Okay, okay, okay, but like they're actually onto something with the whole "why would they get in the ring? What if they need it for their magic?" Like, the ring is the spell circle guys, they need to be in the ring to fuel their magic incantations!

Undertaker is definitely a Necromancer. But Muscle Wizard is a thing on the internet.

he can shoot lightning, has a silly hat and a beard. thats a wizard baby.

Undertaker was a Necromancer, Kane was a Warlock that murdered his patron, Gangrel was a GODDAMN VAMPIRE SPELLCASTER

Why not all wizards? Pros: no need to change the name. WWE World Wizarding Entertainment, balanced fights since everyone is a wizard, more cool magic spells, lots of different types of wizards. Cons: None.

I like how they blatantly went full circle on this one.

Y'know, as an aside, I think the brothers have a pretty damn good idea here with this idea of an indie wrestling league where everyone has powers, and they're done with like... both practical and, if possible, digital special effects? Like a combination? People with fire powers, ice powers, etc.

Oh, as soon as they started talking about it, I started thinking about it. I would love to see something like WWE, but it's more like Dragon Ball Z and they use special and practical effects to like, shoot magic spells or balls of energy, maybe fly around the stage, hit each other with chairs, whatever. Maybe just like a wide, oddball cast of wrestlers, each of them with a theme and signature special ability that is insanely over the top. Let's get something like "Mutant League Wrestling" going.

Oh my GOD, I've known of this man since I was a literal child and I JUST NOW realized -- from reading a years-old KZread comment!! -- that his name is a pun.

For anyone else who wants wrestling but also just a show like they are describing might enjoy tiger mask.

Yeah, totally been done. Wrestling is pretty much like rule 34. Kevin Nash played Oz, PLUS he had Kevin Sullivan with him as a bonus wizard sidekick. Sullivan also had a monkey sidekick of his own. If you aren't familiar with this brief era, it really is amazing. Plus there was a dude named Phantasmo or something who was definitely a magician, which is kinda like wizard. And yes, like many other commenters mentioned, Undertaker and his bro Kane for sure had some necromantic moments. There were also a few vampires for a little while I think, and at least one Giant, Giant Gonzalez, and Yetayyy, which is at least supernatural.
