There are very few things as exciting for a sports fan as having a crossover with another sport. NASCAR drivers have oftentimes made an appearance in other Motorsport series like Kyle Larson’s foray into IndyCar and dirt racing. However, recent news has brought up an interesting collaboration between NASCAR and WWE.

Who doesn’t love the world of wrestling entertainment? We are sure that Cole Custer does! The Stewart Haas Racing driver is said to be making a special guest appearance on next week’s WWE NXT program on the CW show. The announcement was made on October 15th during the NXT episode, and ever since then, fans have been buzzing with excitement.

The 2023 Xfinity Series champion Cole Custer will make a special live appearance on NXT. This appearance is part of an ongoing partnership between NXT and Custer, who was sponsored by WWE earlier this year. Now, during the 2024 Xfinity Series Playoffs, Custer is returning the favor by stepping into the world of NXT, just as the brand heads full throttle toward its Halloween Havoc Premium Live Event on October 27.

Cole Custer also posted on X about his upcoming appearance at the NXT, stating, “Can’t wait to watch the Triple Threat Main Event tonight! I’m pulling for my man Je’Von Evans to get it done. NXT I’ll see you in Orlando next week.”

While WWE has kept the details under wraps, Custer’s fans cannot wait to see what the collaboration will be about. When this news surfaced on X, it didn’t take long to find its way to Reddit, where fans did not hold back their excitement or comments.

NASCAR-WWE fans are excited to see Cole Custer make his cross-sports appearance

One fan couldn’t resist playing off Custer’s name with a clever twist, exclaiming, “Amazing. Hope they’re ready for STONE COLD CUSTARD.” It’s a hilarious nod to WWE legend Stone Cold Steve Austin, and it seems like they’re already hyped to see Custer embody some wrestling flair.

Another fan chimed in with a nostalgic request: “Please bring back the 24/7 title for one night!” If you’re familiar with WWE, you’d know the 24/7 title was all about unpredictable, anytime-anywhere action. Bringing that chaos back just for Custer’s appearance would add a wild twist.

And then there’s the excitement that just can’t be contained, with one fan declaring, “Holy sh*t. I’m watching.” It’s the perfect way to sum up the shock and thrill of this crossover, as it’s enough to make even non-wrestling fans tune in.

Of course, fans want to see Custer do more than just show up, with one saying, “Please hit the Custer Driver on someone.” They’re already imagining him delivering a signature move, and honestly, who wouldn’t want to see the racing champ take someone down in style?

Lastly, one fan brought the humor with, “Why is he wearing his underwear on the outside?” It’s a classic wrestling trope, and they’re clearly having some fun imagining Custer in full WWE gear. All in all, it’s clear fans are ready to embrace this NASCAR-meets-WWE moment with open arms.
