The Pittsburgh Steeler entered Monday's contest against Washington Football Team as the last remaining undefeated team in the NFL.
The '72 Miami Dolphins were popping champagne by the end of the night.
The Washington Football Team social media team had some fun during and after the game, using a couple of wrestling memes to highlight the victory. First, they re-imagined the SmackDown Here Comes The Pain cover to showcase Daron Payne, who had five tackles including two tackles for losses.

Poor Britt. It must suck to root for a team that is no longer undefeated and has only one loss on the season.
Imagine being a Jets fan.
