SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS All-Pro tight end George Kittle was ringside at WrestleMania 39, and he wasn't a passive spectator. Kittle began taunting WWE villain The Miz during his match against former NFL punter and current ESPN personality Pat McAfee.
The Miz shoved Kittle, who hopped over a barricade, ran at the 6-foot-2, 221-pound heel and clotheslined him. Kittle then positioned The Miz so McAfee could land a move from the top rope.
"Hope you had fun," 49ers general manager John Lynch later texted, according to Kittle. "Don't do that again."
Kittle said he didn't inform the team he would be getting physical during the WWE match in April 2023. His philosophy was "just don't get hurt, and we won't have any problems with anything."
