The WWE wants to recruit more stars from other sports

WWE wants to continue recruiting stars from other sports. In addition to the signing of Ronda Rousey, a new name could be added. It is Rob Gronkowski, who plays for the New England Patriots of the NFL.

The 28-year-old offensive player has been of interest to WWE for some time, but the approach began after his team lost Super Bowl 2018. Many rumors have surfaced about Gronkowski's career, with some saying he would retire from the NFL to start his professional wrestling career.

Even Gronkowski himself has not denied this fact, only clarifying that he will evaluate his future during the offseason. According to David Meltzer, a journalist from Wrestling Observer, WWE would be willing to offer him a contract similar to that of Rousey: part-time.

His best friend and former NFL player, Mojo Rawley, would help make this happen. In addition, the SmackDown superstar once stated that Gronkowski's incorporation into WWE is a fact, the question is when it will happen.
