Patrick Mahomes has an open invitation to return to WWE.
The three-time Super Bowl champion appeared on the April 29 edition of Raw and took part in an angle with Logan Paul and Jey Uso.
Mahomes discussed his WWE appearance during Thursday’s episode of The Pat McAfee Show.
“The WWE thing was awesome, that thing was sweet. I should have got in the ring, man, I’ve got to show off my skills a little bit,” Mahomes said on the show.
McAfee responded to Mahomes saying, “I think that anytime you’d like to do that, that is certainly available for you.” McAfee also brought up that the Kansas City crowd that night was conflicted because Mahomes aligned with Paul.
“That’s my man, Logan. I know he’s not the biggest fan favorite over there in the WWE but I had to try and help him out a little bit,” Mahomes continued.
Mahomes and Paul’s PRIME announced a sponsorship deal in December.
Triple H responded to Mahomes’ comments on the show, saying he has an open invitation to return.
Night two of the 2024 WWE Draft featured some noteworthy appearances.
With Raw being held in Kansas City, two-time NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes was in the building. The Kansas City Chiefs superstar took part in an angle using his three Super Bowl rings. Mahomes gave Logan Paul the rings to use as a weapon against Jey Uso. But when Uso moved out of the way, Paul struck JD McDonagh with them.
The returning Braun Strowman then saved Jey from an attack by Paul and Finn Balor. Strowman went face-to-face with Mahomes and his teammates Creed Humphrey and Trey Smith until Jey pulled him away. This was Strowman’s first time back in action since undergoing neck fusion surgery last year.

Paul also brought internet celebrity IShowSpeed to Raw last night to help announce some of the draft picks. Stephanie McMahon, The APA, Alundra Blayze & Teddy Long, and The Dudley Boyz announced picks as well.
Though CM Punk is still recovering from his torn triceps, he appeared last night and was among the wrestlers drafted. Punk and Drew McIntyre both ended up on Raw. Punk promised that, when he’s 100 percent, he’ll make McIntyre’s life a living hell.
Three-time Super Bowl winner Patrick Mahomes got involved in an angle with United States Champion Logan Paul on Monday’s WWE Raw in Kansas City.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Mahomes made a cameo appearance in the show open, arriving at the building with Paul. Later, the two-time NFL MVP passed Paul Super Bowl rings to use as a weapon in an angle involving Jey Uso, The Judgment Day and the returning Braun Strowman.
Paul had ring announcer Samantha Irvin introduce Mahomes to the live crowd, then cut a promo running down Uso as he stood in the ring alongside The Judgment Day.
