  • Mayor Glenn Jacobs, a WWE hall of famer, challenged Tim Walz to a wrestling match after the governor claimed he could "kick the ass" of MAGA supporters.

The article from Mediaite discusses a unique political challenge issued by Glenn Jacobs, the Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, and former WWE star known as Kane, to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. The challenge came after Governor Walz, during an interview on MSNBC, boasted about his wrestling background and claimed he could "kick MAGA's ass." In response, Jacobs, a Republican, took to social media to challenge Walz to a wrestling match, humorously suggesting it could be held at WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles. Jacobs emphasized that the match would be a friendly, non-political event, focusing on the spirit of competition rather than political rivalry. He also mentioned that the event could raise money for charity, specifically for the families of fallen first responders. This challenge has garnered attention for blending the worlds of professional wrestling and politics in an entertaining manner.
