Donald Trump Drops Cash on WWE(R) Fans
STAMFORD, CT, Jan. 30 - Last night, at a WWE event in Dallas, Texas billionaire Donald Trump dropped thousands of dollars of cash on the audience. "It was raining money," said one enthusiastic WWE fan.
Fan appreciation night was the theme of WWE Monday Night RAW(R) on The Score (10-12 pm ET/PT). WWE Chairman and fellow billionaire, Vince McMahon, showed his appreciation by presenting one lucky fan in the sold out American Airlines Center with a giant poster of himself, only to be out done and embarrassed by Trump's generosity. "These two massive egos appear to be on a collision course," said an anonymous source at USA Network.
