Triple H has opened the door to WrestleMania 40 for NBA star Joel Embiid.

WrestleMania 40 is set to emanate from Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA on April 6th and 7th, 2024. No matches have been announced for the huge show as of yet but Roman Reigns is expected to main event his fourth WrestleMania main event in a row as WWE Universal Champion.

With WrestleMania capturing the imagination of both the sports and entertainment worlds, Triple H has extended an invitation to the event to NBA star and Philadelphia 76er Joel Embiid. Embiid was recently fined $35,000 by the NBA for doing the DX crotch chop as a celebration against the Portland Trailblazers on October 29th. Triple H offered an invitation to Embiid for the event on social media noting that WrestleMania was a place that would love to see the crotch chop.

Joel Embiid Responds To Triple H’s Invitation

Embiid responded to The Game noting that he’d love to be there but doesn’t think he’s going to be in Philadelphia for the show.

Before any Philadelphia 76ers fans panic, Embiid’s response is likely because the team has away games in Memphis and San Antonio over WrestleMania weekend.
