Simone Johnson has issued stark criticism of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Trump administration following her departure from WWE.

Writing on X on Sunday, the 24-year-old expressed her disdain for the federal agency and the whole executive branch. The post was made two days after she confirmed that her contract with WWE had expired.

Johnson, who performed as Ava, announced on Friday that she had made the “difficult” decision not to renew her contract. She noted that her appearance on last Tuesday’s episode of NXT was her final date with the company.

The daughter of Dwayne Johnson joined the WWE Performance Center in 2020 and made her on-screen debut in October 2022. She transitioned from an in-ring role to become the brand’s General Manager in January 2024.
