Rob Gronkowski is the new WWE 24/7 champion.
During tonight’s WrestleMania 36 event, Mojo Rawley was being attacked by a number of wrestlers over the championship, which spilled out into the ringside area. Gronkowski, who was on a perch nearby, leaped off the perch and into the group of wrestlers below. He then found Rawley and covered him to win his first WWE championship.
Rawley had won the championship during the first night of WrestleMania on Saturday. Gronk had attacked previous champion R-Truth and tried to pin him, but Rawley pushed him away and covered Truth instead to win the championship.
It was announced on March 11 that Gronkowski signed with WWE. Debuting on SmackDown days later, he announced that he would host this year’s WrestleMania. Mojo Rawley, who previously was on Raw, was moved to SmackDown due to his association with Gronkowski.
Gronkowski first appeared for WWE back at WrestleMania 33, helping Rawley win the Andre the Giant Memorial battle royal.
