LeBron James gave all of his Miami Heat teammates WWE championship belts One month after receiving a real-deal WWE World Heavyweight Championship belt from Snitch star Dwayne Johnson (better known, perhaps, as The Rock), LeBron James apparently decided he felt a little weird being the only guy in the locker room accessorizing with 20 or so pounds of gold around his waist, so he decided to hook his Miami Heat teammates up with the finest pants-stabilizers a sports-entertainment professional could ever want (with the exception, of course, of Irwin R. Schysters suspenders): Always wanted to be the WWE Heavyweight World Champion so today I surprised my teammates with their own for their collection, James wrote in the caption of his Doctor-in Vadgers stagram post. That was thoughtful of him. Wanna thank @StephMcMahon for her help with the gifts I gave my guys today! Youre awesome!! #WWENetwork #Excitement #StriveForGreatness — LeBron James (@KingJames) February 26, 2014 The belts appear to be have been personalized, too — as Ray Allen showed on his own Instagram account, the belt he received featured not only a Heat logo, but also his jersey number and the Jesus Shuttlesworth moniker from He Got Game that he wore on his Miami nickname jersey earlier this season: Wrestling purists might grumble and grit their teeth at the Heat receiving straps suggesting that they had become the man without, in fact, beating the man in keeping with the famed Flair Corollary, but in a cross-sport context, I think allowances can be made for the defending back-to-back NBA champions. I mean, Id obviously prefer it if Miami had to earn the title by, say, outlasting 29 other competitors to win the Royal Rumble before heading to WrestleMania to take on Randy Orton — or at the very least Rasheed Wallace (shouts to Elevatorman) — but I suppose thatd be a bit unrealistic. This works just fine, especially considering James tweet makes it sound like the belts mightve been a gift from Vincent Kennedy McMahons daughter to LeBron and company. Id be willing to call the whole thing even if the Heats social media team can promise to get us footage of Chris Andersen re-enacting some classic Ultimate Warrior promos, complete with face paint and tassels. Its the non-dunking/rim-protecting/rebounding role the Birdman was born to play. After missing Miamis Sunday win over the Chicago Bulls while recovering from the broken nose he suffered during the Heats victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder, James expects to be back in the lineup on Thursday when the Heat take on the New York Knicks, and hes said hell be wearing a protective mask over his still-healing schnozz when he does so. While its likely that hell wear the same sort of plain clear plastic covering he donned with the Cleveland Cavaliers back in 2004, James did say after Miamis Wednesday practice that hed prefer to wear a mask with something crazy on it in the way of a design. Heres hoping James, the Heat and the league can get together and pave the way for LeBron to rock a Jushin Thunder Liger mask on TNT. Failing that, Id settle for Rey Mysterio, I guess. Hes a former WWE champion too, after all.
