I don’t think I’ve ever had to say this one before. Wrestling and celebrities are kind of a weird mix. You have some celebrities who fit right in with the quirky world of wrestling and some who are more polar opposites. When you find the right kind though, it can be a very fun mix and they can offer some entertaining moments. We might be in for another one of those soon.
According to Drop The Mic host Jensen Karp via Twitter, Rusev and Lana will be appearing on the show for a battle rap with Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban on Wednesday, March 20. This will not be the first time that Cuban has been involved with WWE, as he was attacked by Randy Orton at Survivor Series 2003 and was put through a table by Sheamus on the December 7, 2009 Monday Night Raw. On the same episode, New Day will battle rap against R&B band SMV.

Here’s where Cuban got physical. Check out one of his less successful appearances:
Opinion: Sure why not. This seems like something that is going to be more entertaining than not and that’s a fine place for WWE to be. Cuban is one of those celebrities who seems like he’s more than able to fit in with the WWE world and hopefully he’s fine on a neutral ground like this. It’s cool to see WWE getting their own night like this, as it proves just how much further they’ve gotten into mainstream culture.
Which of these sounds more entertaining? Which celebrity has fit best into WWE? Let us know in the comments below.
