Simone Alexandra Garcia Johnson, often referred to as “Eva” or “Eva Reign,” made headlines on Sunday by posting a middle finger emoji directed at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the “entire Trump administration.”
“And now, I can proudly say that [middle finger emoji] ICE and their entire regime,” she stated in a now-deleted post on her X account, as reported.
The daughter of former WWE star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s remarks seemed to indicate her newfound freedom to criticize the Trump administration after leaving World Wrestling Entertainment.
On Friday, it became known that she would not be renewing her WWE contract, signaling a significant shift in her career.
Eva appears to be joining a growing list of celebrities who are using strong language to push back against federal law enforcement.
Responses on social media included mockery from various users, with one suggesting Eva had “abandoned her ‘career’ to throw a tantrum online.”
“Eva is at political rock bottom,” another user quipped, creatively referring to her father’s persona with a GIF featuring him in a WWE segment.
In response to her post, one commenter noted, “Omg little nepo baby throwing a tantrum trying to protect a rapist and murderer,” while asserting that ICE is both necessary and crucial.
Another user added, “Cry more,” sharing a GIF of Donald Trump waving “bye-bye.”
“Your legacy in WWE will forever be known as a domestic radical leftist terrorist who condones violence against political opponents,” criticized a user, suggesting that her actions have tarnished her reputation.
The exchange referenced a controversial social media post Eva made about Turning Point USA’s founder shortly after a tragic event, which drew significant backlash from fans.
Breitbart News noted that Eva shared a quote from comedian Gianmarco Solesi on her Instagram Story, which emphasized the importance of kindness in life, although it didn’t specifically mention any current events.
Despite lacking a direct connection to the controversy, she emphasized a commitment to kindness in her repost, which some interpreted as a warning regarding her own safety.
