Mojo Rawley and Rob Gronkowski have been friends for many years, even before Rawley sought a career in WWE. The two men bonded over football, and they were able to bring their friendship to WWE programming on several occasions.

Back at WrestleMania 33, Gronkowski made a shocking appearance when he was able to help his long-time friend win the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal for the first time.

Gronk later reappeared in WWE last year, and he won the 24/7 Championship at WrestleMania 36. Rawley won the Championship on Night One of the show when he pushed Gronk out of the way and pinned R-Truth. The following night, Gronk jumped from an elevated platform to take out his best friend and win the 24/7 Championship.

"Gronk" has since returned to the NFL, and Rawley has had very little TV time over the past year. As of this writing, it's unclear whether the former NFL star will return to WWE programming at any point in the near future.
