  Former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski nearing deal with WWE, per report

Chris Bumbaca, USA TODAY
 
 :reporter; Rob Gronkowski is apparently ready to start hitting people again.

 :coffee: ...
Not on the football field, :scratch: unfortunately for New England Patriots fans hoping the former tight end and three-time Super Bowl champ would return to the gridiron after one season of retirement.

 :popcorn: ....
Instead, "Gronk" will soon be taking his talents to the wrestling ring. :doah: According to Fox Sports, Gronkowski and Worldwide Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) are nearing a deal that could have him competing as soon as March 20 at a Friday Night Smackdown event.

Gronkowski, who retired from the NFL after nine seasons a year ago, famously appeared at WrestleMania 33 in 2017 in San Francisco, where he helped friend Mojo Rawley win the Andre the Giant Battle Royal.

At Gronkowski's Super Bowl party in Miami this year, WWE executives Paul "Triple H" Levesque and Stephanie McMahon attended. The tight end's former coach, Bill Belichick, also made the photo.

Win-win for both teams.  Pats get a 4th round pick for a 7th round one + a guy who wasn't going to play anyway.

The Bucks give up a little draft capital and take a flier on a former-monster in hopes of catching lightning in a bottle - which is what they are trying to do with Brady anyway.

I wonder how many games Gronk will miss due to injury.  :scratch:  Just sayin.

What a great talker and I wish them luck actually.  Would be fun to see them do well.
