The New York Times recently did an interview with the President of WWe Studios, Michael Luisi. During the interview, it was alluded to that the title role in the upcoming reboot of the Leprechaun franchise would be filled by none other than WWE Dylan Postl, aka Hornswoggle.
Postl has been a part of the WWE since 2007 and has portrayed a villainous Leprechaun who lives under the ring, as well as a mute little person for comic relief during his tenure as an in-ring performer. He is still performing and will most notably be appearing at WrestleMania on April 1st.
While this has been highly suspected since the announcement, this is the first instance where any validity has been given to the rumors. Does this make sense to you? Should WWE cash in with one of their own stars or try and find a bigger, more well known name? Sound off below!
