WWE’s Cathy Kelley interviewed a number of stars at the red carpet premiere of The Killer’s Game, including pro wrestling legend Dave Bautista and actor Terry Crews on a number of topics. During the interview, Crews revealed that he nearly became a pro wrestler.
Crews said, “[Dave Bautista and Drew McIntyre] stole the movie in a lot of ways. It was incredible. If it were not for a couple of auditions, I probably would have been a professional wrestler, but I just happened to be an actor first. Let me tell you, it’s the same thing. The discipline is the same, the artistry is the same, the creativity is the same. I have nothing but respect for what they do, and when I look at me and Dave as former athletes in this business, we understand how rare it is that we’re here.”
