(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Las Vegas, NV, Oct. 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Global Gaming League (GGL) - the groundbreaking entertainment and esports/gaming platform merging music, media, and celebrity competition - has officially announced podcast duo Gillie & Wallo (Million Dollaz Worth of Game) as the league's newest team owners. Gillie & Wallo will be going up against the iconic Hollywood comedian and TV host, Howie Mandel. The match will mark one of the most unexpected and entertaining crossovers in competitive gaming - pitting raw street energy and podcast royalty against TV's sharpest comedic mind.

Gillie and Wallo are no strangers to bold entrepreneurial moves-from their groundbreaking Barstool podcast deal to their hit oversized sports hats, Noggin Boss, and their energy drink, Pure Fuel. Their latest venture into team ownership within a major sports and gaming league marks another powerful chapter in their evolution as cultural and business leaders, solidifying their status as forces shaping both the streets and the boardroom.

“Gillie and Wallo bring the type of passion, competition, smack talking and credibility that defines what GGL is all about,” said Clinton Sparks, Founder of the Global Gaming League.“Pairing them against Howie Mandel's team aligns with what the mission of the GGL is all about - bringing different cultures, industries and worlds together.

Gillie & Wallo - known for turning their Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast into one of the most influential voices in hip-hop culture - are entering the world of esports with one mission: talk big, play bigger.

“I love Howie Mandel, but we're about to embarrass that man in 4K,” joked Gillie, already firing shots before the official announcement stream. Wallo added,“Howie better bring his A-game. We don't lose on the mic or the monitor.”

Bringing more entertainment to the event, the band Wheatus – known for their chart-topping anthem“Teenage Dirtbag” – will perform the half time show.

The Gillie & Wallo (Million Dollaz gaming team) vs. Howie Mandel (Howie Do It gaming team) matchup will be live in Las Vegas on Oct 29th and then streamed exclusively via the Global Gaming League's YouTube channel on November 7th, 2025, with interactive fan engagement, live commentary, the halftime performance, and surprise guest appearances.
