Oscar turns down offer to appear at WrestleMaina.

[TopDawg]

To follow up on the story covered yesterday, World Wrestlig Entertainment officials did in fact reach out to boxing legend Oscar de La Hoya about taking part in the Floyd Mayweather angle at WrestleMania. Unfortunately, De La Hoya has rejected the offer.

De La Hoya and Mayweather will be fighting again in September. Their first encounter last May drew approximately 2.5 million Pay-Per-View buys, making it the top selling PPV in history.

Mayweather was booed at RAW last night in Anaheim, California, perhaps because he was in the heart of De La Hoya country. Much like he did in his recent fights with Oscar De La Hoya and Ricky Hatton, Mayweather is expected to play a heel role heading into WrestleMania.

So maybe they do know what they are doing with this angle. It would have been impossible for Floyd to play the face.

I'm guessing the WWE doesn't know that, lol.

At least DLH has enough common sense not to get involved in this crap.

Wait so Floyd is going to end up as the heel? It would have been interesting to see him as a face but, who cares.

Not surprising, he's got a fight the following month.
