WWE Studios recently revealed that they're teaming with Netflix for a number of movies. Well, PW Insider has now revealed that it will be titled The Main Event and shooting is expected to begin later this month and will run through August in Vancouver, British Columbia.
The studio is reportedly looking to develop a number of original movies directed towards family audiences and this one will tell the story of a bullied ten year old boy who dreams of growing up to become a WWE Superstar. However, that happens sooner than expected after he gains super-strength thanks to his breakfast cereal, thereby becoming "The Spaghetti Kid."
Honestly, it sounds pretty terrible and a typical direct to DVD family movie.
It's said that John Cena, Sheamus, The Miz, and Bray Wyatt will all make appearances and there are a number of references to NXT too. We'll keep you updated as we learn more but a partnership between WWE Studios and Netflix could benefit WWE in a big way.
