Donald Trump to appear on the Undertaker's podcast

Donald Trump, former U.S. president, is reportedly going to appear on a podcast together with Mark Calaway, a legendary former pro wrestler better known as the Undertaker.

This was revealed by Politico reporter Alex Isenstadt, who said on X (formerly Twitter) that Trump would appear on the podcast, called "Six Feet Under With Mark Calaway".

Trump, who is running again in this year's U.S. presidential election, is no stranger to the world of professional wrestling.

He was inducted into the World Wrestling Entertainment's (WWE) Hall of Fame in 2013, and made an appearance at the 2007 edition of WrestleMania, the company's premier event.

Trump's appearance was billed as the "Battle of the Billionaires", as he took on WWE owner Vincent K McMahon, an encounter which resulted in McMahon's head getting shaved clean on live TV.

Trump has since moved on to politics, but he never quite left his association with pro wrestling behind.

While president, he appointed McMahon's wife Linda McMahon to a role in his government, as the head of the Small Business Administration.

During this latest campaign, Trump has still been in touch with the pro wrestling world.

Hulk Hogan, another legendary figure in the business, made an appearance at the Republican National Convention that formally nominated Trump as the party's candidate.

He attempted to rip off his shirt during his speech.

Trump has also enjoyed the support of Glenn Jacobs, Knox County mayor and better known as the pro wrestler Kane, who was portrayed as the brother of the Undertaker while in the WWE.

Trump, who was convicted on criminal charges in a hush money trial in May 2024, recently surprised the public by swaying gently to music for about 30 minutes during a town hall event after a couple of attendees needed medical attention, not taking questions.

Following this event, Trump cancelled a number of scheduled media appearances, including an interview with NBC news and a rally for the National Rifle Association.

However, he appears well enough for a sit-down with the Undertaker.
