In an exclusive shared by TMZ, Gibbs admitted earlier this year that he had accidentally injured the WWE wrestler while filming a scene in the vampire thriller Night Patrol, which was released in January.

If the rumours are true, this would be the second time Gibbs has collaborated with the crime simulator series, with his 2012 track 'Still Livin'' having featured on GTA V's Radio Los Santos.
Fans will have to wait until "late 2026" to find out if Gibbs is included in GTA VI, as Rockstar pushed back the release date of the game for the third time in November, confirming it will be available to play from November 19, 2026.
