'Tampon' Tim Walz Challenged To Charity Wrestling Match, Called Out By WWE Legend, Knox County's Glenn Jacobs
In one corner, we have the man formerly known as WWE's "Kane," Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs, challenging Minnesota Governor "Tampon" Tim Walz to a charity wrestling match.
The tale of the tape paints a grim picture: Walz, at 6 feet and 210 lbs., risks getting twisted into a pretzel by the towering 7-foot, 320-lb. Jacobs.
But with charity at stake, the spotlight’s on Walz to rise to the challenge, all while answering for the sharp digs he’s recently aimed at Republicans.
Will the DNC's image of ‘masculinity’ accept Jacobs' offer?

Glenn ‘Kane’ Jacobs Gives Tampon Tim Walz Offer He Can't Refuse
Jacobs, who boasts an impressive WWE career, issued the challenge after catching some brow-raising comments made by Walz on Gavin Newsom’s podcast.
Tampon Tim declared that he could kick President Donald Trump supporters' as*es.
During Thursday’s March Madness chaos, Jacobs publicly called out Walz to step into the ring.
"All joking aside, @GovTimWalz , let's put our money where our mouth is...in a charity wrestling match. We'll split the gate 50/50 between our chosen organizations. I'll kick things off myself with a $10,000 donation. What do you say? #TennesseeWalz #LetsDance."
"I think I could kick most of their a**!" Walz told Newsom on the podcast episode released Tuesday.

"I do think that," he added, "I know I can outrun them. I don’t know if we’re going to fall into that place where we, okay, we challenge you to, you know, a WWE fight here, type of thing."
Clay Bets Big … Who Will He Pick … ?
Looking at a potential Tim Walz Versus Kane wrestling match, OutKick founder Clay "The Flute" Travis reacted to Jacobs' challenge, saying he'd throw in major cash for the proposed charity event … should Walz man up and accept.
"I’ll put up $10k on this, too," CT said on X.
All Bark, No Bite
Since the comments from Walz, Mayor Jacobs hasn't pulled any punches on social media.
"With that steely stare and chiseled physique, who wouldn’t be intimidated seeing this across the ring from you?" Jacobs posted, alongside an AI-generated photo of Tampon wearing a rainbow unitard.
Having supported trans athletes sharing locker rooms and competing with women, Walz seems comfortable with one-sided battles.
Walz approved Executive Order 19-27 and supported legislation (e.g., HF 1655) that protected transgender athletes' ability to compete against women. He also vouched for putting tampons in little boys' school restrooms.
Most importantly, the American people are on board and want to see a Kane versus Tampon showdown.
"I’d definitely pay to see Tampon Tim eat a tombstone and choke slam," one of fan responded.
