MikeM Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Thought this might be fun - Just think of a WWE character / persona that would fit into a role in any other media, be it film, TV or books. I'll kick off. 1: "Deadman" Undertaker - Defence against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts. (I'm going with his babyface alignment here) But if you're trying to arm and defend the young of the wizarding world from the darkest of magic - who better than a supernatural being who can top anything that even "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named" could even dream of? Plus if it came down to it, he could always simply drop "You Know Who" on his head with a Tombstone. I think you could also pretty much guarantee that lessons would be interesting, and mischief among the kids nonexistent as the mere glare in their direction from The Reaper of Wayward Souls would freeze them to the spot. 10 points from Gryffindor? No, how about I don't send you backwards through that desk. 2: "American Badass" Undertaker - Ghost Rider. The Devil's personal Bounty Hunter? A seven foot tall monster with a penchant for motorcycles who is already more than on nodding terms with Beelzebub himself? Round peg, round hole. 3: "The Game" Triple H as Eddiard Stark, Game of Thrones. A tough as teak, leader of men - and a legendary warrior on the battlefield as well as a silver tongued wise counsel. The only thing missing is the Yorkshire accent. "Winter is coming, Are you ready? No, I said Are, you RRRRREEAAAADDDDYYYY. Then for the North, the Andals and the First men, LLLLLetsss get ready to snufff itttttt!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned's ONE defining characteristic is that he's honourable to a fault. Triple H is not honourable, he's stabbed people in the back countless times. Also this hardly seems important, but Ned is not a legendary warrior either. He was as adequate as any nobleman with access to a master-at-arms, but he was never legendary in the way Arthur Dayne, Jaime, Barristan, Rhaegar or Robert was. Ned was a good commander, but not the best even at that, but definitely not great warrior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeM Posted March 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Ooo, I like this game!!! Alexa Bliss - Harley Quinn John Cena - Captain America Nikki Bella - Wonder Woman Big Show - Nappa/Blob Peyton Royce - Poison Ivy That's all I got for now. Do I need to do descriptions though? Not if you don't want to. Can you number them though? Funny you mentioned Wonder Woman, there was a lot of talk that Chyna was set for the part in the plans for an earlier version. Peyton Royce as Poison Ivy is a great suggestion. I can't think of anyone less suited to being Ned Stark than Triple H. Ned's ONE defining characteristic is that he's honourable to a fault.

Ned was a good commander, but not the best even at that, but definitely not great warrior. Ned was widely regarded as a great swordsman, but yes the truth was revealed to be that he wasn't quite as gifted. So yeah, I'll agree with you. Next one is #10 by the way.

I'm glad you like Peyton as Poison Ivy, It's a thing I've always thought of and liked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I'm telling you he wasn't. He was regarded as an adequate swordsman, decent enough to get the job done, but nothing special. If anything he was shown to be better than he was, just to make one fight scene more dramatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned's never mentioned for his swordsmanship, but for how honorable he was. I can't even remember when anyone brought up his skills with a sword, apart for maybe Bran. Braun would be perfect as The Mountain though. Nakamura as Jack Sparrow Cesaro as any role Jason Statham plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeM Posted March 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 John Heidenreich - Ivan Drago Rocky 5. Not only would he destroy you, if he's in a nice mood, he might read you some poetry while he does it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeM Posted March 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 I remember thinking when they announced the A-Team movie, that Big Zeke would have made a great BA Baraccus. Why has this been moved? It's a discussion about WWE specifically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muur Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 I did think that's where it should've been. You wanting to number then with 101 makes it seems spammy. Had you just said "what roles could WWE wrestlers play in kayfabe?" you'd be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
