You might think of a school librarian when you hear "secretary of education, " but Linda McMahon isn't your typical pick. As the wife of WWE founder Vince McMahon, Linda has been deeply involved in the wrestling world for years, much like President Trump. She even ran the show as WWE's CEO.

Linda's past in the wrestling ring is now making headlines. Clips of her taking body slams have been spreading like wildfire on social media since her appointment. In one famous move, "Kane" slammed her with a tombstone piledriver, knocking her out on an episode of "Monday Night Raw. "

Linda's WWE days included some wild skits, like one where she and her kids, Stephanie and Shane McMahon, traded hits. But Linda isn't all about theatrics. She's served on the Connecticut Board of Education and has always been passionate about education. She even planned to become a teacher at one point.

After two unsuccessful Senate runs, Linda joined Trump's team. She supported his campaigns, worked in his administration, and even chaired a super PAC backing his re-election. Now, she's set to help shape Trump's new administration. Trump believes Linda will push for school choice and empower parents.
