He doesn't have many songs or albums where it's not referenced heavily. He even has an EP with Conway called Hall & Nash. I'm sure I read that Demi Lovato is a huge fan as well. I heard they had to rename it the 'Tarrant pop' after the big man's appearance here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's done some training too. He wrestled for Max & Ivan's The Wrestling show, which always involves wrestlers and comedians working matches together. I have seen him at a couple of shows since then, and his wife is a huge wrestling fan, and has done some training herself.

Merzbow Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 There's a neverending list of rappers, Jpegmafia has references to wrestling in countless songs and even his signature sample is "You think the know me". He's had a small AEW cameo, too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hayley Williams has also attended PWG a couple of times. And there’s also that famous picture of Sofia Vegara ringside at PWG after some chaos. I’m sure it was a goalkeeper in the premier league who said they loved WWE. But can’t remember if it’s Marcus Hahnemann, Paddy Kenny or someone else.

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted November 6, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2023 Eamonn Holmes unashamedly was at both a WWE PPV (Rebellion?) and also was at the TNA London shows with Ruth and kids. Andy Warhol also talked wrestling a fair few times in interviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just off the top of my head I can recall lyrics referencing Kamala, Superfly Jimmy Snuka and Bobby Heenan. Even threw in a “ham and egger” mention on the Heenan one! And there was the time back in his Heltah Skeltah days when they used Goldust’s music on a song… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted November 6, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2023 Glenn Danzig is a die hard fan since the Sammartino days and still keeps up with it. I love this photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davertfnewman Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Maybe not fans, but certainly making an appearance, it's bizarre to see the WWF show at the Wembley Arena in 1989 having the like of Screaming Lord Such and the cast of Hi-de-Hi there. Su Pollard dancing to Honky's music in front of an amused Jeffrey Holland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gaffer Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Other than the usual metal musicians and rappers, David de Gea is the one that most recently had a bit of a coming out. He shared photos of Bray Wyatt on his Instagram account after his passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted November 6, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted November 6, 2023 Excuse me for including the fat tongued wanker in this clip, but to the surprise of virtually no one McConaughey is obviously a big fan. No-one would expect Skandar Akbar to be name checked on Graham Norton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
