Back in 2022, Wale held the first WaleMania event since the pandemic. Prior to that, the last WaleMania was held in 2019.
The event was opened by The Ringer’s Masked Man Show Podcast, which is a professional wrestling recap show hosted by David Shoemaker and Kazeem Famuyide that features guests from the world of Hip Hop and professional wrestling.
It was also announced that Foot Locker was also dropping exclusive merch for the event that combined Wale’s love of both wrestling and sneaker culture.
“WaleMania has always been a passion of mine because it combines all of my loves into one place during a weekend that I always have the most fun,” Wale said in a statement at the time. “I love doing this for fans of myself and my music as well as the fans of professional wrestling because at the end of the day, I’m one of you too. I love that WaleMania has become the unofficial welcome to the big weekend party so I’ve got a few things up my sleeve to make sure this one is unforgettable.”
