Jesse Ventura Alleges Donald Trump Is Only In WWE Hall of Fame Because He Stopped An Investigation Against Vince McMahon
Jesse Venture is once again speaking out against Donald Trump being in the WWE Hall of Fame.
Speaking to Piers Morgan, the former Governor of Minnesota once again weighed in on Trump being in the Hall of Fame.
“Trump being a Hall of Famer is a tragedy. This guy has never been in the ring. I got a good friend, Ken Patera, Olympian, first man to overhead press 500 pounds, 25 years in the wrestling business. Kenny Patera is not in the Hall of Fame. Donald Trump does not belong in the wrestling Hall of Fame. He never earned it,” said Ventura.
Ventura stated that he got into the Hall of Fame because he wrestled 60 consecutive nights in a row. “That’s how you get into the Hall of Fame.”
He continued, “When I was referring to putting a wrestler in the White House, I was talking about me, not him. I was the former governor of Minnesota. I’m the only real former wrestler. I don’t include him. He’s only in the Hall of Fame because he stopped an investigation against Vince McMahon, of sexual stuff.”
Trump was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2013, four years before he took office as President for his first term in 2017.
McMahon was sued by former employee Janel Grant in 2024, alleging she was sexually assaulted and trafficked by McMahon. The federal government launched an investigation into McMahon in May 2024.
