Brody King, competing against wrestler MJF in the ring at the Vegas match, has been outspoken against ICE and organized campaigns to raise money supporting immigrant communities.

Fans at an All Elite Wrestling match on Wednesday night broke out into an anti-ICE chant that briefly paused the pro-wrestling match.

At the AEW World Championship Eliminator Match in Las Vegas, which was being broadcast live on TBS and HBO Max, a loud and sustained cry against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement of “F— ICE” reverberated through the audience before the opening bell rang.

The AEW Dynamite main event brought together a large crowd in Vegas, a major immigration destination for Latinos where almost 35% of the population is Hispanic or Latino. The professional wrestling company has also attracted a larger Latino fan base in recent years by embracing Mexican luchadores and the Latino wrestling tradition.

    Fuck yeah. Make America beautiful again

    If this happens I will be so proud I might just start blaring Lee Greenwood while fist pumping and screaming fuck ice. Yeah I know that orange deformed orangutan titty ruined it, but I’m taking it back. We should take it all back.

    (Unless Trump somehow gets royalties off of it now… if so there’s also a Dolly version, maybe I’ll just pump that version instead)…
