No matter which team he plays for, may it be the Yankees, Mets, Tigers and Dodgers rosters before joining the Blue Jays, Curtis Granderson is one of the most likable players in Major League Baseball. Not only is he a multiple-season MLB All-Star, but also he is known for his extensive charity work off the field, earning him a Marvin Miller Man Of The Year.

If rumors are true, as part of his endorsing Nike, Rawlings and Louisville Slugger, Granderson made these companies donate equipment to baseball programs within inner-cities and/or contribute money to his charitable foundation in lieu of an endorsement fee.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Furthermore, as a hand-picked ambassador for Major League Baseball's international efforts, Granderson has traveled to Europe, Asia, and Africa to help promote the sport of baseball.

Therefore, it is a great thing for WWE to have a big life-long fan in Granderson. He was in attendance for WrestleMania 23 in Detroit and has been spotted at WWE house shows over the years, beyond once doing a walk-out during a TNA pay-per-view. If rumors are correct, Granderson's WWE favorite wrestlers of all-time include The Undertaker, Hulk Hogan, "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Junkyard Dog, and the Ultimate Warrior.
