“Miz sucks, you own him”- NFL fans hype up George Kittle after 49ers TE headlines WrestleMania with Pat McAfee

George Kittle is a huge WWE fan and got the chance to live out a childhood dream with help from Pat McAfee. Kittle's attendance at WrestleMania played a major role when McAfee appeared at the live event. Kittle was in the crowd's front row as the former NFL punter entered the ring with WWE superstar The Miz.

After words were exchanged, rapper Snoop Dogg had a match between McAfee and The Miz. The WWE superstar was ready to leave but not before shoving Kittle. The All-Pro tight end didn't take that too kindly, jumping over the barricade to give The Miz a powerful clothesline.

Ultimately, McAfee won the match thanks to Kittle's assistance. NFL fans took to Twitter to share their love for the San Francisco 49ers star during WrestleMania:

Some fans would love to see Kittle and McAfee as a tag team somewhere down the road:

George Kittle isn't the first tight end to participate in WrestleMania as former NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski did so twice. Gronkowski was initially at WrestleMania 33 and helped his friend, former WWE superstar Mojo Rawley, win a battle royal match.

At WrestleMania 36, the four-time Super Bowl champion became the 24/7 Champion.

George Kittle and his WWE fandom

The 49ers star was in attendance at last year's WrestleMania in Arlington, Texas. Kittle had dropped hints of his WWE fandom in various interviews, but it came out during an appearance on ESPN's First Take. He had the chance to meet his idol, WWE Hall of Famer Stone Cold Steve Austin.

George Kittle became a fan of Austin’s from watching the Attitude era of WWE programming growing up. We'll see if the 29-year-old will step into the ring as a competitor in the near future.
