ORIGINAL: It’s official: the WWE has come to the White House. Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he is nominating Linda McMahon to head up the Small Business Administration under his presidency. The announcement was made earlier today, with the President-elect saying of McMahon in a statement:

“Linda has a tremendous background and is widely recognized as one of the country’s top female executives advising businesses around the globe. She helped grow WWE from a modest 13-person operation to a publicly traded global enterprise with more than 800 employees in offices worldwide. Linda is going to be a phenomenal leader and champion for small businesses and unleash America’s entrepreneurial spirit all across the country.”

McMahon had previously been under consideration for Secretary of Commerce, a position that went to Wilbur Ross. McMahon took to Twitter to comment on the announcement, posting:

Honored to be appointed by President-Elect @realDonaldTrump to serve as head of @SBAgov advocating for our small businesses & entrepreneurs!
