Jim Ross took a break from his podcast to sit down with “Aol” for an interview. During the interview, he was asked about the possibility of Rob Gronkowski wrestling for the WWE once his NFL career is over. Ross had a detailed response. Here are the highlights:

On Whether He Thinks Gronk Could End Up In The WWE:

If I was gambling, I’d gamble on that it’d happen. He’s had a lot of injuries. I don’t see him being a full-time guy, but I can see him, if he’s trained correctly and he’s promoted in a deliberate, effective way, that he could be very valuable.

On Why He Thinks A Part Time Schedule Could Be On The Table For Gronk:

I think you’ll see as time goes on that because the money has gotten so much better – because of tv rights deals they’ve [the WWE] got a lot more capital to play with – they can afford to pay guys inflated salaries for less work.

On What He’d Need To Know Before Making A Decision On Signing Gronk:

You’d need to ascertain what his commitment was for training, are you gonna take the business seriously and train as such so he’s protecting himself and his adversaries or is it just kind of a big joke?

On Whether He Thinks Gronk Has What It Takes To Be Successful:

Does he have the look? Yeah. Is he athletic? Yeah. Those are obvious answers, but to get him trained and working hard and sore and see what his commitment is, you don’t know if he’s long-term or if he’s a one-off guy at Wrestlemania.
