Manny Pacquiao Becomes a WWE Wrestler

Check out this fun video from the website Funny or Die featuring boxing champion Manny Pacquiao. The video shows Manny training to be a pro wrestler, including developing a gimmick including getting training by Garry Shandling. This is great stuff…unless you take your pro wrestling seriously. Lucky for Manny it’s not 1979.

Hey, if the Floyd Mayweather fight falls through it looks like Manny has another big pay day opportunity. I have to believe that WWE officials are salivating this morning over this video and the WrestleMania angle they can write off of this. Floyd did it, why not Manny?
