Triple H reaches out to Joel Embiid.
On Tuesday, the NBA fined Philadelphia 76ers superstar and reigning NBA MVP Joel Embiid $35,000 for crotch chopping against the Portland Trail Blazers.
After the fine came down, Triple H took to social media to invite Embiid to WrestleMania 40, which takes place in Philadelphia.
Hey @JoelEmbiid - I know a place where you can do that all day, and everyone will love it. @WrestleMania 40 is right there in Philly... https://t.co/2Ab1w781qU pic.twitter.com/swVCzt5N8E

Embiid responded saying that he would love to be there, but he isn't sure if he'll be in Philadelphia at the time of the event and used the NFL hashtag.
WrestleMania does not take place during football season.
Yes sir!! I would love to but I don’t think I’m gonna be in Philly for that… #NFL https://t.co/1pEM4iaSTB

Embiid has said in the past that Triple H was his favorite wrestler growing up.
Triple H took part in the 76ers playoff festivities in 2021, ringing the bell before the Sixers game against the Atlanta Hawks.
The Hawks won.
