Rob Gronkowski Wants "One Crazy Match" In WWE

Retired NFL star Rob Gronkowski has said he would be up for "one crazy match" in WWE. 

Gronkowski, 30, retired from football after in March this year, after spending his entire professional career for the New England Patriots. 

Speaking to CBS Sports, Gronk said he would not want to be a full-time Superstar, but would be game for a one-off appearance.

He said: "Practice it for a little bit, go out there, like in a Royal Rumble, go out there, I got my friend in WWE [Mojo Rawley], practice it and do a full-on WWE match."

Fans may remember Gronkowski for his appearance at WrestleMania 33, where he helped Mojo win the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, last eliminating Jinder Mahal. 

Though Rob didn't want to put a time on when he'd feel ready for a WWE match, he did hint that it could be five years away. 

"I got the rest of my life to do that. I've always dreamed about doing that, just one time, going in there and going full out. That may be a possibility, one time, down the road," he said.
