WWE fighters are quaking in fear…

Hollywood trailblazer and The Old Guard star Charlize Theron has confessed that she’s fully open to a career change, stating that she’d consider a stint in the WWE. The topic came up while Theron was recently promoting The Old Guard and was being interviewed by the WWE’s very own Kofi Kingston, who made a pretty persuasive case of why she should join the wrestling juggernaut.

The South African star explained how her ballet background to get acquainted with the intense physicality of her Old Guard character, saying “I do have a background in ballet, I was a ballerina for the first part of my life, that was my first career.

“There is an element of being able to play in the genre that reminds me a lot of my first career as a dancer and transforming and being emotional and telling an emotional story but never using your voice, just using your body. That, to me, is very similar, the discipline of ballet reminds me of the discipline of martial arts,” she confessed. To which Kofi replied “I think you might actually have a career or a future, if you wanted it, as a WWE superstar. The fact for you to be able to pick up those moves so naturally, I would love to see you go one-on-one with a Becky Lynch, or like a Sasha Banks. Do you know what I mean?”

And Charlize was all for it, responding “Wow, is this an invite? Yes! When and where? I know we‘re in a crisis situation right now, so it’s not any time soon.But that sounds awesome and I will get my ass kicked. So that would be really entertaining for everybody to watch because I am a mere actor. But that would be so much fun.”

This could very well be one of the most ambitious crossovers in all of sports entertainment, and we’re all for it. Check out some WWE footage below and try to instead imagine Charlize in the ring kicking ass, which we could very well be getting in the near future.
