    Donald Trump wins “hair match” at Wrestlemania, and Vince McMahon’s locks fall

    By MIKE HOUSEHOLDER
    Associated Press Writer
    DETROIT (AP) – One of the world’s most famous ’do’s – considered by many to be a fashion don’t – remains intact after its owner, Donald Trump, prevailed in Sunday night’s “hair match” at Wrestlemania.
    Trump trumped World Wrestling Entertainment owner Vince McMahon in the “Battle of the Billionaires” at the WWE’s largest annual pay-per-view event. After the real estate mogul and reality TV star triumphed, he gleefully took the shears to Mr. McMahon’s head.
    Trump and McMahon didn’t actually battle it out in the ring, but instead had WWE wrestlers representing them grapple to see who would go bald. The winner, Trump’s guy Bobby Lashley, bested McMahon’s chosen wrestler, Umaga.
    Trump wasn’t just a cheerleader during the match, however – he leaped off his feet at one point and drove McMahon into the ground, then pummeled him with some close-fisted punches.
    Lashley’s pinfall victory over the 300-plus-pound “Samoan Bulldozer” meant that McMahon had to yield to Trump’s razor and the locks fell. Wrestling legend and action film actor “Stone Cold” Steve Austin served as the special guest referee for the match at Ford Field, home of the NFL’s Detroit Lions.
    It wasn’t all laughs for Trump, though.
    After celebrating in the ring with a cold beer – Austin’s preferred post-victory beverage – an unsuspecting Trump was given a “Stunner” by Austin – he had his head driven into Austin’s shoulder. Lashley tended to Trump while Austin jogged toward the dressing room to the roaring approval of the crowd.
    The “sports entertainment” event was held fittingly on April Fool’s Day and was filled with loud music, pyrotechnics and screeching, flashbulb-snapping fans.
    The Trump-McMahon showdown was one of the featured matches at the 23rd edition of the professional wrestling extravaganza, which returned to Detroit after two decades.
    Wrestlemania 3, held at the Pontiac Silverdome in 1987, drew 93,000 fans and featured a seminal moment when Hulk Hogan bodyslammed Andre the Giant.
    Sunday’s event drew 80,103 fans, a new Ford Field record, breaking the previous record of 78,129 set during the December 2003 college BasketBowl between Michigan State and Kentucky.

    It was already scripted. And did you really think Trump was going to have a bald head? McMahon has done this schtick before. He's great at it.

    Trump would have played hell being bald. Scripted yes, but I'm actually shocked a 60-year-old man would tackle anyone on a hard floor like he did. Good shape or not.

    Highlight of the night - almost - was the Little Bastard's near win in the ladder money grab battle.

    It wasn't a very good stunner. They really should practice these things with the celebs they use.

    WWE website has a "Where Are They Now" section.

    Should be easy. They're all dead.

    Son of a bitch.

    Reminds me of an old Foxworthy joke: There's an empty K Mart somewhere.

    For Trump, being bald couldn't look half as bad as that awful 'do he has now. Someone ought to tell him to his face that combover makes him look like a giant douchebag.

    "The 'sports entertainment' event was held fittingly on April Fool’s Day..."

    What could this possibly mean?
