Thankfully, Paul Wight would find better roles in the near future during his wrestling career.
The movie was mediocre, but nevertheless, it was fun to see Edge make his big-screen debut.
Oddly enough, this is not the only time aHighlandermovie makes it onto the list.
Hulk Hogan was not the draw and pop culture icon he was in the 1980s and early 90s.
It’s weird to see him show up in aMuppetsmovie and essentially talk straight into the camera, i.e.
Im a bad guy now.
Still, Hollywood Hogans scene is certainly memorable.
Strangely enough, the plot twist reveals that Goldbergs Mr. Smith was not Mr. Smith at all.
It was the Tasmanian She-Devil (a lady Taz) in disguise the whole time.
The triumphant reunion of MacGrubers assembled crew is promptly jettisoned as the buffoonish MacGruber blows them all up.
In one such scene, the Gremlins literally stop the movie from the movie theaters projection booth.
But once the Gremlins start making shadow puppets, the audience realizes that its all part of the show.
WhenThe Waterboywas released, Wight was still in WCW as The Giant.
There has been an expectation that Wight might revive the character inside a wrestling ring in the future.
(Vince McMahons father).
Things would only go up from here for Hulk Hogan.
Typecast or not, Savage was perfectly cast for this film and played his role to perfection.
Three minutes of playtime!
This is the ultimate pro wrestling movie cameo.
They dont come better than this.
