Wardlow… Wardog… Wardlobo?
During a recent interview with “Doc” Chris Mueller of Bleacher Report, AEW star Wardlow spoke about the potential for him to jump into acting in the future. Wardlow is a noted Superman and comic book fan, and he says he’d love to follow in the footsteps of John Cena, Dave Bautista and others.
“Yeah, I think I absolutely would [consider acting],” he said. “That’s something I think that’s always been in the back of my head. You see what John Cena, The Rock and Batista are doing, and it’s phenomenal. Then I gotta say, to be a part of the Marvel Universe or the DC Universe. Oh my God, that would be a dream come true. That’d be an honor. I’d love to do that one day if the opportunity came up.”
“Honestly, my third choice would have been Shazam. But they just recently did that and I think they’re doing another one. But I would have loved to portray Shazam. I’m just a kid at heart. I feel like it would be so easy to portray that on screen. Like, he’s this big monster, but he’s really just a kid with a big imagination. When I look at the villain side of things, I most definitely would love to play Lobo, and I used to have a Harley I loved riding. I love bikes, love riding. My Harley Davidson was my baby. And I enjoy a cigar here and there, so I feel like with Lobo,” he noted, “I would really be able to be super-in-tune with that character. Let’s get on it. Let’s get a live-action Lobo going.”
Wardlow will face off with MJF at AEW Double Or Nothing on Sunday, May 29. He also recently spoke about feeling like his character is a mix of several notable characters from the silver screen. Read more about how he views the Wardlow character (and how he became MJF’s bodyguard) at this link.
