WWE (or rather, Vince McMahon) have done a complete turnaround on their stance regarding The Wrestler ever since lead actor Mickey Rourke won a Golden Globe and got an Oscar nomination for his role in the film. On last night's SmackDown, they ran a video promoting the movie, and on the company website they have another video regarding the film with Ric Flair, Lilian Garcia and Mark Henry offering their thoughts on the Academy Award nominated movie (you can see the video at this link). WWE changed their stance to ride the wave of success of the movie through WrestleMania in hopes of getting mainstream attention. Also, there has been talk of doing something with Rourke at WrestleMania.

I personally hope it doesn't happen. If I was Rourke I'd tell Vince to suck it. WWE changed their stance to ride the wave of success of the movie And that's exactly why they're doing it. It's smart, yes...but it pisses me off. |

Lets hope not. Unless they do a Piper's Pit w/Rourke, in which that case it would be amazing and I'd be all for it.

Knowing Vince, he'll induct Mickey Rourke into the WWE Hall Of Fame This Year.
