Ava Raine, the daughter of WWE legend Dwayne \u201cThe Rock\u201d Johnson<\/a>, has drawn criticism after posting about conservative commentator Charlie Kirk<\/a> following his assassination.<\/p>\n

Kirk, 31, the founder of Turning Point USA<\/a>, was fatally shot last Wednesday while speaking at Utah Valley University.<\/p>\n

In the wake of his killing<\/a>, Raine re-posted a remark from comedian Gianmarco Soresi to her Instagram story, which read: \u201cIf you want people to have kind words when you pass, you should say kind things when you’re alive.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old wrestler later doubled down on the sentiment, writing on X: \u201cand i’ll stand behind this. be kind, now more than ever.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Her stance quickly divided fans, with some questioning her place in WWE.<\/p>\n

One wrote: \u201cHey @TripleH and @WWE do you want this representing the younger part of the company [just wondering]?\u201d<\/p>\n

Others added: \u201cYou need to be fired,\u201d and \u201cDisappointed and disgusted.\u201d Another critic said: \u201cYou’re an absolute moron. I hope you get canned,\u201d while one more blasted: \u201cI swear new WWE is just full of Nepo losers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Several even responded by sharing a viral clip of her father\u2019s wrestling days, where he shouts: \u201cShut up b**h.\u201d*<\/p>\n

Charlie Rock, a former communications coordinator for the Carolina Panthers, was fired after mocking the killing.<\/p>\n

Gerald Bourguet, who covered the Phoenix Suns for the ALLCITY Network, lost his role after calling Kirk an \u201cevil man.\u201d<\/p>\n

He later clarified<\/a>: \u201c\u2018Political differences\u2019 are not the same thing as spewing hateful rhetoric on a daily basis, and refusing to mourn a life devoted to that cause is not the same thing as celebrating gun violence. Just so we’re 100% clear on that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, major sports teams have honored Kirk since his death. The Yankees, Packers, Jets, Dolphins, Titans, Saints, Steelers, Cowboys and Cardinals all held moments of silence in his memory.<\/p>\n

Kirk leaves behind his wife Erika<\/a> and their two children.<\/p>\n
