As we reported yesterday, ESPN personality: Amin Elhassan took a shot at Kevin Owens’ 8-year-old son and the professional wrestling business. We have seen the wrestling world (many fans and some pro-wrestlers) defend Owens and the wrestling business on social media. Elhassan (who has #HateHard in his twitter bio) has continued to troll wrestling fans over the past 24 hours.

Here was the comment that sparked the whole thing:
Mick Foley got wind of the comments and is not happy. He took to twitter to respond:
Hearing of an @espn @SportsNation making fun of @FightOwensFight 8 year old son for being happy for his father has me feeling sick & angry.

No, I’m not going to call the guy out, because he seems to enjoy that. I’m calling his @espn bosses in Bristol, CT https://t.co/sw38IaWR2R

Foley says an apology from ESPN would be necessary:
An apology from @espn seems like the least they could do. https://t.co/cS43kDMZyB

Thanks @KingRicochet @JadeTNA @KINGCorino – I’ve been talking with @espn, asking for an on-air apology. We’ll see. https://t.co/qHpvhSLyWn
