Let's step away from the NFL Draft board for a moment. Between debating offensive tackles and edge rushers, we could all use a fun detour. With WrestleMania taking over this weekend, our minds naturally wander to a different kind of gridiron: the squared circle.
We've already seen Lions star Jahmyr Gibbs in Las Vegas getting into the spirit, facing off in WWE 2K26. It begs the ultimate off-season question: if you needed a tag-team partner from the Detroit Lions roster, who would you choose?
The first name that springs to mind is Penei Sewell. The man embodies the essence of a powerhouse wrestler: raw intensity, formidable strength, and a fearless demeanor. There's no doubt he could dominate in any ring. Plus, given his legendary pre-game speeches, he'd have no problem cutting a fiery, memorable promo to hype up the crowd.
But WWE is as much about showmanship as it is about strength. It requires incredible athleticism paired with magnetic personality. That's why a player like Jameson Williams is a fascinating pick. We know about his explosive speed and his celebratory backflips—now imagine that aerial ability launched from the top rope. Combined with his electric energy, he'd be a highlight-reel superstar.
So, who's your pick? Which Lion has the perfect blend of grit, charisma, and athleticism to become a WWE champion? Share your ideal tag-team pairing below!
