The actor has gone on record and confessed multiple times that he is a fan of doing comedy routines in wrestling. Culkin once appeared for a wrestling show wearing the iconic Roddy Piper’s ‘Hotrod’ shirt with bunny ears on his head.

However, he also admitted that the company these days is producing the same content night after night. Even though the company fired a plethora of superstars in the last couple of years, the quality of matches has not improved.

He admitted this repetitive pattern is something that compels even hardcore fans to change their channels. Maybe, if WWE hires Culkin at some point in the future, the WWE Universe might see a wave of change in the product. What’s your take on it?
