Donald Trump, the former U.S. President and 2024 Republican nominee, was interviewed by WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker on a recent edition of his “Six Feet Under” podcast,
Although this surprising crossover generated significant attention from fans and media, it also led to controversy regarding some of The Undertaker’s political comments during the conversation.
Following the podcast’s release, many speculated that the interview caused mixed feelings among WWE’s locker room members.
Fightful Select is reporting that while the podcast did spark disagreements among certain individuals, there is no evidence that The Undertaker’s choice to host Trump resulted in any major internal strife within WWE.
The report states, “There are a lot of people that disagree with it. That’s just the nature of politics in general. But I haven’t heard anyone in WWE that are mad at him over it.”
Although the podcast may have incited political disputes — typical of today’s divided landscape — there is no proof of significant backlash within WWE against The Undertaker for selecting Trump as his guest.
WWE has consistently held ties to the political sphere, and Trump has a history with the promotion, appearing in past storylines, including at WrestleMania 23.
Fans are split over The Undertaker’s interview with Trump, but the locker room appears to be adopting a more measured stance, acknowledging that political differences are unavoidable, especially when prominent figures engage in contentious issues.
