Crossovers in the world of sports have become a common thing, with players from different backgrounds coming up to support their favorite athletes in not just their own sport but also other playing arenas. One such incident resurfaced when WWE legend Triple H posted pictures of Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton from their last visit at the promotion’s SmackDown event, thereby highlighting the upcoming Eastern Conference finals between the Indiana Pacers and the New York Knicks .
WWE chief content officer Triple H reflects on the unsettled beef between Tyrese Haliburton and Jalen BrunsonThe New York Knicks paved their way into the finals after a disappointing run through the last couple of decades. In the year 2000, the team qualified for the finals, and after 25 years, they did it again in 2025 after a long run of disappointing playoffs, multiple change in coaches and other reasons. With the Knicks giving their best in the semi-finals against the Boston Celtics, fans are overjoyed as they cheer their favorites into the finals against the Indiana Pacers. The semi-finals saw the likes of Hollywood celebrities as well and it doesn’t stop there.
Recently, the WWE-famed wrestler Triple H took to his official handle on X, posting pictures of players from both teams - Jalen Brunson and Tyrese Haliburton from the New York Knicks and the Indiana Pacers, respectively. The wrestler wrote, “It’s almost like we wrote it…” reflecting on a WWE SmackDown event where the players were on the two different camps supporting their fellow athletes.
On June 28, 2024, the WWE Chief Content Officer hosted the players during a SmackDown event between Logan Paul and the LA Knight. During the event, Haliburton sided with Paul and had a brief trash-talk session with Brunson, who entered the ring with a steel chair as opposed to the Indiana Pacers player wearing brass knuckles. Triple H, through his post, made a light-hearted statement on how the unsettled beef inside the ring will soon take a professional form inside the court at the Eastern Conference finals.
