Chiefs’ Travis Kelce Says He’s Spoken to The Miz About WWE Role

Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has had a busy offseason, celebrating his Super Bowl LVII win in a variety of ways, including hosting Saturday Night Live and throwing out the first pitch at a Guardians game. Now, for his next move, he may be about to enter the wrestling ring.

Kelce told TMZ that he and The Miz have discussed a role with the WWE.

“My guy George Kittle was at WrestleMania throwing clotheslines left and right, man. It was awesome to see him go nuts, but I got to get involved somehow, someway,” Kelce said. “Me and the Miz have been talking a little bit about it so hopefully, we can brew something into fruition here.”

As Kelce explained, 49ers tight end George Kittle joined The Miz and Pat McAfee at WrestleMania 39 last month at SoFi Stadium, which resulted in Kittle and McAfee teaming up to take down The Miz.

Last month, Sports Illustrated’s Robin Lundberg spoke with Kelce, and the two discussed the possibility of Kelce teaming up with Kittle in the WWE at some point.

“George absolutely killed it at WrestleMania. He made me want to be a part of that,” Kelce said. “Hopefully we can get that tag team in store here sometime soon.”

Kelce also revealed to Lundberg what his ideal wrestling move would be.

“My dream scenario: off the top ropes, putting someone through a table,” Kelce said. “That’s always been my favorite.”
