Politics Isn't Like the Ring, Says Former WWE Star

Glenn Jacobs, the mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, and formerly known as Kane in the WWE, has some advice for Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson: stay away from politics. Jacobs, who has also dabbled in politics, thinks it's not worth it. Politics is tough, he says. It's full of fights and arguments. And guess what? No matter what you say, half the people won't like it. Johnson, who's been in the wrestling ring and on the big screen, might think he can handle the political stage. But Jacobs warns that it's not the same. In wrestling, you can be loved even if you're the bad guy. Not so in politics. There have been whispers about Johnson joining the political circus for a while now. Last year, he even said that political parties had come to him, asking if he'd run for president. But Johnson has always said he's not a big fan of politics. Jacobs, who knows a thing or two about both wrestling and politics, thinks Johnson should stick to what he's good at. Jacobs started his career in the ring way back in 1997. He's held many titles, including the WWE Championship and the World Heavyweight Championship. He's been a part of some of WWE's biggest stories. Now, he's using his experience to guide Johnson. He says that politics can be brutal. It can turn fans against you. And that's something Johnson might not want. But who knows? Maybe one day, we'll see The Rock in the White House. For now, though, Kane just doesn't think it's a good idea.
