What Shreveport, WWE, and NBA Star Tyrese Haliburton Have In Common

The Indiana Pacers' own Tyrese Haliburton has something in common with the city of Shreveport, and it's all thanks to WWE, really. WWE's latest video game is set to receive new DLC soon, featuring some NBA stars as wrestlers, each with a unique entrance theme song. The song chosen for the Pacers' point guard brings him closer to the Red River city than his home in Wisconsin.

50 Cent's Many Men Makes a Good Walk-Out Song

The second expansion for WWE 2K25, titled Dunk & Destruction, features NBA stars Shaquille O'Neal, Jalen Brunson, and Tyrese Haliburton, as well as the wrestlers Abyss and Great Khali. Of the three NBA stars, Haliburton is the only one to get a featured song for his music, and he managed to get 50 Cent's classic Many Men (Wish Death).

Shreveport Finds a New Favorite?

Shreveport might be able to find a new wrestling hero in Haliburton with the way things went down on SmackDown earlier this year. During a match between Logan Paul (yes, that guy from YouTube is also a wrestler now) and LA Knight, Haliburton was ringside and tried to use brass knuckles to give Paul an upper hand when Jalen Brunson jumped the barricade front row to stop him.

With 50 Cent already becoming a hero in the eyes of Shreveport, if Tyrese Haliburton actually steps into a WWE ring with Many Men blasting over the crowd, then the city might have found a new hero in wrestling (even if he was helping Logan Paul in that match).
