WWE star Carmelo Hayes appeared on The Masked Man Show to talk about a number of topics, including NBA legend Carmelo Anthony being a huge fan of pro wrestling.
Hayes said, “I actually didn’t know he was into wrestling like that. I mean, everyone knows 80s wrestling — when I heard him say 80s, 90s wrestling, I was like, alright he cool but I didn’t know if he knew what was going on today.”
On how Anthony should come to WWE Bad Blood and experience it first hand:
“I mean, I’m not gonna sell it to him right, but I think he needs to come and experience WWE today. We talk about it a lot, you can watch it on TV and get one perspective, but bro, you come to — you trying to tell me if he came to WrestleMania and watched Cody finish the story, he wouldn’t be a fan? You know what I’m saying? That hooked people. Tell him to come through to Atlanta for Bad Blood where the vibes are just crazy. That’s where it’s like, you’ve gotta show somebody, you really can’t talk anybody into being a wrestling fan. They’ve got to experience it.”
