George Kittle is a longtime wrestling fan, who gives a shoutout to Penta during games, using the "Cero Miedo" taunt when he gets a first down.
Kittle began the taunt years ago, and Penta has come to games to support his friend.
"He is my best friend now," Penta told Chris Van Vliet on Insight. "I love him. He loves me, I think. I met him in New Orleans years ago at WrestleCon. I had like five matches and he came to my locker room after the match. ‘Hey Penta, I’m a player in the NFL.’ I’ve never seen NFL. I had never seen NFL. He gave me a jersey, I traded with the mask. After that, he became my friend. He texts me. When the NFL went to Mexico, he brought me with him. I hope he can be with me in WWE."
Penta gifted Kittle with a 49ers Lucha mask when the San Francisco 49ers played the Arizona Cardinals in Mexico in 2022.
Kittle got involved in the action at WrestleMania, delivering a clothesline to The Miz.
Elsewhere during the interview, Penta was asked about Rey Fenix joining him in WWE. You can find his full comments by clicking here.
