Titus O’Neil & Gable Steveson Announce Picks For The 2022 NFL Draft

April 30, 2022

Titus O’Neil continues to be an ambassador for WWE and he did it on one of pro sports biggest platforms in the 2022 NFL Draft. O’Neil is a Tampa native so when the Buccaneers’ turn came up to make their second round choice, O’Neil stepped out on the Las Vegas stage to announce the pick. He made guard Luke Goedeke out of Central Michigan a happy man as he ended up being the 2020 Super Bowl Champs’ choice.

Only a mere two picks later, new WWE signee and Olympian Gable Steveson came out on stage to announce the pick for the Minnesota Vikings. Steveson, unlike the last Minnesota celebrity, kept his announcement brief which also ended up being a guard, Ed Ingram out of Lousiana State University.

O’Neil played college football under Steve Spurrier’s Florida Gators and did play in the Arena Football League for a time. Fans recently saw Steveson make an appearance in Dallas at WrestleMania 38 when he got physical with Chad Gable.
