LeSean McCoy won the rushing title after rushing for 131 yards in the Philadelphia Eagles’ 24-22 win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 17 on Sunday, and he celebrated with a WWE championship belt.
McCoy had the shiny belt hanging on his shoulder as he conducted his postgame interview with NBC’s Michele Tafoya. Tafoya asked Shady what the belt was all about.
“It’s a joke, my financial advisor is from Texas and told me he was going to give me a rushing title belt if we won the game. So here it is,” McCoy explained.
McCoy finished with 1,607 rushing yards to become the first Eagles player since Steve Van Buren in 1949 to win a rushing title. But the real issue wasn’t him winning the rushing title, but the WWE belt he had on. Even LeBron James wanted one:
Who do i need to talk to to get one of those World Championship Belt? WWE belt. The real ones

LeBron, you’ll probably have to talk to Vince McMahon about that. If not Vince, it looks like John Cena or The Rock are willing to help out.
