Donald Trump told WWE legend The Undertaker that he earned the respect of one of Hollywood and wrestling’s greatest after being shot.
Trump appeared on The Undertaker’s long-awaited podcast, ‘Six Feet Under,’ on Monday.
Trump asked The Undertaker, whose real name is Mark Calaway, who was the biggest wrestling star on social media and he responded that it was Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.
Trump then discussed his history with The Rock, who recently admitted he regretted endorsing Joe Biden instead of Trump in 2020, saying, “It was great.” I never thought he would like me and I felt bad because I think he’s a fantastic guy.
He then heard from UFC promoter Dana White how impressed Johnson was after Trump stood up and fired back.
Donald Trump told WWE legend The Undertaker that he earned the respect of one of Hollywood and wrestling’s greatest after being shot.
Trump talked about his history with The Rock, saying, “It was great.” I never thought he would like me and I felt bad because I think he’s a fantastic guy. He then heard from UFC promoter Dana White how impressed Johnson was after Trump stood up and fired back.
“And then Dana White said, when I got shot, I got shot in the ear, you may have heard about that, Rock called Dana and said, ‘I want to have his number.’ I want to have his number. What he did is something incredible.” He considered it bravery. I don’t know, for me I considered it: ‘What is going on here?’ But the Rock was very pretty.
The Undertaker agreed with Johnson’s opinion on Trump’s response to the shooting and Trump asked him to convey his good feelings to Johnson.
In fact, Johnson publicly praised Trump after the July 13 shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania.
‘Whether you love Donald or you don’t love Donald, it doesn’t matter. “They tried to kill him,” he said at a conference in Florida.
‘There is no place for that. Despite being who we were at the time, I still believe in my core that it is not who we are as a country. “So he stood up at that moment and we wanted to see that,” he said. Washington Times reported.
In April, Johnson, 51, who many had suggested would one day run for office, admitted that he regretted endorsing Joe Biden in 2020.
The Hollywood megastar told Fox and Friends that he’s not happy with the “state” of America right now and admitted that “woke” and “cancel culture” really “upsets him.”
In a surprising reversal, he also admitted that publicly supporting Biden over Trump four years ago caused “divisiveness,” something he said “tears me up.”

Dwayne The Rock Johnson admitted that he regretted endorsing Joe Biden in 2020 and that he will not endorse him in 2024.
“The endorsement I made years ago with Biden was one that I thought was the best decision for me at the time,” he told the show.
“Now I realize that, going into this election, I will not do that, my goal is to unite this country,” he added.
‘I’ll keep my politics to myself. It’s between me and the polls. Like many of us, who do not trust all politicians, I do trust the American people and whoever they vote for is my president and I will support him 100 percent.”
True to his word, he has yet to endorse anything in the 2024 election, only professing his admiration for Trump’s response to the shooting.
It was a surprising change from 2020, when Rock gave full supportin a move that the Biden campaign criticized on its website. Having the macho validator was a way to counter Trump’s own message that he was the tougher candidate. His comments also made repeated references to Kamala Harris.
He said it was something he had “never done in the past” but decided to “go big” and then sat down with both of them.
“I have never publicly endorsed a presidential or vice presidential candidate in my life,” he said. ‘You two have experience to lead, you have done great things. Joe, you have had such an incredible career and you have led it with so much compassion, heart, drive and soul… Kamala, you have been a district attorney, a state attorney, a United States senator. You are smart and tough. I’ve seen you at those hearings,’ he said.
He called them “the best choice to lead our country.”
Harris gushed in a Zoom meeting that included Joe Biden and The Rock that she was a “big Fast & Furious fan, all of them Jumanji,” referencing her catalog of films.
