So Mickey Rourke probably the biggest comeback kid of the year with Robert Downey Jr. has been quoted as saying;
"The boys from the WWE called me and asked me to do it…I said, ‘I want to.’ I’m talking with [Wrestler] Rowdy Roddy Piper about it."
regarding Wrestlemania. Here's my question, does this cheapen his comeback or make it better. I'm leaning towards the former but what do I know. It just seems to me that if he shows up to Wrestlemania as Randy 'Ram' Robinson that it will make his character's story less powerful or maybe I'm making a mountain from a mole hill. I'd be interested in hearing what you think though.

I don't think he'll come out as Ram Robinson. But here's the simple truth: The Wrestler has brought added attention to the wrestling business, and having Rourke show up will be a great boost to the show. In the UK, since the came out wrestling ticket sales have tripled. Wrestlemania always has tons of guest stars doing little bits. What will probably happen is that Rourke will be a guest; some wrestler will fuck with him, and maybe Rourke knocks his ass out with a right hand. It'll probably be Santino Marella getting his ass handed to him. I can see it already.
