Nothing to see here…just Bob Uecker hanging out with WWE chairman and CEO Vince McMahon.

What could be dismissed as just a photo op for McMahon and the Milwaukee Brewers longtime announcer (WWE was in Brew City earlier in the week) actually goes deeper than that. You see, WWE welcomed the baseball Hall of Famer (and two-time WrestleMania announcer) into their own version of Cooperstown back in April 2010.
And when they inducted “Mr. Baseball” in their proverbial hallowed halls, it wasn’t exactly the first time the WWE Hall of Fame has had baseball on its mind. In 2004, they welcomed all-time hit king Pete Rose and, three years later, baseball Hall of Famer Wade Boggs inducted his longtime friend “Mr. Perfect” Curt Hennig.
Wrestling. Baseball. I’ll let you make the hackneyed steroid jokes.
