The Super Bowl is considered the biggest sporting event in America. This year, hundreds and thousands of Americans tuned in to watch the Tampa Bay Buccaneers win their second title in history. Needless to say, our very own WWE Superstars reacted in various ways to the event.
Many of the Superstars are huge fans of Football and tuned in to watch the game. During and after the match, Superstars took to Twitter and shared their thoughts on Buccaneers as well as the star Quarterback Tom Brady.
Tom Brady, a living legend, won his seventh Super Bowl ring (his first with Tampa Bay). He also became the oldest quarterback (43) to win a Super Bowl.

Following the match, WWE Legend and EVP of Global Talent Strategy & Development, Triple H, shared a cheeky post. He posted a picture of the WWE title and captioned it as, “Congratulations to Tom Brady and the Buccaneers on an incredible performance in the Super Bowl. From the WWE ThunderDome to RJ Stadium, Enjoy this WWE custom title … Gronk will know what to do with it!!!”

‘The Game’ is referring to Tampa Bay tight end, Rob Gronkowski. The four-time Super Bowl champion is also the longest-reigning 24/7 champion. He held the title for almost 2 months after winning it at WrestleMania last year.
John Cena also shared a congratulatory post. In classic Cena style, he posted a photoshopped image of Tom Brady with the WWE title. But the title had Super Bowl trophies instead of the WWE logo.
