Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. revealed he had some high-level help getting his niece a shot in the wrestling world. Speaking on Thursday at an event for medical students and future doctors, Kennedy said he worked with Education Secretary Linda McMahon to help his niece, Zoe Hines, land a contract with WWE. McMahon—who ran the wrestling organization as its CEO for 12 years before joining the Trump administration—played a key role in the deal, Kennedy said. Noting that Hines had grown “very, very close” with the education chief and that McMahon had “a lot to do” with the opportunity. Zoe Hines is the daughter of Rebecca Hines, who is the sister of Kennedy’s wife, actress Cheryl Hines. She initially tried out for the organization in 2025 and shared her excitement at the time on Instagram, writing she was “grateful for the opportunity, the experience, and the people.” She added that she would be “honored to represent the WWE at the 2025 SummerSlam tryout.” SummerSlam, one of WWE’s flagship events, was co-founded by McMahon and her husband, wrestling mogul Vince McMahon.
