The great boxer Muhammad Ali, who passed away in 2016 at 74, is going to be honored by WWE. They’re putting him into the Hall of Fame, a special recognition for his achievements.
WWE called him “The Greatest” because he was more than just a boxer. He was also an activist, artist, and a well-known personality around the world.
Muhammad Ali, often called ‘The Greatest,’ was not only a famous boxer but also did other things. He was involved in a big WWE match called ‘The War of the Worlds’ against Antonio Inoki. He was also a special guest referee in the main event of WrestleMania I in 1985.
Every year, WWE chooses one celebrity for this special honor, and this time, it’s Muhammad Ali. Other famous people like Donald Trump, Mike Tyson, and William Shatner have received this honor before.
The ceremony is happening on April 5 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Muhammad Ali’s widow, Lonnie Ali, will be speaking at the event. It’s a way of remembering and celebrating the amazing things Muhammad Ali did in his life.
