As the 2024 U.S. presidential election approaches, Vice President Kamala Harris has garnered endorsements from various sectors, including notable figures from World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). These endorsements highlight the intersection of sports entertainment and politics, reflecting the diverse support Harris has received.

Dave Bautista’s Vocal Support

Dave Bautista, known in WWE as “The Animal” Batista, has been an outspoken supporter of Kamala Harris. In September 2024, Bautista shared a video on social media urging early voting and expressing his endorsement by wearing a Harris-Walz campaign t-shirt. He emphasized the importance of participating in the election, stating, “Freedom isn’t something we just talk about; it’s something we act on.”

Mick Foley’s Endorsement

Mick Foley, famed for his personas like Mankind and Cactus Jack, has also endorsed Harris. Foley has been critical of former President Donald Trump, describing him as a “dangerous con man” and expressing concern over his rhetoric.

Despite differing political views with fellow WWE legend The Undertaker, Foley emphasized that their friendship remains strong, stating, “Friendships are stronger, family is stronger.”

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Political Stance

While Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has not officially endorsed a candidate in the 2024 election, his previous political engagements are noteworthy. In 2020, Johnson endorsed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, marking his first public political endorsement. However, in 2024, Johnson has chosen to remain neutral, focusing on his entertainment career and philanthropic efforts.

In a recent statement on social media, former WWE star Ryback voiced his concerns about the current political climate in the United States. His commentary, shared alongside a controversial video, has stirred significant attention. Here’s a deeper dive into his claims and his explicit endorsement for the upcoming election.

Ryback’s Bold Claim About Migrant Gangs

Ryback’s tweet addressed a video suggesting that “migrant gangs are targeting homes in Colorado suburbs, including Lakewood, Aurora, and Longmont.” He warned that the issue could quickly escalate, spreading to other major cities unless decisive action is taken immediately.

In his post, the former WWE Superstar stated, “This will spread to every major city in no time if not stopped immediately.”

A Dire Warning About Leadership and Policy

The former Intercontinental Champion went further, specifically targeting Vice President Kamala Harris, implying that her leadership would exacerbate the situation. He tweeted, “Under Kamala this only gets way worse. They want chaos and the American people to feel as if they need the government to save them.”

The Controversial Issue of Gun Control

Another key point Ryback touched upon was gun control. His tweet concluded with a stark warning: “Now just imagine when they take our guns away.”

By tying this issue to the scenario depicted in the video, Ryback underscores a common narrative in right-wing discourse: the importance of the Second Amendment as a safeguard against both criminal activity and governmental overreach.

Ryback’s Endorsement of Donald Trump

Perhaps the most striking part of the former WWE Superstar’s tweet was his clear endorsement for the 2024 presidential election. He urged his followers to “Vote Trump,” signaling his belief that former President Donald Trump is better suited to handle these pressing issues.

This endorsement is consistent with Trump’s tough stance on immigration, law enforcement, and gun rights. Ryback’s alignment with Trump reflects a broader sentiment among many conservative figures who see the former president as a bulwark against the perceived threats highlighted in the video and tweet.
