The feud between Linda McMahon and Kane was referenced on “Saturday Night Live”.
WWE co-founder Linda McMahon was confirmed as the United States Secretary of Education earlier this week. Given her ties to WWE, there has already been some crossover. Triple H recently said that McMahon was asked about John Cena’s heel turn at the State of the Union Address. McMahon’s past with WWE has been used as a punchline as well.
On the March 8th episode of “Saturday Night Live”, Colin Jost brought up Linda McMahon during “Weekend Update.”
“Education Secretary and WWE co-founder Linda McMahon, who’s the one on the right, said that closing the Department of Education would not hurt students, and actually test scores might go up. Maybe even as high as 69.”
The screen showed a picture of Kane hitting McMahon with a Tombstone Piledriver as Jost joked about the test scores.
