The king of the “kip-up” gave Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft a perfect rating on his performance of the move during Thursday night’s loss to the Detroit Lions.
In the third quarter, Kraft caught a pass from Jordan Love and rumbled for 21 yards. He leapt to avoid a tackle attempt and got smacked to the ground, but Kraft responded with a kip-up — a move when someone goes from supine (on the ground) to a standing position.
WWE’s Shawn Michaels mastered the move during his wrestling career, so his opinion carries weight — and he loved Kraft’s rendition at Ford Field.
