On the June 13th episode of WWE Monday Night Raw, live from New Orleans, Louisiana, WWE Superstar Luke Gallows made the comment that winning the WWE Tag Team Championships would be "easier than scoring a touchdown on the New Orleans Saints." Of course, this got the crowd to pour "boo's" into the ring at the Mercedes Benz Super Dome.
The Saints took to Twitter to respond:
@WWE tell @LukeGallowsWWE if he wants to talk trash about us come to our facility, some friends want to say hello pic.twitter.com/bNqMZu43Ef

Not to be outdone, of course, Luke Gallows responded:
I'm too busy winning REAL titles. #ClubDontChoke #NewTagChamps #MITB https://t.co/5IFkvFQ6vA

Wait, what? "Real" titles? He knows wrestling is fake, right? Oh well. That didn't stop the Saints from playing into the game, Tweeting back the current WWE Tag Team Champs.

With WWE loving the chance for cross-over marketing, will this ever lead to a member of the New Orleans Saints stepping into a WWE ring? Probably not. But let's pretend...
Which current New Orleans Saints player would you want representing the Saints in a WWE match?
