Ten years have passed since Donald Trump's last appearance as a special guest on World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) programming, but former celebrities are making a comeback and supporting his 2024 presidential campaign. Campaigning there in the last days of a close US presidential contest is perhaps unique.
Trump, the only WWE Hall of Famer to visit the White House, the image is a social media sensation. Trump held the WWE's main event, WrestleMania, at his hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey, for consecutive years in the late 1980s, which brought the two groups together.
In 2007, the two men developed a rivalry in which Trump questioned the authority of the WWE chairman and even threw dollar bills from the rafters at spectators. Since being inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2013, Trump has not made an appearance on WWE programming. Given the company's brand growth and weekly product variety, it seems improbable that he will ever do so again.
Is John Cena supporting Donald Trump?
However, as president, he appointed Linda, the wife of Mr. McMahon, to his cabinet as an administrator of small businesses. The pro-Trump America First Policy Institute is now chaired by her as well. Mark Callaway, also known as "The Undertaker," and Glenn Jacobs, also known as "Kane," are WWE icons who recently appeared on social media with former President Donald Trump.
Actor and professional wrestler Dave Bautista, who recently supported Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Vice President Kamala Harris for the 2024 presidential race, has been critical of the video. Meanwhile, John Cena also shared a cryptic post regarding the upcoming US election. Through his post, he indicates his support for Donald Trump. Kamala Harris will win the election as per the polls state.
The combination of politics and entertainment has given the US presidential race a unique twist as wrestling stars become involved in the 2024 election debate. Celebrity influence is being used by both parties to draw in votes.
