Although he mentioned going to WrestleMania in his post, it was still unclear if this was a joke or not. The Viper’s invite confirms the news for fans. Indeed, fans who are following WWE, as well as the Cowboys, will be especially excited. Parsons has had an insane impact on the team in his first year.
It is befitting that WrestleMania will take place at the AT&T Stadium, as it is the Cowboys’ home. It seems the wrestling fans will be in for a treat with the Pro-bowler in attendance.

The rookie linebacker put the NFL world on notice as he finished second in the whole league in DPOY voting. He put up 84 tackles, 20 out of them for a loss and 13 sacks. He even had a mammoth 30 QB hits for the season.
Achieving all of this in just his rookie season might warrant a big off-season for the Defensive Rookie of the Year. And just like other WWE fans, maybe even Parsons wanted to be part of the WrestleMania.

Interestingly, none other than Brock Lesnar will headline WrestleMania 38. The beast will fight Roman Reigns for the WWE and Universal Championships in a title vs title match. The WWE fans wanted someone new to get a shot at the title. But Mr Vince McMahon had other plans. He wished to push Brock Lesnar. So then that is what the WWE will do.
WrestleMania will be a two-day pay-per-view event. Historically, it has seen many legendary matches take place and was also the venue for Undertaker’s longstanding undefeated streak, which incidentally was broken by Brock Lesnar himself.
