10 Things WWE Fans Need To Know About Rob Gronkowski

1. There's An Erotic Novel Based On Him

Don't expect WWE to be so thrilled with another Gronk product.

Admittedly, this had nothing to do with the guy himself. Rob wasn't the one who penned an erotic novel about his life and career; it was a third-party release based on him called 'A Gronking To Remember'. Hell yes, this did actually happen, and Gronk even read it out on air during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

If one of WWE's commentators starts saying stuff like, 'Rob Gronked him into next week', or, 'Dolph Ziggler better be careful, Corey, otherwise he'll get a right good Gronking', then you know the company are aware of it. Indeed, their PR department has probs already sent memos out telling everyone to avoid the subject.

Seedy fan-fiction is nothing new when it comes to celebrities, of course, and Gronkowski was a good sport by acknowledging the novel at all. WWE, corporate company that they are, won't do the same thing. Energy drinks are one thing, but sexy books are another.

Also no, there's absolutely zero context to that picture with Captain Obvious, but when else would a writer get the chance to use something so ridiculous?
