WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio had a trick up on his sleeve to finally get the better of his son, Dominik Mysterio. He, along with Andrade, defeated Santos Escobar and Dirty Dom in a tag team match at WrestleMania. Although the notorious duo tried to win the match with their shenanigans, they were stopped by two unknown, masked men.

In the third match of Night 1 of WrestleMania, Andrade and the Lucha legend started the match at a high pace. However, the opponents soon turned the match in their favor and took control of the match. Just as it looked like Dominik and Escobar were looking to attack Rey Mysterio with the chair, their luck ran out. The masked men were revealed to be legendary Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce and offensive tackle Lane Johnson.

There were reports of WWE contacting him before the Show of Shows to be involved in some capacity. Needless to say, it couldn’t have been a better way to help Rey and Andrade get the win in front of their own crowd. Kelce retired from NFL competition after spending 13 years with the Eagles. Interestingly, many WWE superstars also invited his brother, Travis Kelce, and girlfriend, Taylor Swift. They could potentially make a surprise appearance on Night 2 of WrestleMania.

The match was filled with high-flying action as Andrade feasted the eyes of fans with his majestic double moonsault. Furthermore, Joaquin Wilde showed what he is capable of with his famous high-risk airbone move. Although the Hall of Famer would be celebrating their win right now, he might want to watch his back. It will be interesting to see L.W.O. member Carlito’s reaction after not being chosen as his partner.

The WWE Universe couldn’t hold their excitement when the masked men were revealed to be Philadelphia’s own Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson. The NFL duo helped Rey Mysterio defeat his son and former protege.

Kelce broke his silence following the WrestleMania-worthy moment in a backstage interview. The legendary center stated that it was his honor to be able to assist another legend like Rey. He even admitted to being a longtime fan of the Hall of Famer.

Listen, the mask before was incredibly fun in a different way, but to assist a legend who has been doing it ever since I can remember, and the guy that I’ve rooted for a very long time, to be able to assist him in any way, with or without mask was a complete honor.

The 50-year-old veteran also paid tribute to the Philadelphia Eagles football team by wearing its gear. It will be interesting to see whether Jason Kelce also makes an appearance tomorrow or not. Back-to-back appearances by him will certainly be a treat for Philly fans.
