Pat McAfee Bout Added To WrestleMania 38 Sunday
Pat McAfee is wrestling on Sunday, Sunday, Sunday.
WWE announced that the bout between Pat McAfee and Austin Theory will take place on WrestleMania Sunday, which is set for April 3. The bout joins Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar on WrestleMania Sunday.
Pat McAfee will return to the squared circle on WrestleMania Sunday against a dangerous Superstar lookin to prove himself to Mr. McMahon, Austin Theory!
During his first live interview in 15 years on “The Pat McAfee Show,” WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon personally invited McAfee to compete at The Showcase of the Immortals, responding to the former NFL player’s tremendous connection to the WWE Universe.
McAfee first left his mark in a WWE ring when he made a series of memorable appearances in NXT. This included his fearless showing inside the unforgiving double steel structure of NXT TakeOver WarGames 2020. Since putting his gear on the shelves, the outspoken personality has endeared himself to fans as the color commentator on Friday Night SmackDown.
McAfee did not have to wait long to find out his opponent. Just one night after Mr. McMahon’s offer was extended, Austin Theory emerged to belittle the SmackDown commentator. After claiming that the WWE Chairman was simply setting up McAfee to get beat up at The Show of Shows, Theory informed him that he was his WrestleMania opponent. He then promised to beat McAfee to a pulp and slapped the headset right off his head.
Don’t miss all the action of the stupendous two-night WrestleMania, streaming LIVE on Saturday, April 2, and Sunday, April 3, at 8 ET/5 PT on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.
