Rodman had a run in pro wrestling alongside his friend Hulk Hogan in the now-defunct World Championship Wrestling (WCW), and this year is being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
Rodman famously skipped a practice in the 90’s during the NBA Finals for the Chicago Bulls to appear on a wrestling show.
Rodman, of course, is a fixture in culture from his iconic basketball career to high-profile romances (like Madonna and Carmen Electra) to even having meetings with the leader of North Korea.
The historic bad boy is notorious in American culture and is expected to draw huge crowds to the mega celebrity wrestling event.
There are other huge stars already announced for the event, including Trish Stratus, The Steiner Brothers and Lex Luger. You can check out all the announced guests here.
Tickets are still available for the major fan event and can be purchased here.
Going Ringside is a media partner for the event, and host Scott Johnson will be on hand all weekend, handling many of the panel discussions with the stars on hand.
Going Ringside airs every Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. on CW 17, and RCWC is regularly discussed on there.
