Dale Earnhardt Jr. reacts to Ryan Blaney's WWE appearance

Dale Earnhardt Jr. reacted to Ryan Blaney’s WWE Raw cameo and voiced his disappointment over Blaney not chugging the beer. Dale Jr. said that if someone ends up on the big screen with a beer in hand, they’ve got to finish it.

In a recent episode of Ask Jr., the NASCAR Hall of Famer appreciated Blaney for rocking a Steve Austin T-shirt but was left a bit underwhelmed when he didn’t chug the beer. He said:

"He [Ryan Blaney] didn't chug his beer, he's going to catch a little hell for that. Pat [McAfee] was like 'Oh, he's gonna, nope, he's not gonna!' I wonder if he regrets maybe not chugging his beer, just about a quarter of a cup left... Anytime you're put on a big screen at a sporting event and you're holding a beer, I think it's a must that you finish it." [3:52 onwards]

Ryan Blaney also shared some banter with Dale Jr. on social media after his early exit at Talladega. His race ended in Stage 1 after getting tagged in a wreck with Brad Keselowski and Kyle Busch, marking his fourth DNF result in the first 10 rounds of the season.
