Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has talents that extend beyond the football field.

We've already seen him do things such as host "Saturday Night Live" and "Are You Smarter than a Celebrity", as well have roles in the television series "Grotesquerie" and the movie "Happy Gilmore 2."

When Kelce retires, he will have opportunities in pretty much any field he wants to participate in. Among them could be one his childhood dreams, which he has not only the physical prowess to pull off, but also the personality.

Travis Kelce teases making an appearance in WWE with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson

Travis and Jason Kelce had Johnson on their New Heights podcast on Monday. Johnson, of course, was a professional wrester for WWE before transitioning into a full-time actor in the mid-2000s. In addition to acting, he also is a member of the board of directors for TKO Group Holdings, Inc., which now owns WWE.

One of the many subjects the Kelce brothers discussed with Johnson was Jason's appearance at WrestleMania 40 in 2024. Jason and his former Philadelphia Eagles teammate Lane Johnson had a run-in during a tag team match involving WWE legend Rey Mysterio.

The conversation then shifted to Travis, as Johnson asked him when he plans to take part in a WWE event.

"When the opportunity presents itself you know I'll dive in there," Travis said with enthusiasm. "I've been dreaming about this and been working on my moves in the in the living room for years. I'm more of an aerial act though. I'm off the top ropes."

"The Final Boss and Travis," Johnson responded. "We got to figure that out."

In Johnson's most recent WWE run, he formed a persona entitled "The Final Boss," playing off the fact that he owns a portion of the company and uses it to abuse his powers as a heel. If he and Travis were to be involved in a storyline together, it would no doubt be must-see television. With or without Johnson, it seems like a near certainty that Travis will end up doing something in WWE one day.
