Kane on Mick Foley cutting ties with WWE: ‘He’s entitled to his opinion’
Posted: Dec 23rd 2025 By: Bryan Rose
Kane thinks that Mick Foley is entitled to his opinion.
Speaking on Newsmax, the WWE Hall of Famer and now Republican mayor of Knox County, Tennessee said that while he doesn’t agree with Foley’s choice to cut ties with WWE due to their association with the Trump administration, part of the beauty of living in the United States is that people are free to disagree with one another.
“Well, certainly it’s no surprise. I know where Mick is at politically and we’ve had our discussions about politics,” he said. “We’ve always been able to keep them civil, and I wish that could happen more on the public platforms altogether. One thing is we live in a country where we are free to disagree about things. I think Mick is wrong, but nevertheless, he’s entitled to his opinion. I will defend his right to say that, even if I do think he’s wrong. And that’s the beauty of America. I wish that would kind of be all over the place, as opposed to just in wrestling.”
Foley announced last week that he would not be renewing his WWE Legends deal when it comes up in June and will not make any appearances for the company while President Trump remains in office. Foley cited Trump’s remarks about director Rob Reiner’s death as the final straw, calling them “incredibly cruel.”
Both Triple H and Stephanie McMahon have visited the White House and President Trump during his first year in office. Triple H appeared in a White House social media video on Monday giving fitness advice.
