Could NBA star Tyrese Haliburton make his presence felt in the upcoming Men\'s 2025 Royal Rumble match? Don\'t count it out. This week, the Indiana Pacers star made time to attend the Royal Rumble kickoff show. He confirmed that after his game, he plans to handle media obligations, freshen up, and head straight to Lucas Oil Stadium to attend WWE\'s first PLE of 2025.
Haliburton then introduced Paul \'Triple H\' Levesque, the first inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2025. Levesque, a two-time winner of the Royal Rumble, closed his spirited promo bu reminding fans that you never know who will show up in a Royal Rumble match. He then approached Haliburton and said \"Let’s talk,\" teasing that the NBA star will do much more in Lucas Oil Stadium than watch the show.
