Ups...

6. Gronk A Champion Again

You had to figure that WrestleMania 36 host Rob Gronkowski wouldn’t just show up at Mania and be a spectator.

The three-time NFL Super Bowl champion watched his buddy Mojo Rawley steal the 24/7 Championship out from under him on the first night of WM, and he vowed to leave Mania Sunday night with the title.

Sure enough, Mojo was pursued by a mob of jobbers into the arena, and they settled under the podium perch where Gronk was holding court. So Gronk proceeded to dive onto the group, wiping them out and pinning Rawley for the 24/7 title. And then he fled the arena with the championship.

Cute little bit, and it’ll probably get a ton of coverage on ESPN, considering how desperate they are for sports-related news these days.
