A WWE Hall of Famer could potentially be on his way to become the Vice President of the United States of America, according to legendary wrestling journalist Bill Apter.
With the 2024 United States presidential election season in full swing, politician Donald Trump recently took it upon himself to speak highly of Glenn Jacobs, also known as Kane. For those unaware, Jacobs is currently serving as the Republican Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee. Trump also mentioned The Undertaker, heaping praise on the talent of The Brothers of Destruction.
