The Undertaker Defends Donald Trump’s Appearance on His Podcast After Severe Backlash

The Undertaker, the wrestling icon with a career spanning over three decades, is known not only for his unforgettable performances but also for occasionally sharing his political views. As a strong supporter of Donald Trump, he defended his decision to have Trump appear on his podcast, addressing the criticism that followed.

Ahead of the US Presidential Elections, Donald Trump received endorsements from figures like The Undertaker, who interviewed Trump on his Six Feet Under podcast. During the episode, the WWE Hall of Famer stated that Trump has made politics “fun again.” However, The Deadman would receive significant backlash for having Trump on his podcast as many felt it was simply distasteful.

While speaking on the latest episode of his Six Fee Under podcast, The Undertaker addressed criticism regarding his decision to feature Donald Trump on his podcast. He explained that when the chance came up, he felt it was important to take it. He knew there would be negative reactions, with people calling him things like “Nazi,” “fascist,” and “misogynist.”

The Deadman added he didn’t really care about what others thought about his decision to have Trump on his podcast. The decision was made, and it was done. He also hinted that there was more to the situation than people might understand. In the end, he said the opportunity was too good to pass up, which is why they avoid talking about politics on the podcast.

“When the opportunity presented itself, I think we had to capitalize on it. Yeah, and you know, I can already hear the comments. Oh yeah, do you hear them? Oh yeah, yeah, ‘but Nazi,’ ‘oh jeez,’ ‘fascist,’ yeah, ‘misogynist,’ all the things—all the things.”

Here’s the thing—I’m not here to sing praises or, you know, I don’t care honestly what people think about what we did. We did it, and it’s done. But, you know, there’s a lot more there than what a lot of people think. Anyway, yeah, we had a great opportunity, we took it, and that’s why we don’t talk about politics on this show.”

In the end, Donald Trump defeated Kamala Harris in the U.S. elections and became the new President, with a final tally of 277 electoral votes to Harris’ 224, so perhaps Trump’s appearance on The Undertaker’s podcast helped Trump more than people realized. Regardless, The Undertaker will do what he sees fit and that’s unlikely to change anytime soon.
