Tyrese Haliburton was not losing on WWE night.
The Houston Rockets held WWE night on December 26, playing host to the Indiana Pacers. Normally, WWE night would be a celebration for the home team, but with noted WWE fan and Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton on the opposing team, he was the one who wanted to show out.
Before the game, Haliburton linked up with Booker T and Queen Sharmell, led the Pacers to a victory, and stated he was not going to be losing on WWE night.
“Booker T, no way…And the Queen!”
