Flair is the second WWE superstar to appear on College Gameday this season. The Undertaker made a guest appearance on the Sept. 7 edition of the show, which took place in the Undertaker's home state of Texas.
ESPN has been running commercials for SmackDown's Oct. 4 debut on Fox throughout the weekend as well. Triple H commented on Undertaker's appearance two weeks ago, discussing the crossover appeal WWE has in sports and pop culture. You can view his full comments by clicking here.
