Netflix announced this week that they are teaming up with the WWE to make a family film called The Main Event starring many stars of the WWE including WWE Champion Kofi Kingston, The Miz, and Sheamus alongside Seth Carr (Black Panther), Tichina Arnold (The Neighborhood), Ken Marino (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), and Adam Pally (The Mindy Project).

The Wrap reports the following synopsis for the film: "After discovering a magical mask, an 11-year-old aspiring wrestler enters a competition to become the next WWE superstar."

This sounds like it will draw a crowd of all the WWE fans young and old. There are so many young fans that it’s nice this film will be geared toward them. Are you a fan of wrestling? What do you think of this premise?

The Main Event is set to hit Netflix sometime in 2020.
