A WWE Hall of Famer has dragged both Donald Trump and Vince McMahon yet again.

In the recent past, the former Governor of Minnesota, Jesse Ventura, had called the current President of the United States’ induction into the promotion’s Hall of Fame a disgrace while targeting then-company boss McMahon.

Well, you know why he got in? Because he provided us two buildings, I think. WrestleMania V and VI or something, where he probably made millions, off renting us his buildings to hold WrestleMania. And for that, Vince McMahon puts him in the Hall of Fame. It’s a disgrace.

WWE Legend Accuses Donald Trump Of Protecting Vince McMahon During Federal Sexual Investigation

The 74-year-old recently spoke to Piers Morgan, again calling out Donald Trump’s place in the HOF, and labeled it as a tragedy. Jesse Ventura also claimed that Trump shielded Vince McMahon by stopping a federal sexual investigation against him.

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.

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.

Donald Trump was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2013, whereas Jesse Ventura was a member of the Class of 2004.
