RAM JAM!


MICKEY ROURKE VS. CHRIS JERICHO SMACKDOWN!
National Enquirer

Despite saying he was backing down, Mickey Rourke clambered into the WrestleMania 25 ring to go mano-a-mano with Chris Jericho!

Rourke, 56, had challenged the grappler back In January flush with the award nabbing success of The Wrestler, saying he'd spar with Jericho, 38, at the WWE anniversary event.

Sitting ringside, Mickey watched as Jericho demolished 3 other pros before taunting and challenging the actor to a final showdown.

To the delight of the assembled masses, Rourke flung his cowboy hat aside and jumped into the ring, landing a punch that sent Jericho reeling. (SEE VIDEO BELOW)

Mickey was then joined in the ring by Ric Flair to savor the moment of triumph as the Wrestle-maniacs went wild.

Overall not a bad Wrestlemania. Undertaker and HBK had a great match and as you just read Mickey Rourke boxed Jericho's ear. Not sure Rourke knows how to fake fight because I think he caught Jericho pretty square. Video here.

Below is a classic clip of John Stossel getting slapped by a wrestler.
