WWE Superstars React To Donald Trump As President

Donald Trump is now the President-Elect, and the reactions are starting to pour in on social media. That includes the superstars, legends, and upper management of WWE, and as expected there aren't many reactions in the middle.

The biggest names not to share their reactions are Vince McMahon, Triple H, and Stephanie McMahon, but Linda McMahon did chime in, saying: "What a night! Thrilled to congratulate my friend, President-Elect Donald Trump on a hard-fought campaign and victory. @realDonaldTrump"

The McMahons support isn't a surprise, as Linda McMahon herself donated $6 million to Trump's Rebuilding America Now super PAC, as well as $5 million to the Donald J Trump foundation along with her husband Vince. Up till this point, current and former stars had been told to avoid the topic of Trump, but not that he's President they've started sharing reactions on Twitter (via CageSideSeats).

There were others who threw their support behind Trump's election, like Jerry Lawler and Bubba Ray Dudley. Lawler specifically called out the lack of name calling from Trump supporters.

Ironic. I've not seen one tweet from a gloating Trump supporter today but I've seen hundreds of hateful, & obscene ones from Hillary's side.

Many people asking...

"How did the media get it so wrong?"

Because they have been lying to you every step of the way.

There were also plenty of superstars saddened at the news, including Renee Young, Sasha Banks, Austin Creed, AJ Brooks, and Sami Zayn.

Unbelievable. This doesn't feel real.

Horrible nightmare last night. It was so weird, I was in Germany but the U.S. was Germany now? But from like, 80 years ago? So weird? Scary.

Many superstars took a stance somewhere in the middle, including Corey Graves, who made the case that no matter who is President, it still falls on you to be successful. Other stars in this realm were John Layfield, Beth Copeland, Lana, Matt Hardy, and Dolph Ziggler.

If you like it, great. If you don't, make the best of it, and you get to try again in 4 years. We still live in a great country.#PMA

Once upon a time, I was on welfare. And I worked my ass off to get where I'm at. Period. No president helped me. You're no different. #PMA

Hey America, either candidate was going to be controversial. I voted for Bloomberg-but, can we all get along now and quit the name calling?

— John Layfield (@JCLayfield) November 9, 2016

I believe in love and respect. I believe in fairness, equality and humanity above all. That is what I will teach my daughters. Goodnight.

— Beth Copeland (@TheBethPhoenix) November 9, 2016

Today America better to lose count while naming your blessings than to lose your blessings to counting your troubles...

— Lana (@LanaWWE) November 9, 2016

To @realDonaldTrump,

You now have an obligation to all Americans, no matter their race, gender or SO, to be a better man. Make it happen.

— #BROKEN Matt Hardy (@MATTHARDYBRAND) November 9, 2016

i don't think those voting for trump hate that a woman would be president, I think it's anti-establishment.
right place/wrong time
for both

— Dolph Ziggler (@HEELZiggler) November 9, 2016

If you need a pick me up after all this politics talk, you can always rely on good old Mick Foley, who reminds everyone that Christmas is right around the corner.

Never change Mick, never change. Onwards to Christmas!
