Former WWE Superstar and current Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs recently spoke in DeKalb County at the local Republican Party’s Reagan Day Picnic on Saturday, September 16, 2023. Mayor Jacobs was greeted by many local Republicans and wrestling fan enthusiasts. He was gracious to pose for pictures and share words of support for Republicans and fellow Tennesseans alike.
“While many know him as the WWE Hall of Famer, Kane, Mayor Jacobs is a rising star in Republican circles because of the work he is doing in Knox County,” said Ryan Mollinet, Chairman of the DeKalb County Republican Party. “He has a great personal story of growing up in humble beginnings, to becoming an international WWE Legend, to serving his community as Mayor. His conservative approach of holding the line on taxes while supporting the needs of his community–like schools, law enforcement, and emergency services–have earned him respect and support from many Tennesseans. We appreciate Mayor Jacobs coming to DeKalb County to support our local Republican Party.”
Other business at the Reagan Day Picnic included recognizing all the Gold and Silver event sponsors and all elected officials in attendance. Party leaders also reviewed the Republican Party’s election successes in 2022, and highlighted the key local, states, and federal races in 2024.
