Legendary pro wrestler Mick Foley announced Tuesday he's done with World Wrestling Entertainment for at least three years, citing the company's close ties to Donald Trump and the president's "incredibly cruel comments in the wake of Rob Reiner’s death."

Foley told his 633,000 Instagram followers that he informed WWE on Monday that he "would not be making any appearances for the company as long as this man remains in office."

"I no longer wish to represent a company that coddles a man so seemingly void of compassion as he marches our country towards autocracy," Foley wrote.

The "final straw" came Monday, when Trump mocked and belittled Reiner, the beloved Hollywood director who was found dead in his Los Angeles home Sunday afternoon.

Reiner and his wife appeared to have died from stab wounds, a family source has told NBC News.
