Ventura claimed that Trump being in a wrestling Hall of Fame despite never competing inside the squared circle was a “tragedy.” He highlighted how his friend Ken Patera, a former Olympian who had a 25-year wrestling career, was not in the promotion’s Hall of Fame.

“Trump being a Hall of Famer is a tragedy. This guy has never been in the ring. I got a good friend, Ken Patera, [an] Olympian, first man to overhead press 500 pounds. 25 years in the wrestling business. Kenny Patera is not in the Hall of Fame. Donald Trump does not belong in the wrestling Hall of Fame,” Ventura said.

The 74-year-old added that when he was talking about a former pro wrestler being in the White House, he was referring to himself, not Trump. Ventura concluded by accusing the current US president of stopping an investigation into McMahon in return for a WWE Hall of Fame induction.

“When I was referring to putting a wrestler in the White House, I was talking about me, not him [Trump]. I was the former Governor of Minnesota. I’m the only real former wrestler. I don’t include him. He’s [Trump] only in the Hall of Fame because he stopped an investigation against Vince McMahon (…) s**ual stuff.” (H/T: ITR Wrestling)

The WWE icon took shots at Donald Trump

Before accusing Donald Trump of stopping an investigation into Vince McMahon, Jesse Ventura took shots at the US president earlier this year. Speaking to FOX 9, the Hall of Famer called the 79-year-old politician a “draft-dodging coward”.

“I spent 17 months in Southeast Asia while the draft-dodging coward was playing golf. Most of my friends and I are Vietnam veterans. The rich white boys never had to go, did they? Yet he’s going to tell me what courage is?” Ventura said. [H/T: Fightful]

It will be interesting to see if and when Ventura appears on the Stamford-based promotion’s programming again.
