Back in 2007, Vince McMahon wound up being “killed” after being blown up in a limo explosion.

The angle, which was dropped due to the Chris Benoit murder-suicide that took place several weeks later, resulted in a call from former President and convicted felon Donald Trump to make sure his friend was okay.

During Netflix’s Mr. McMahon docuseries, former WWE head writer Brian Gewirtz revealed that Trump called WWE to make sure the now-disgraced WWE Chairman was doing okay.

McMahon said, “The edit was perfect. Many individuals called the office, ‘Is Vince okay?’”

Gewirtz added, “Vince wanted to treat it like real life. The site treated it like it was real. The announcers were somber. In fact, from what I’ve heard, Donald Trump called up Vince’s office to make sure Vince was okay. That became a controversial storyline. Certain tragic circumstances in real life happened that forced us to stop that storyline.”
