Donald Trump Puts His Hair On The Line

Now That’s A Concept To Wrestle With

And so the next big wrestling match is between Vince McMahon and Donald Trump. Right? Well, not quite. Trump and McMahon will indeed go head-to-head against each other in the ``Battle of the Billionaires’’ at Wrestlemania 23 on April 1 in Detroit - but they won’t actually be trading headlocks and half-Nelsons.
Each man will pick a wrestler to represent him in the ring. If McMahon’s man loses, the WWE stalwart will shave his head and (wait for it) if Trump’s wrestler loses, The Donald will have the razor taken to his scalp immediately. I missed the original story posted on The Detroit News, but I couldn’t help wondering if the date - April Fools’ Day - had any significance.
Not so, says RecordOnline.com. The website quotes WWE spokesman Gary Davis, who confirmed it was not a joke. ``If Trump loses, he shaves his head,'' Davis said.
