Two players participated in Smackdown night at Madison Square Garden on Friday.
The NBA is in an important free agency process, where franchises begin to plan their future for next season. In this context, some players have already agreed to contract extensions, and are calm about what follows in the most important competition in the world. But for some heroes, it’s time to take advantage of the opportunity to do different activities, as they prepare for what’s to come. In that context there was Haliburton, star of the Pacers, and Brunson, figure of the Knicks, who joined the WWE night at Madison Square Garden.
Appointments from the most famous company in the United States are an event. These are generally events that bring together the best artists of the company, with important settings for different stories. This Friday, MSG welcomed Logan Paul, an influencer who is a long-time ally of WWE, and currently holds the United States title. When he left, he asked for the microphone. “This is where heroes are made and legends are born. Tonight, I get to perform on this historic stage. And to truly understand what it takes to win, I brought someone who knows how to win to Madison Square Garden. You can give him a welcome Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton.” The player left under a shower of boos and whistles.
In the middle of the fight, which marked a spot in the “Money in the Bank” event, Haliburton tried to help Paul, bringing the metal knuckles closer for Paul to win the match. At that moment, Jalen Brunson, a New York Knicks player, entered from the front row. Needless to say, the crowd erupted in joy at the sight of the star, who led the team to the playoffs where they were eventually eliminated by the Pacers. The perimeter avoided Haliburton’s “trap”, which caused the influencer to lose. When the match was over, they wanted to attack a fighter between the two heroes, and Brunson jumped into the ring again to defend him. To make the moment even more impressive, he took a metal chair to scare Haliburton.
Brunson and Haliburton were the leaders of their respective teams in the playoffs involving the Knicks and Pacers last NBA season. The former averaged 29.7 points per game, 2.3 rebounds and 6.1 assists. The young star of the Indiana team averaged 21.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 7.0 assists. And this isn’t the first time WWE has taken advantage of basketball rivals to entertain its fans. Just recently, Enes Kanter won the 24/7 title wearing the Boston Celtics jersey. A few days ago, Porzingis, recent champion with a green franchise, could be seen wearing a championship belt in a parade across the city.
