No, this isn't happening, but there was little wrestling exchange on the NBA halftime show a few minutes ago.
The game is in Memphis, so they show Lawler in the arena giving someone a piledriver, which started a little wrestling talk from Shaq and Charles Barkley.
Barkley: "Speaking of wrestling, Brock Lesnar better leave John Cena alone. That's my boy. Me and Shaq are going to have to come down there if he keeps it up"
Shaq: "How do you know I'm not with Lesnar?"
Then they showed the Shaq/Show confrontation from a few years back. Nothing big, I just thought it was funny.

I thought the whole exchange was hilarious.
I like how they basically said "The early games sucked, so we are going to talk about wrestling"

Shaq v Show is literally the only celebrity match involving The Big Show that I want to see booked for Wrestlemania. Ever.

Their commentary about that on TNT was awesome. I'd just like for them to keep discussing wrestling.

Lawler may suck on commentary, but he is king of the piledriver. That was a thing of beauty.

Damn that made me cringe. As much as Lawler has done the move for years and years without much trouble, that'd be scary as hell to take on a basketball court

Was great to see King actually WEARING the crown.
I'm sick of, on the rare times he has matches on WWE TV, him just carrying it instead of wearing it.

It's funny to hear people who don't follow wrestling attempt to commentate it. "PILEDRIVE!" Dude, he only pushed Big Show.

King got his own little segment on PTI tonight. Both Kornheiser and Wilbon loved it, and credited the piledriver with getting Memphis back in the game.
