WWE legend known as The Undertaker cut his own election promo in a video posted to social media on Friday after pro wrestling star Dave Bautista, known as Bautista, took shots at former President Donald Trump earlier in the week.

The Undertaker, whose real name is Mark Callaway, was seen on a video next to his former WWE colleague Kane, the current mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, whose real name is Glenn Jacobs, and Trump and addressed potential voters about their options come Election Day.

“All right everyone. November 5th – ElectionMania. The choice is yours. You can go with President Trump, Kane and The Undertaker or you can take Kamala Harris, Dave Bautista and Tim Walz. Choose wisely – the nation depends on it,” Callaway said in a TikTok vieo.

“And that should be an easy choice,” Trump added.

The Republican presidential nominee’s appearance with the wrestling greats came after Bautista made a video firing shots left and right at Trump as he expressed his support for Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz for president.

“Fellas, we gotta talk,” Bautista said in part. “A lot of men seem to think that Donald Trump is some kind of tough guy. He’s not. I mean, look at him, he wears more make-up than Dolly Parton. He whines like a baby. The guy is afraid of birds. Donald Trump had his daddy pay a doctor to say his little feet hurt, so he could dodge the draft. Look at that gut. It’s like a garbage bag full of buttermilk.”

His rant was accompanied by various related images and clips of Trump during his presidency and campaign.

In a comment to Fox News Digital on Wednesday, Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung pushed back, calling Bautista a “stone-cold loser” and mocked his WWE career.

      I’m with you. I grew up in the 80s and 90s and even though I was never super into wrestling it was just part of my childhood. The Undertaker was so cool back then. I’m still not into wrestling and haven’t really thought about it in years but reading about that endorsement was a bit of a gut punch to my inner child.

      It’s almost like I was Mankind in 1998 and The Undertaker threw me off Hell In A Cell and I plummeted 16 feet through an announcer’s table or something.

        Your inner child might be happy to know that Mick Foley (Mankind) is not a Trump supporter, and has even asked that Trump be removed from WWE’s Hall of Fame.
