Summary
NFL star George Kittle and NBA star Tyrese Haliburton attended Night 1 of WrestleMania 42 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Kittle and Haliburton, both WWE fans, were showcased as they interacted with the WWE crowd. Kittle intercepted Haliburton’s beer and chugged it, causing a frenzied reaction from the crowd. Both athletes have been involved in WWE events in the past, with Kittle even clotheslining The Miz at WrestleMania 39. However, it appears neither will be entering a WWE ring anytime soon due to injuries, with Kittle suffering a torn Achilles in January and Haliburton recovering from a torn Achilles and battling shingles.
