2. Donald Trump Has Jumped Ship

WWE isn't for everybody.

Low Ki requested his release in late 2010 because he tired of the politics and his broadly comedic role. Cody Rhodes in 2016 sagely surmised that, in order to rid himself of the Stardust stigma and become a more appealing prospect to WWE, he would have to cultivate a reputation as an internet darling on the independent circuit. Donald Trump has also tired of the WWE machine, and has sensationally jumped to the batsh*t crazy world of Japan's Dramatic Dream Team promotion. It's a perfect fit. Neither DDT nor Trump has even a tenuous grasp on reality.

"Trump" is now DDT's onscreen authority figure, and has taken to kissing referees and earnestly mouthing along to the U.S. national anthem with eyes firmly clenched shut. He has introduced a new wrestling match type to settle the ongoing dispute between Joey Ryan and Danshoku Dino - a Wrestling World War - and has confirmed that, with his power and money, "all problems will be nothing."

The only problem Trump has acknowledged (DDT is not known for its realism) is that he did not know what the rules of this World Wrestling War. After much analysis ruled out both the "Swap Parents Death Match" and "30 Years Iron Man Match", a computer revealed that the bout would take place under "Anal Explosion" rules.

Sad!
