NBA star Joel Embiid has been making headlines for a WWE-related gesture.
The player for the Philadelphia 76ers was fined by the NBA for doing the infamous WWE / D-Generation X “crotch chop” during a celebration at a recent game.
WWE executive and former D-X front-man Triple H weighed in on the controversy with a check-in on social media on Royal Rumble Saturday.
“Curious, Joel Embiid,” he began in a tweet tagging the aforementioned NBA star at the center of the crotch-chop controversy. “If you wrote a bigger check now, could you get a volume discount to cover the rest of the fine?”
