Rob Gronkowski wins WWE 24/7 Championship at WrestleMania 36

Rob Gronkowski has already won his first WWE title.

Mojo Rawley provoked close friend Rob Gronkowski on Night 1 of WrestleMania 36, and the show host got his revenge on Sunday night.

On Saturday, then-24/7 Champion R-Truth joined Rawley and Gronkowski atop Gronk’s hosting perch, and was laid out by the former Patriots star. Gronkowski quickly went for a cover – the 24/7 Championship can be won at any time, hence the name – but Rawley pushed Gronkowski off R-Truth and pinned the champion himself to win the belt. Rawley then called out Gronk, and disappeared, setting the stage for what happened on Sunday.

Just after Edge and Randy Orton’s epic Last Man Standing match concluded, a massive brawl spilled out from backstage and down to ringside involving Rawley and several challengers for his belt. Gronkowski leapt off his perch to take out the entire crowd, and then pinned Rawley to win the title. Gronk then sprinted away from the scene to safety.
