The WWE is currently holding it’s yearly Royal Rumble pay per view in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. A city that loves their Pittsburgh Steelers. Speaking of Pittsburgh Steelers, starting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger happens to be a huge fan of the World Wrestling Entertainment.

Whenever the WWE is in town and Ben has the day off, he’s almost always in attendance and is flashed on the screen for fans to see.
