WrestleMania fever just went down and WWE fans still can’t get over the thrills, surprises, and breathtaking moments the event brought with it. Night 1 was the biggest blockbuster, with various super amazing matches, including a surprise impromptu one between The Miz and Pat McAfee.

The NFL crossover also involved the 49 ers tight end George Kittle, who entered the ring to help McAfee clinch the win. McAfee himself believes Kittle did a commendable job despite having no prior experience in the ring and largely appreciated the effort.

During a recent episode of his The Pat McAfee show, the former football punter recalled Kittle’s contribution to his win. McAfee noted, ‘Miz is going to leave as soon as I saw George showcase that tank top I knew there was a chance George might do something special. I grabbed that rep I go excuse me. I think I ripped my d*** and I put it in my knee. You know, like I was just trying to distract him as much as possible. George laid him hot. What a larriot, what a clothesline, what a celebration. I think if you look at the shoulder bump, I think I got him a little bit. I think my shoulder would probably be a little higher than his shoulder; it felt like there was little powers all jacked up but George kittle was fantastic.’

Kittle has been an avid WWE fan. He often has been spotted in various wrestling shows. Kittle was also there at last year’s WrestleMania in Dallas, Texas. He also rose to headlines by making the ‘Cero miedo’ hand gesture of popular AEW star Panta el Zero Miedo. But WrestleMania 39 surpassed all his past connections with wrestling, as it is the first time when the wrestling universe recognized his in-ring potential.

So, it’s not very wrong for fans to expect the 29-year-old star to have his first full-fledged professional wrestling match the soonest.
