Stormy Daniels mentions WWE while testifying about allegedly having sex with Donald Trump

On May 7th 2024, adult film star Stormy Daniels testified about having sex with former United States president Donald Trump during Trump’s hush money trial. Trump has been charged with falsifying business records to cover up hush money payments to Daniels, who claims she had an affair with him. Trump pleaded not guilty to the charges and denies her accusations.

Lawfare’s Tyler McBrien reported on the proceedings and noted that WWE was mentioned during Daniels’ testimony…

“Daniels says it sort of clicked for Trump that adult film stars are like athletes and performers, so then they spoke about WWE and wrestling, and about how Trump was friends with the owner, Vince McMahon. Trump was involved in a WWE scenario—if he ‘lost,’ McMahon would get to shave his head, and Donald Trump has always been very famous for his ‘do,’ she says. She asked what he’s gonna do if he loses, because ‘You do not have the head design to be without hair.'”
