USWNT's Megan Rapinoe shows off WWE Heavyweight Championship belt

USWNT Megan Rapinoe poses with the WWE Heavyweight Championship belt. 

U.S. women's national team star Megan Rapinoe has had herself quite a week.

On Sunday, she celebrated her 30th birthday by helping the U.S. win the World Cup over Japan. That kicked off a raucous week of celebrations, which included a victory rally in Los Angeles and culminated with a ticker-tape parade down the Canyon of Heroes in New York City on Friday.

Rapinoe is known for her outgoing and fun personality, which is probably why she received the honor of carrying the World Cup trophy during the parade. Somewhere along the line in her week of celebration she found the time to show off the WWE World Heavyweight Title belt and gave some classic Pinoe poses.
