Late Night Grin.

While we fully support the slapping of Logan Paul, Brady is better than this. It’s beneath him to be dicking around with some goofy WWE storyline so that he can have a one-day, live-action fantasy camp at Wrestlepalooza or whatever they call one of the various events that are now hyped relentlessly by ESPN throughout the year. I loved pro wrestling at one point in my life. My dad used to take me to the matches when they came to the venue in our town. And I’d get pissed when he told me it was fake, even though I sensed that grown men didn’t fight by stomping a foot on the mat every time they landed a punch with no follow-through of any kind. I watched it on TV when it was known as “studio wrestling,” because they literally taped the matches in a TV studio in Pittsburgh. I followed it closely as it began to grow in popularity in the ‘80s, thanks to the likes of Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and Andre The Giant. And, yes, NFL players have been connected to pro wrestling. The second Wrestlemania, split between three cities, featured a collection of current and former pro football players (including William “The Refrigerator” Perry) in a 20-man battle royal. Lawrence Taylor was part of the main event at Wrestlemania, nine years later. But this one seems different. It feels contrived, gratuitous. Whether it’s about money or ego, someone should tell Brady to knock it off.
