Chargers linebacker Shawne Merriman hasn’t signed his restricted free agent tender. So he’s not under contract.
So he’s not prevented from engaging in other activities that his football contract would prohibit, like wrestling.
And it appears based on Merriman’s Twitter page that he plans to show up for the WWE event that will be televised tonight from San Diego. He says, “I want the mic.” Whether some type of arrangement has been made for him to take the mic and then pretend to slam it against someone’s head remains to be seen.
You can see it for yourself on USA Network tonight, starting 9:00 ET. Sure, USA Network is owned by NBC. But that’s merely a coincidence.
