Stephen Amell Suits Up As The ARROW To Respond To WWE's "Vigilante" Sting
Stephen Amell is a big WWE fan, but he has taken to Facebook on behalf of Starling City's original vigilante to reveal his mock outrage with WCW legend Sting's use of that moniker upon his recent debut on Raw. Hit the jump to check out the fully suited up actor's reaction...
Arrow star Stephen Amell has expressed his interest in hosting Raw a number of times now, and yet the WWE keeps calling up a bunch a D-List losers instead of arguably the most popular superhero on TV. In a brief video posted to the actor's Facebook account, it appears as if the Starling City vigilant has some beef with Sting stealing his nickname (remember, "The Vigilante" was used for quite some time before being replaced by "The Arrow"). For those of you who haven't watched in a while, WCW's Sting has indeed made his WWE debut and looks set to wrestle - in a t-shirt because he's, you know, old - at this year's WrestleMania. Honestly? Triple H vs. The Arrow sounds a lot more like it. Check out the video below, and then share your thoughts in the usual place.
