HHH Talks Gronk

Following speculation that New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski might be retiring from football after the Super Bowl on Sunday, Triple H spoke with Sports Illustrated and had the following to say on Gronk possibly pursuing a career in WWE.

“Gronk has mentioned WWE before, that he loves it and said had so much fun doing it,” said Levesque. “I don’t know if it’s something he’d be seriously interested in, but that’s how the conversation started with Ronda Rousey, too. Certainly the door is open for him at WWE.”
