just have to do what we think is right for our roster and fans.”
