Mickey Rourke Backs Out Of Wrestlemania
Posted on Jan 29, 2009 @ 09:32AM
Turns out 56 year-old Mickey Rourke will not be tangling with World Wrestling Entertainment superstar Chris Jericho at Wrestlemania 25 in April.
Spokesperson Paula Woods wrote in an email that the Oscar-nominated star of The Wrestler "will not be participating in Wrestlemania. He is focusing entirely on his acting career."
The match was highly anticipated, especially since when Rourke first made the announcement he said he was going to throw Jericho "around the ring like a tossed salad."
It would have been a great spectacle. Which is probably why career advisers talked the newly-respected thespian out of it.
