NFL Legend Teases WWE WrestleMania 41 Appearance
Since WWE WrestleMania 41 is in Las Vegas, a legendary former NFL player has suggested that he could be there.
There have been many pro athletes who have appeared on WWE programming because the company knows that it’s smart to have athletes who have a crossover appeal. In today’s era, a lot of fans follow WWE and sports on social media, so a clip of an athlete interacting with WWE superstars could go viral.
At WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia, Lane Johnson of the Eagles and the recently retired Jason Kelce appeared to assist Rey Mysterio, and the Philly crowd loved it. Others like George Kittle of the NFL’s San Francisco 49ers and future Hall of Famer Rob Gronkowski have gotten involved in the past. Gronk even held the “coveted” WWE 24/7 Title at one point.
Tom Brady is considered by many people to be the NFL’s GOAT (Greatest of All Time) because of his record 7 Super Bowl wins – 6 with New England and 1 with Tampa Bay. He also holds many NFL records for Quarterbacks for Wins, Touchdowns, Passing Yards, Playoff Wins and numerous others.
After retiring from the NFL at the age of 45 years old, Brady moved to the commentary booth for FOX. In addition to that, he is also a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders play their home games at Allegiant Stadium, which is where WrestleMania 41 will take place on April 19 & April 20.
While speaking to Fox News, Brady teased that he may be at WrestleMania 41.
“I may be there, but it’s amazing what’s going on there and it’s amazing what’s happening with WWE and all the different things surrounding that.”
It has yet to be mentioned by WWE if Tom Brady will be there, but if he is there, then he’ll likely appear on camera.
