There was a rumor that one of the WWE legends would become part of Donald Trump's cabinet, which turned both wrestling and political worlds into a frenzy.
These rumors started to increase in intensity after one of the WWE wrestlers, an outspoken Trump supporter for some time, made a public statement, "My president." The general feeling is that this could mean a possible role in politics. As it stands, the claims have not been confirmed.
The wrestler in question, with his history of aligning himself with Trump's political ideals, has made numerous public endorsements throughout Trump's political career. His deep connection to the former president has fueled speculation that he might be given some official role in the cabinet.
This guy while over the top in his ring persona and well known throughout the WWE community is still largely an enigma regarding a potential foray into politics.
There has not been any official confirmation of such an appointment from the wrestler or the Trump administration, despite all the buzz. The aftermath of any such development would be followed with fans and political observers alike.
This would be a very unlikely crossover between professional wrestling and American politics, in that personalities sometimes carry large weights of influence outside their industries.
For now, a WWE legend serving in Donald Trump's cabinet remains a prospect, with many questions yet to be answered. Whether this wrestler transitions himself from the squared circle into a political stage remains something to be seen, probably in coming months.
