What is it with Indianapolis Colts specialists and professional wrestling? First Pat McAfee, now Rodrigo Blankenship? While Blankenship probably won’t be following McAfee’s footsteps from the football field to the squared circle anytime soon, he probably could. He's got a pretty good in.
During a Zoom conversation with local media on Tuesday, the eclectic Colts rookie kicker nonchalantly referenced his years-long friendship with professional wrestling icon Ric Flair.
Wait. What? The Nature Boy? The stylin' and profilin', limousine-ridin', jet flyin', kiss-stealin', wheelin' n' dealin' son of a gun?
Yeah, Blankenship said coolly.
