Stephen Amell to Compete in a Tag Team Match at WWE SummerSlam

By Nick Paglino

stephen amellTriple H announced on Raw tonight that actor Stephen Amell will team up with Neville to take on the team of King Barrett and Stardust at WWE SummerSlam.

For those who missed it, Stephen Amell jumped into the ring on Raw and attacked Stardust, prompting Amell to demand a match against Stardust and Barrett at the PPV.

Triple H did not want to make the match, since Amell is an actor and not a WWE superstar, but Amell insisted he would sign whatever legal documents he needed to in order to make the match happen. So Triple H agreed, and the tag team match will take place.

Amell did good tonight during the segments in which he was featured, and my guess is the tag team match was made so Amell’s lack of wrestling experience is not exposed too much. I’d imagine Barrett, Neville and Stardust will be able to carry Amell to an entertaining bout at SummerSlam. Triple H announced Amell as “The Green Arrow”, so he could be donning his costume from the TV show at the PPV.
