Detroit Lions Take Over WWE Raw: Goff Chant Steals Spotlight as Gibbs Sits Ringside
The Detroit Lions didn’t need a football field to make their presence felt Monday night — they took over WWE Raw.
It all went down at Little Caesars Arena, where the WWE universe collided with Lions fandom in the most unexpected (and totally epic) way. Sitting ringside was none other than Pro Bowl running back Jahmyr Gibbs, who got a moment of his own as the cameras flashed his name and highlighted his “2x Pro Bowl Running Back” status.
But what happened next? Pure Motor City madness.
In the middle of an eight-woman tag team match — yes, wrestling, not football — the crowd erupted into a chant not for a wrestler, but for Lions quarterback Jared Goff.
“A ‘Jared Goff’ chant just broke out during the 8-woman tag team match just now. And no, I am not joking,”
— reporter Kory Woods posted on X (formerly Twitter).
….
You read that right. The crowd at WWE Raw broke into a full-on “JARED GOFF! JARED GOFF!” chant in the middle of a match. Gibbs didn’t even flinch, but fans behind him could be seen pointing, yelling, and vibing like their QB had just body-slammed someone through a table.
And yes — the video exists. No one imagined it.

This unexpected crossover moment is just another example of how Detroit football has fully entered the pop culture spotlight. After a monster 15-win season and huge expectations for 2025, the Lions aren’t just contenders — they’re celebrities.
Bottom line?
WWE can keep the pyrotechnics and folding chairs — Detroit’s bringing the energy. When fans are chanting your quarterback’s name during a wrestling match, you know your team has officially arrived.
