Jake Hager went off on Twitter on Tuesday night during the United States Presidential election.
At one point during his now-deleted rant, the former Jack Swagger in WWE called AEW President Tony Khan a “communist” who threatened his job if he didn’t stop promoting Donald Trump.
When people began criticizing him over his support for the convicted felon, Hager went off on wrestling fans.
In multiple now-deleted tweets, he attempted to school fans about abortion and shared a satirical article screenshot about the election by saying he hoped it “triggers all the commies.”
Some of Hager’s now-deleted tweets include the following,
“I love the pro wrestling fans that Think their educated”
“Wrestling fans die believe s**t their told is real… lmao”
When a fan responded to Hager and tagged “TK” and Bryan Danielson, Hager clapped back with the following:
“Tony Khan is someone who threaten[ed] my job if I didn’t stop promoting my Trump. He [is] a communist.”
“Do u want proof that @TonyKhan is a communist and threatened me to be silent or else?”
For what it’s worth, Khan did not respond to any of Hager’s now-deleted posts.

“Jake Hagar will no longer be appearing on December 14th in Enfield, CT.
