During WrestleMania season, WWE generally tends to screen more celebrity and athlete appearances. Logan Paul, Bad Bunny, Johnny Knoxville and Snoop Dogg are all examples of celebrities who have either made an appearance during recent editions of WrestleMania or were featured in a program leading up to the event. However, it appears one of the NFL’s most prolific tight ends could be the next athlete to appear on WWE television. Speaking on the “Wrestling Observation Radio”, Dave Meltzer explained that San Francisco 49ers player George Kittle could sign on with the company in the near future.
“I have a feeling George Kittle will be here soon, but yeah, I don’t know a date or anything like that.”
Kittle made a surprise appearance at WWE WrestleMania 39 when he got involved during a match between The Miz and Pat McAfee, hitting the “A-lister” with a clothesline to help McAfee earn the victory. Kittle said he was thrilled with his appearance at WrestleMania, explaining that “it was a dream” to have entered a WWE ring. He also said that McAfee and Triple H had his phone number and he would always return those calls if they contacted him. It remains to be seen if Kittle will make another small appearance for WWE, or if he will be the next athlete to get the opportunity to compete inside the squared circle.
