Business magnate and popular culture icon Donald Trump is being inducted into the celebrity wing of WWE’s Hall Of Fame. And why not? He hosted WrestleMania IV and WrestleMania V in Trump Plaza, was interviewed by Jesse “The Body” Ventura as part of WrestleMania XX and cornered for Bobby Lashley in a WrestleMania 23 “Battle Of The Billionaires” match that saw Vince McMahon get his head shaved. Hell, Trump even won a match against Rose O’Donnell on Raw.
Trump is a deserving honoree, but if we’re being honest, none of his WWE accomplishments stack up to my favorite forced-insertion of The Donald into wrestling television: that time the Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling used him as leverage in an attempt to sell a woman into slavery.
