Christmas came early this year for the Miami Heat! Miami Heat star LeBron James gave his entire team their own WWE Championship belts and thanked the World Wrestling Entertainment for the great gifts via his Twitter.
It was one month after receiving a real-deal WWE Championship belt from Dwayne Johnson also known as The Rock in the WWE, LeBron James apparently felt a little weird being the only guy in the locker room accessorizing with 20 or so pounds of gold around his waist. So LeBron James had an idea and decided to hook his Miami Heat teammates up with their own WWE Championship belts.
A photo uploaded by James' Instagram account is seen the whole team showing-off their WWE Belts in a group picture.
The belts appear to 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.
While it's not clear how the real WWE champion feels about the Miami Heat team receiving these belts, it's safe to say the gift was all in fun and not meant to offend any pro wrestlers.
LeBron James thanked the whole WWE Universe through his Twitter Account by tweeting.
In fact, several past WWE champions helped James get the belts. When James posted on Twitter asking where he could find a WWE champion belt last year, both Dwayne Johnson and John Cena offered their help and tweeted.
After missing Miami's Sunday win over the Chicago Bulls while recovering from the broken nose he suffered during the Heat's 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 he's said he'll be wearing a protective mask over his still-healing schnozz when he does so.
