Terry Crews Trains with Former WWE Star For New Adam Sandler Movie, Current WWE Announcer and Hall of Famer Also in the Movie

September 15, 2016

According to Pro Wrestling Sheet, actor Terry Crews has been training with former WWE star Shad Gaspard as the two will be appearing in Adam Sandler’s new movie “Sandy Wexler”, which began shooting earlier this month.

Crews, who will play the role of Bobby Bedtime in the movie, reportedly trained with Gaspard beforehand as he wanted to do all of his own stunts/wrestling in the movie which co-stars Jennifer Hudson. Hudson’s husband and WWE Smackdown announcer David Otunga makes an appearance in the film as well, in addition to WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi, who plays a Yokozuna-like character.

Gaspard’s character will likely be in the film if his character makes the final cut.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
