The College Football world got a slight touch of appreciation from the WWE world. The shout-out goes directly towards Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets are currently undefeated at 5-0 and ranked No. 13 nationally. Brent Key’s squad is off to its best start since the 2014 season, powered by some really key wins. Fans are finally excited again, but it’s not only them having their fingers crossed. Georgia Tech’s own Joe Anoa’i, aka Roman Reigns, gave a massive shout-out to Key’s program live on ESPN.

And by the way, along with being an alumnus, Reigns was a former standout defensive tackle at Georgia Tech from 2003 to 2006. “I don’t want to jinx it. The moment I start running my mouth, my teams do not perform well, so we’re just going to enjoy it,” Reigns said on the Pat McAfee show.

If you want to be successful in life, if you want to be a part of something after football quits you, because it quits all of us……you want to be a part of this Georgia Tech community. You want to be a part of this fraternity.” He further added, “We’re winners, man, and I want to say at least 25 to 30% of us are easy millionaires.”

Now that’s a major endorsement coming from a WWE star like Roman Reigns.
