Rob Gronkowski got a special one-on-one lesson before ‘WrestleMania 36’

1. Vince McMahon is crazy. That’s not a secret, and we don’t mean that in a derogatory way. We mean it in a fun way.

But every now and then you get a reminder of how crazy the WWE head honcho really is.

That brings us to this just-released clip from earlier this year during the afternoon of WrestleMania 36.

Rob Gronkowski was set to win the 24/7 title that night after jumping onto a bunch of wrestlers off a 10-foot platform in a “trust fall” type of way. 

During rehearsals earlier that day, the future Hall of Fame tight end had to practice the spot. Who was there to give Gronk the lesson on how to execute the move? The 74-year old chairman of the board, who happily threw himself off the platform. I repeat, the 74-year-old owner of the company threw himself off a 10-foot platform to show Rob Gronkowski had to do it.
