Don’t call it just a comeback, but a relentless drive to win. NBA Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Halliburton will be back on the court this Wednesday, and he had a little help from his WWE friends to make an announcement.
On X: (formerly known as Twitter) and on Halliburton’s social media pages, the basketball star posted a video of his comeback after tearing his right Achilles tendon in Game 7 of the NBA Finals. Alongside his journey, clips of WWE stars including Charlotte Flair, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk and: seth rollins all of whom have faced career-defeating injuries in their time and return to the ring on their way to redemption. At the end of the video, you can hear Hall of Famer and WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque say his famous three words: “Are you ready?”
