Sophie Cunningham Has A Chance To Be The Next Great Two-Sport Athlete, Gets Offer From Jeanie Buss To Join Women's Wrestling League
A.J. Mast. Getty Images.It doesn't matter what your thoughts are on the WNBA, or professional women's sports in general for that matter. Normal people think that it's great that there's an avenue for female athletes to make a living playing the game they dedicated so much of their life to. Some guys seem suspiciously angered at the idea of pro women's sports, most likely due to the fact that they were never even close to being good enough to be a pro athlete themselves.
Regardless of your thoughts, the fact of the matter is that Sophie Cunningham rules. She is everything that you would want out of a professional athlete. She gets it. She's passionate, she's aggressive, she's down to contribute to her team with whatever role is bestowed upon her, and she's not afraid to beat some ass if she has to.
And then, of course, this also doesn't hurt.

Moral of the story here is that if you are a fan of sports, and you are a fan of America, then you are a fan of Sophie Cunningham. And to me, I can't think of anything more American Hero than being an elite two-sport athlete. Guys like Deion Sanders and Bo Jackson. Jim Thorpe. Antonio Gates. Chris Hogan. The list goes on and on.
America loves sports. We're addicted to them. And unlike most countries, we don't just specialize in one or two of them. Growing up, kids play all different sports all year long. You're not going to see many other countries produce multi-sport athletes like we do here in America. And now Sophie Cunningham has a chance to join the list of greats.
We all know what the WNBA salary looks like right now. I'm sure Sophie Cunningham is doing pretty alright for herself with that Arby's endorsement at the moment, but who wouldn't want to add another source of income in today's economy?
And just imagine how much havoc Sophie Cunningham would wreak on the rest of the WNBA after she picks up professional wrestling. If you even so much as breathe too heavily in Caitlin Clark's direction, your ass is getting RKO'd through the Earth's crust. If you go up for a rebound against her, you're coming down with a people's elbow going straight through your chest. The Indiana Fever already have the best enforcer in basketball, but now she has the opportunity to kick some ass in style. Add a little more entertainment value to those beatings. There are billions of people on this planet. There's almost never a chance to actually become the first to ever do something. We need Sophie Cunningham to become the first ever WNBA/Women of Wrestling superstar.
