A few days back, Republican nominee Donald Trump capped off an asserting victory in the presidential elections. With that win, Trump will take charge of the White House in January 2025. However, this monumental win wouldn’t have been possible without some major endorsements.
Among those who supported Trump were WWE legends The Undertaker and Kane. In fact, Kane didn’t hesitate to take a shot at his former co-worker, Dave Bautista. Glenn Jacobs took to his X account to celebrate the Republican win by referencing the TikTok he, Undertaker, and Trump took part in a month prior.
The Phenom had compared the elections to a six-man tag team wrestling match. Undertaker pitted himself, Kane, and Trump against the team of Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and Bautista. The latter had endorsed Harris-Walz, even mocking Trump in a scathing two-minute promo.
Despite that, fans found The Brothers of Destruction’s jab at Dave Bautista unnecessary. For starters, the wrestler-turned-actor had been nothing but respectful to the duo, especially Undertaker. Furthermore, Big Dave lauded the WWE Hall of Famer for helping him during the initial stages of his wrestling career.
Needless to say, wrestling personalities didn’t shy away from getting involved in politics this time around. Trump, @Undertaker, and Kane: 1…. Kamala, Bautista, and Walz: 0Glenn Jacobs aka Kane via XTrump, @Undertaker, and Kane: 1Kamala, Bautista, and Walz: 0 https://t.
