Posted October 7, 201311 yr comment_5566483 I've always imagined that Gene Hackman could have done Harley Race.
October 8, 201311 yr comment_5566625 I quite like this idea for a thread and don't want to see it sink. I've been thinking about Flair and --- even though this sounds cazy -- I reckon Dustin Hoffman could have done it back in the day. While they look nothing alike, I reckon Hoffman has some facial similarities with Flair: They both have big noses, and they both have that kinda buck tooth. Dye Hoffman's hair, put him in a robe and have him bulk up a bit and I reckon he could pull off Flair. This would have to be a younger Hoffman though. Aside from my fantasy casting of Hoffman, though, I'm honestly at a loss for who else could play Flair. Very difficult casting. I don't know why, but I like the idea of Guy Pearce as Lex Luger. Luger: The Movie could probably be quite an interesting film -- his college and football days, breaking into wrestling, the Brody match, the dark days, Liz, the rehab, the spinal stroke and remarkable steps to recovery ... Got a lot of stuff for a good film.
October 8, 201311 yr comment_5566627 How to make that movie so much more awesome just by changing one word in the title- Luger: The Musical. Is he a heel, is he a face? Here comes Liz with a can of mace Lex: I used to be a narcisist but now I am so proud; To represent this country and to pander to this crowd Babyface roster chorus: He bodyslammed the behemoth and handed him a loss Jim Cornette: But the title won't change hands and it was only a hiptoss Jim Ross: A former football star with a GPA of distinction Will he be the one to beat the Horsemen to extinction? Flair: I'd love to put him over just as soon as I can But it will have to wait because I've signed with Vince McMahon
October 8, 201311 yr comment_5566650 Lights dim. A single spotlight picks out Luger as he steps upstage. Luger: I will absolutely never join the New World Order I know I was a Horseman but if you think a little broader I didn't join the Million Dollar Corporation when accused Though my reputation, it was slandered, my strength of character, abused Step forward Nash out of the darkness. The music becomes jauntier. Nash: What about the Wolfpac? Luger: I wouldn't want to disappoint my fans. Nash: We sure could use that Torture Rack. Luger: It would spoil WCW's plans. Nash: You know we'll always have your back. Luger: I would like the security it'd bring. Nash: You'd sure look good in red and black. Dramatic pause, then... Luger: But what about Sting? I'll stop now.

October 9, 201311 yr Author comment_5566790 It was mentioned in another thread that I'd love to see Gary Oldman do Vince McMahon, but someone else had the idea of Michael Shannon which I think would be as good a choice. Both would, actually. Michael as the young determined promoter draining territories of talent, and Gary as Mr. McMahon.

October 14, 201311 yr comment_5567288 Please continue Yo-Yo. Great stuff. As far as wrestlers played by actors. Ving Rhames could totally play Ahmed Johnson. You're going down! With a pair of pliers and a blow torch.
October 14, 201311 yr comment_5567317 John Lovits as Paul Heyman. Noel Edmonds as Ted DiBiase. and I think Fred Ward would be PERFECT as Vince.
October 14, 201311 yr comment_5567332 lol at dropping a Noel Edmonds reference here. He never hit the states right?
October 14, 201311 yr comment_5567370 Joaquin Phoenix as Frank "Bruiser Brody" Goodish Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Stan "The Lariet" Hansen Daniel Day Lewis as Jake "The Snake" Roberts

October 15, 201311 yr comment_5567425 Phillip Seymour Hoffman as Stan "The Lariet" Hansen Actually he would make a perfect Brother Love.
October 24, 201311 yr comment_5568610 Christian Bale would make a good CM Punk I think DeNiro coulda played Bruno And if he had lived long enough, I could see Heath Ledger as Bockwinkel
October 24, 201311 yr comment_5568621 If Al Pacino died his hair blonde, maybe he could be a good Ric Flair.
October 24, 201311 yr comment_5568635 If Al Pacino died his hair blonde, maybe he could be a good Ric Flair. He certainly had a parallel drop off in the quality of his work ....
October 25, 201311 yr comment_5568750 No one except Tom Cruise can be Eric Bischoff. I can see Tom being way out of the price range and having to settle for Ted McGinley.
October 25, 201311 yr comment_5568756 Anyone else like the idea of Nick "Ron Swanson" Offerman as Arn Anderson?
October 25, 201311 yr comment_5568758 Paul Sorvino as Chief Jay Strongbow John Leguizamo as Jose Luis Rivera Courtney Love as Greg Valentine
