50 Cent will be a guest at Wrestlemania XXIV on March 30, where he'll accompany boxing champion Floyd Mayweather—who apparently uses "I Get Money" as his entrance music—to the ring before Mayweather's match with the seven-foot, 400-pound wrestler who goes by the name The Big Show. On a business level, it's smart for 50 to bring his music to new audiences, but part of me thinks that this appearance is an odd one as far as PR goes, given that 50's name popped up in a performance-enhancing drugs investigation a few months back. Maybe he just misses the excitement offered to him by trumped-up conflicts that are egged on by an all-too-eager public? [MTV]

The Game Hoping To Add WWE Belt To His List Of Awards

Always thinking of new ways to get his name in the press, The Game has taken to challenging wrestler Triple H—who also goes by the nom de ring "The Game"—to a scrap:

"I'm much stronger than (wrestler The Game) is. I was 'The Game' long before he came about. He's on TV wrestling and it's pretend, made up. I wrestle in real life and I win."

Well, right now, the Compton-based Game is in the lead here (the wrestler is out for the next few months after he tore his quad for the umpteenth time), but regardless of that, this feud is sorely lacking one thing: The Game dropping a dis track over the Motorhead song that Triple H uses as his entrance music. Can someone pass this MP3 along to him?
