WWE superstar Triple H makes his entrance during Wrestlemania 28 on April 1, 2012. Columnist Chris Boline suggests Nevada head coach Brian Polian duplicate a similar entrance during football games.

As the Pack prepared to finish off San Diego State two Saturdays ago, a new face appeared on the Mackay Stadium video board.

To quote the immortal Jim Ross, also known as Good Ol’ JR, “Good lord! That’s Daniel Bryan!”

Indeed, it was the four-time WWE world champion on the video board, (I mean TitanTron,) starting his trademark “Yes” chant. Even though the Mackay faithful were not as up to speed during the first unveiling of the chant (many seemed confused and bewildered), this was not the case late in the fourth quarter. Following a 47-yard run by running back Don Jackson to put the game away, Bryan came on the board a second time and the house was brought down. Propelled by this momentum, Nevada now sits at 6-3 on the year and has a shot at making its first conference title game in its short history in the Mountain West.

That being said, the Pack could use all of the help it can get during the home stretch of the season and what better way to get some extra confidence than some inspiration from professional wrestling? Thus, this list was compiled to sort the next best wrestling trend to be implemented at football games.

This countdown will consist of the most to least probable WWE/F-inspired events occurring at the next Wolf Pack football game.

1) DEFENSIVE END BROCK HEKKING – HULK HOGAN RIPPING HIS SHIRT

Fueled by the recent 30 for 30 documentary on his idol Brian Bosworth, Hekking will be at his testosterone-fueled peak the next time Nevada takes the field. With his adrenaline pumping at an all-time high, the defensive end will rip off his jersey following a big play to emulate one of the greatest heavyweight champions of all time.

This event will most likely occur in the following two situations: 1) after nearly decapitating UNLV quarterback Blake Decker in the final game of the regular season or 2) by being named the defensive MVP in the MWC title game.

Either way, not only will the Wolf Pack likely win if he does this, but America will as well.

2) RUNNING BACK DON JACKSON – BOOKER T SPINAROONIE

While the Sacramento, California native does not share the same trademark dreadlocks with Booker T, it is possible to surmise that the aspiring rapper has practiced his break-dancing moves once or twice. Jackson has broken out this year by leading the team in rushing (he has 649 thus far) and if there were no penalties for excessive celebration, it is possible the running back could show this off after a long touchdown run.

Even though Jackson admitted in the post-game press conference following the victory over the Aztecs that his favorite wrestler is Jeff Hardy, being compared to the five-time WCW Champion is hardly a bad compromise.

3) DEFENSIVE END IAN SEAU, QUARTERBACK CODY FAJARDO AND LINEBACKER JORDAN DOBRICH – TOO COOL DANCE

This comparison makes sense on multiple levels. Both Seau and Rikishi are from American Samoa heritage, Fajardo’s hair looks great in a visor and Dobrich is already called “Grand Master Sexay” in some circles. Combining the powers of the most consistent member of the Nevada defense (Dobrich was named team captain for the second year in a row) and the MWC’s sack leader (Seau has seven on the year), this would create pandemonium at Mackay. Of course, Fajardo would be the centerpiece of this ensemble by pulling off the worm at the 50-yard line following a huge touchdown strike.

4) HEAD COACH BRIAN POLIAN – TRIPLE H ENTRANCE

What better way to kick off any homecoming game than by having Polian spit a mist of water in the air in front of and on the Wolf Pack student section? If this were to actually occur before a big game, I am fairly certain that a member of the band (most likely a tuba player) would spontaneously combust from the sheer awesomeness of the moment. With the head coach having his best season to date for Nevada, he could very well pull this stunt off to jack up his players to win out this season.

Now if you don’t agree with the selections above, that is your own choice, but for right now, that’s the bottom line.
