Chargers linebacker Shawne Merriman has plans to join World Wrestling Entertainment in the future. "It's been talked about. I guess it's the off season and with things a little slow there's probably some other things to be talked about.," Merriman said. "I just want to set the record straight. I'm preparing myself for a 110 percent hell of a season, football season that is. All that stuff is talk. I'm a huge, huge wrestling fan, I've always been, and I've had a few talks with Vince McMahon before and it's a possibility. It's just talks really. That's all it's been. Not saying it's a possibility of me doing it, it's just been talked about as a possibility. Especially a lot of things happening with the CBA and stuff like that going on. All that stuff will take care of itself. I've just been training to get back to where I want to be playing football. Because that's the most important thing to me in my life right now." McMahon a great businessman and he's built something that's become a huge empire and has fans all across the world, including myself. Great business man." Source: Sports Radio Interviews
