          If New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski weren't a professional football player, perhaps he would be a professional wrestler. He's always seemed to enjoy the theatrics of wrestling.

          So it doesn't come as a big surprise that Gronkowski is ringside at Tuesday night's WWE SmackDown Live event in Connecticut.

          His back looks to be in pretty good shape, doesn't it?
