Eight-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion The Rock recently met a legend in American football. The legend is none other than Deion Sanders.
This past weekend, during ESPN’s College GameDay, The People’s Champion made a surprise appearance. He showed up in support of the Colorado Buffaloes football team.
Deion Sanders is a legend in the world of pro football. He also played pro baseball for over a decade. Sanders is one of the few people to play pro football and baseball at the same time. “Prime Time” is also the only man to play in both a Super Bowl and a World Series and to hit an MLB home run and score an NFL touchdown in the same week.
The Great One took to Twitter to share a few positive words. He mentioned that he had some time to spare and thus showed up at ESPN’s Game Day, to support Deion Sanders.
“People’s Champ x @DeionSanders Came to Boulder to support my guy We go back. No blueprint for what this man is doing in college football. Feel the mana in the air. Electrifying morning!!!,” The Rock tweeted.
This past weekend on Friday night SmackDown, The People’s Champion also made a shocking return. He showed up and had a face-to-face interaction with former WWE United States Champion Austin Theory.
After the segment, Rock also met up with his former rival John Cena. The two shared a heartfelt moment and both hugged each other. The Cenation Leader also welcomed the Hollywood Megastar back to his home which is the world of professional wrestling.
A couple of days ago, it was revealed that the segment involving The People’s Champion crossed over 103 Million views throughout all social media platforms. It is the most-viewed WWE clip of this year.
