Hey, @Jnickerson33: I love this question. For a quick review, The Undertaker was stationed outside the locker room at The Q for an uncomfortable hour (give or take) on opening night, apparently to meet James (with cameras and cell phones rolling for the fine folks at WWE to capture the moment and spread the footage around the globe). The reason, besides the huge publicity it would generate for the WWE, was James wore a T-shirt from Homage with The Undertaker's likeness on the front on practice day prior to Game 5 of the Finals.

James arrived at The Q before the wrestler and his posse, and claimed not to know he was out there. But of course the word immediately spread through the locker room that The Undertaker was waiting outside.

Here's a life lesson. If you don't have an appointment, don't already know James personally, aren't a business associate or a small child, the odds of "meeting" James before or after a Cavs game in or near the locker room are not great. I once saw Houston Astros stud second baseman Jose Altuve try to get a meeting with James after a game against the Houston Rockets in Texas. The request came through various team PR officials. Let's just say James had no interest.

Another rule. James is not cool with someone purposefully trying to make money or gain fame through him, away from the court. In other words, no PR stunts that don't benefit James. He wore an Undertaker T-shirt. For him, that's enough.

Ouch, had Undertaker and his family and Warrior family standing out there like some damn fools. WWE got a reality check quick. :mjlol:

But damn Bron, couldn't show some love to Taker? Cena, I could see. But Taker?! :francis:

Lebron probably thought he still had time for a shower and a shoot around since Taker's entrance is slow as shyt :heh:


Can't be too mad unless LeBron personally invited him there or was directly involved with getting him to agree to show up. Seeing Warrior Warrior's wife Mrs. Warrior and the WWE cameras and stuff there screams publicity stunt/PR shyt for the cameras. :manny:

He ain't ever showing love to Cena because he (indirectly) called him a flopper :mjgrin:
