DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) It's WrestleMania week in the Metroplex and stars from in the ring and on the field are putting smiles on people's faces. On Wednesday morning, the Dallas Cowboys teamed up with the WWE for a visit to Scottish Rite.

While several WWE Superstars took photos and Cowboys tight end Gavin Escobar painted faces, running back Darren McFadden spent time with THE FAN's Troy Hughes.

McFadden, who will be attending WrestleMania this Sunday at AT&T Stadium, has been a wrestling fan since childhood. "I was big on guys like Sting, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Lex Luger. Some of them are still around wrestling, but some of them have moved on."

Darren McFadden then went on to talk about his new teammate from the NFC rival Washington Redskins, Alfred Morris ... and their future as WWE Tag Team Champions? "That would be great! That is something we definitely hope we can accomplish on the field, but if we were tag team champs we would definitely love that also.

OK ... Tag team champs or Super Bowl champs?

"Super Bowl champ, all day! Easily."
