Rob Gronkowski Has Hilarious Thoughts About WWE Title Defense


Rob Gronkowski is coming back to the NFL but that won’t stop him from competing in the WWE.

Rob Gronkowski is one of the NFL’s most colorful characters and this season, he will be coming out of retirement to play with Tom Brady on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. During his brief retirement, Gronkowski kept himself occupied with various projects, including a stint in the WWE. Just last month, Gronk won the 24/7 title at WrestleMania and now, it’s up in the air whether or not he will ever get another WWE fight.

During a podcast with his brother Chris, Gronkowski expressed interest in defending his 24/7 title and noted that he has no clue how it would go down. Gronk had some pretty funny theories of how it could all go down; theories that included his new head coach, Bruce Arians.

“Imagine coming out of the meeting room, I’m like looking to my left down the hallway … looking to my right to make sure no one is out of the meetings yet, and then all of a sudden … Coach Arians just comes out of nowhere with a flying elbow and takes me out and pins me and becomes the 24/7 champ. That would be legendary. That would be an honor to lose to him,” Gronkowski said.

Balancing a career in the NFL and a WWE title is going to be very hard but if anyone can do it, it would most certainly be Gronk.

Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs Gifted Custom WWE Belt: First Look

Triple H is sending a WWE title to KC in honor of Super Bowl LIV victory.

The WWE is sending a custom championship belt to Kansas City in celebration of the Chiefs' first Super Bowl victory in 50 years. WWE icon Triple H shared a first look at the special edition Heavyweight Championship on Monday afternoon, congratulating head coach Andy Reid and Super Bowl LIV MVP Patrick Mahomes, as well as the rest of Chiefs Kingdom.

The black Heavyweight Championship is highlighted by an enormous, bejeweled WWE logo on the front, flanked by red side plates bearing the Chiefs logo and "Super Bowl LIV Champions."

The Chiefs join the likes of the 2019 Toronto Raptors, New England Patriots, the WNBA’s Seattle Storm and MLB’s Boston Red Sox, as some of the other professional sports franchises that have received custom WWE Titles in honor of their championship performances.

If everything goes according to plan, there may very well be several WWE Heavyweight Championships headed to Arrowhead Stadium in the near future. Mahomes, who is now eligible for an extension after completing three seasons, spoke about his desire to win a lot of football games in KC for a long time coming.

"That's stuff that's handled with other people,'' Mahomes said Monday, according to ESPN. "Obviously, I want to be in Kansas City for a long time. I understand that and also I want to win a lot of football games here.

"For me, it's kind of letting that stuff handle itself. I'm in a great organization. I have a great team of guys working for me, guys and girls. For me, it's about trusting those people and finding the best way to do it in order to have the best team around me.''
