Report: Rob Gronkowski 'close' to a deal with WWE

The longtime New England Patriots tight end is apparently closing in on a deal with the WWE, according to Wrestling Sheet’s Ryan Satin.

The terms of that deal are not yet set, and it’s unlikely that Gronkowski will be a regular face each week. According to Satin, however, the 30-year-old could make his debut later this month at Friday Night SmackDown in New Orleans.

Gronkowski has delved into the WWE world in the past, and made an appearance at WrestleMania 33 in 2017 where he fought alongside Mojo Rawley at the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal.
