The NBA’s hiatus to help slow the spread the COVID-19 presents Blazer’s Edge with the opportunity to highlight the questions that often infiltrate the back of our minds and silly conversations. Today’s questions was spurred by Rob Gronkowski’s imminent signing with the WWE, a move that will take him from the NFL to professional wrestling.

Felton, is an obvious choice due to decade-long boo-inducing place as a heel in front of the Moda Center crowd.
