NFL legend and WWE analyst Pat McAfee recently weighed in on the concept of ‘outsiders’ performing in WWE. McAfee is well aware of the fact that he is facing Adam Cole tonight at Takeover XXX as an ‘outsider’ to wrestling, but he fully intends on not ‘disrespecting’ the business.
McAfee started his recent interview on Busted Open Radio with the following comments.
“Just like most wrestling fans, I would assume, when I watch and I’d see the ‘outsider’ come in? You KNOW when they were just taking advantage of a marketing opportunity with the WWE”
McAfee would also call out Jost and Che (of SNL fame) for their WrestleMania 35 performances.
“I mean I’ll never forget when I was at that WrestleMania getting chewed out by Michael Cole for having tuxedo shorts on. I saw the two stooges from Saturday Night Live walk in and the motherf*ckers look like they couldn’t even jump if they had to. They’re in a WrestleMania match and it was just a completely disrespectful thing to the business.”
Pat McAfee would finish by going in on the Heavyweight Champion of the world, Tyson Fury.
“Tyson Fury, the Gypsy King? One of the greatest boxers of all time. I didn’t think his performance in the ring was that good either in the wrestling business.”
