During the Cavaliers' 2016 game, WWE and the Undertaker were invited. The Undertaker spent almost an hour outside the locker room, but James was not in attendance.
“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.” said by Cleveland.com’s Joe Vardon
In response, WWE spokesperson emphasized that The Undertaker was doing what he was hired to do. “The Cavs invited WWE to the game and paid for the appearance. As their guests, we were gladly fulfilling their request to meet the team.”
