Pat McAfee still in neck brace during Tyrese Haliburton WrestleMania afterparty link-up

Although Pat McAfee stayed in character even after his WrestleMania moment, he carried it on as he partied with Tyrese Haliburton.

The former NFL star and Indiana Pacers point guard attended WrestleMania, which kicked off on Saturday, April 18, and will continue through Sunday, April 19, 2026, in Allegiant Stadium. The pair were seen partying in video footage online in Las Vegas. The video showed Haliburton facing the camera lip-syncing to “Many Men” by 50 Cent in the club with McAfee right behind him doing the same thing. A fan calls for the attention of McAfee and screams his name to which he turns around and throws up his middle finger as he continues to rap along to the song.

Fans couldn’t get enough of the interaction between Haliburton and McAfee in the club.

“Pat in the neck brace is killing me. Glad to see Hali looking more like his old self,” one fan commented.

“Not Pat still wearing everything,” another fan responded, adding crying face emojis.

McAfee decided to stay in character throughout the night to announce the Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes match before he was “attacked” by Jelly Roll. He was later carried out on a stretcher due to his “injuries” from the singer’s attack and was later seen wearing a neck brace.

Haliburton, who is currently on the sidelines following his season-ending Achilles injury last season and recent shingles diagnosis, is healing and having fun as an avid fan of the WWE. The NBA star appeared ring side and had a viral moment of his own this weekend. Haliburton was seen playfully getting his beer intercepted by San Francisco 49ers star George Kittle.

Earlier this week, Haliburton got candid about his weight gain and the symptoms he has experienced since being diagnosed with shingles.

“I have good days and bad days, but for the most part, it’s bad days. So, it has not been any fun. I’m still honestly dealing with it,” he admitted.

He added that he’s been “having nerve pain now for two months” and hopes it’ll “go away soon, but there’s no way to really know.”
