The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of Mississippi’s ban on abortions after 15 weeks. SCOTUS, the nation’s most senior legal body, has overturned that right. Many WWE superstars like Kane, Becky Lynch, Paige, and other wrestlers shared their views on the decision of the Supreme Court. Abortion became legal in the United States after a historic ruling in 1973 in the Roe vs Wade case.

Following the SCOTUS announcement, WWE Hall of Famer and Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs, aka Kane, shared his opinion on the decision. Jacob’s tweet indicated his contentment over the overturning of the Roe vs Wade case.

Individual states are now able to ban the procedure again. Half of the states in the US are expected to introduce new restrictions or bans. Tennessee is one of those states who will introduce restrictions on abortion after the SCOTUS decision.
