Pro wrestling is often mocked as "fake" because of the pre-determined outcomes each match has, as well as the choreographed moves each athlete performs while in the ring.

Former Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce learned firsthand just how real pro wrestling is. He and former teammate Lane Johnson interfered in a match at WrestleMania 40 earlier this year, which took place at Lincoln Financial Field.

Kelce explained in an appearance on "The Rick Eisen Show" how he got acclimated to pro wrestling after being unfamiliar with it.

"WrestleMania was a thing, but we never watched it, and I didn't really know what to expect," he said. "It got announced it was coming to Philly and that they wanted Lane and I to be a part of it. I started to get acclimated to what this event is and how big of a deal it is to the wrestling community.
