Kittle, Garoppolo steal show at WWE 'SmackDown'
The San Francisco 49ers are undefeated through three games, so Jimmy Garoppolo and George Kittle apparently decided to celebrate with a trip to WWE "SmackDown" on Monday night.

The 49ers quarterback and tight end started the night by becoming the latest NFLers to try their hand at chugging beer live on TV:

Next, Kittle - who is a noted wrestling fan - got to celebrate with tag team The New Day, whose members leaped over the barricade to hug the star tight end after their win:

After Sunday's victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Kittle's spot-on impression of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson got the attention of the man himself.
While sporting a shirt featuring The Rock, Kittle was convinced to again try the Hollywood star's famous catchphrase:
George Kittle doing his best @TheRock impression at Smackdown 😂
