Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling has announced that TNA wrestler Jake Something will appear at their upcoming Forged In Excellence show next month. The event is scheduled for October 19-20 at St. Clair College in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.
Arrow and Heels actor Stephen Amell has some experience in pro wrestling and once competed at WWE SummerSlam.
On a recent edition of the “Insight” podcast, Amell expressed that he is open to the idea of returning to WWE, especially since it could lead to potential opportunities for crossover with his acting projects.
He said, “I appreciate that. Cody thinks I’m one good WWE match away from maybe eventually getting the Snoop Dogg treatment, going into the hall of fame. It depends on how much I want to stay in my marriage. I did say that, look, if Heels comes out and there is some potential with the crossover with Raw being on Netflix and Suits on Peacock. The crossover elements are there for me in the WWE but I feel like I’d have to get my wife to sign off because she’s had to take me to the hospital twice after matches. Once for when I hurt myself with Heels and we definitely had to go get my hip x-rayed after All In. So maybe one more. I did go through the entire second season of Heels, we did a bunch of stuff and I came out fine.”
And finally, on a recent edition of the “WrestleBinge” podcast, Willow Nightingale discussed which wrestlers she would be interested in facing in a hypothetical intergender match.
She named Lee Moriarty, Bryan Danielson, and Eddie Kingston.
Nightingale said, “There’s a lot. The first person that came to mind actually was Lee Moriarty because when I was an independent wrestler, it was something that was actually possible, that I could have wrestled him. So in the back of my head, there’s always, ‘Oh, I still want to wrestle Lee Moriarty.’ But I am a huge Bryan Danielson fan. Obviously, he announced that this title reign, that is the end of the line for him, and whenever he loses it, he says he’s done. So I would want to be one of those people. That would be cool. Some matches are about having them. Personally, if I was wrestling Bryan right now, I wouldn’t want to beat him. I don’t want him to retire [laughs]. I mean, that’s selfish because he has a very good reason for hanging the boots up, but I personally wouldn’t even want to beat him. I would want to get in there with him. Eddie Kingston is another person I would really love to wrestle. It’s crazy. Our roster is so stacked. There’s a lot of people I would want to wrestle, but those I think would be the first three that came to mind.”
