When God's Hate singer and AEW wrestler Brody King walked onto the ramp at Arena Mexico for a very special edition of Dynamite wearing an "Abolish ICE" t-shirt, it took the internet by storm.
The clip went viral, fans discussed the Van Nuys native's decision to debut the look in Mexico, and the story was even picked up by mainstream media sources that don't often give wrestling the time of day, with Chris Hayes pointing out the decision on his MSNBC show All In.
To capitalize on the sudden attention he's received for his decision, King decided to drop a new t-shirt commemorating his now-iconic look with Edgemen Printing. The proceeds won't be going in his pocket, but instead to The Local Hearts Foundation, a group dedicated to the goal of "reaching out to the hearts of our community to create a culture of love."
All proceeds will be donated to Local hearts foundation to help families that have been impacted from ICE raids. Thank you @travisrt for the awesome design https://t.co/hrVPHWvgPY pic.twitter.com/4F2KR5Ciqk

Taking to social media before Dynamite's Mexico debut, King shared a message from Mexican makeup artist Jose Corella dispelling many of the claims associated with the ICE raids in Los Angeles.
"Let me be clear: What's happening in Los Angeles right now is not only morally reprehensible — it's legally indefensible. This is a sanctuary city, a designation that was democratically voted on and enacted into law by the residents of this city — not by political opportunists grandstanding from a golf course in Florida," Corella wrote.
He went on:
"Being undocumented in the United States is not a criminal offense. It is a civil violation. That means it holds the same legal weight as running a stop sign on a bicycle, setting off a firework after a drink, or selling unlicensed fan merch on Etsy. It is subject to civil penalties — typically a fine — not imprisonment, not detention, and certainly not extrajudicial abduction.
Dragging someone off the street at gunpoint, without a warrant or due process, and forcing them into an unmarked vehicle operated by armed, plainclothed agents is not law enforcement — it is armed kidnapping. And armed kidnapping is a felony — a real one.
So, if you're going to obsess over who is illegal, start by looking at the heavily armed individuals violating constitutional protections under the guise of enforcing the law. Because what they're doing is criminal, not the people they're targeting."
With a performance at Sound and Fury fest and AEW's biggest show of the year, All In Texas, approaching in July, King has a very busy schedule ahead of him. While his opponent at All In remains up in the air, his feelings on what's happening in Los Angeles couldn't be clearer.
