Stephen Amell first wrestled at WWE SummerSlam back in 2015 when he impressed picky wrestling fans by pulling off some impressive moves and proving that he was more than just an actor playing a wrestler. Since then, he's made a number of appearances on the Indy wrestling scene, working closely with Cody Rhodes (who is the son of the legendary performer Dusty Rhodes) and the Bullet Club.
Last night, Amell had his first singles wrestling match against Indy wrestling icon Christopher Daniels. They've been hyping it up on social media for months now and in an impressive twelve-minute bout, the Arrow star won the respect of fans by delivering a solid performance which may point to him having a career in the squared circle one he's finished playing the Emerald Archer on The CW.
He ultimately ended up losing but as you can see below, Amell still pulled off some pretty crazy moves and the Chicago crowd (which was 10,000 strong) ate it up. As of right now, wrestling appears to be a hobby for the actor but it's feasible that he'll decide to move on from acting to pursue it on a permanent basis somewhere down the line. Did you catch his match at All In? Sound off down below.
