TheWrap

Former Pittsburgh Steeler Harrison, who was responsible for one of the greatest plays in Super Bowl history, is the latest NFL star to take up acting. He'll star in the pro-wrestling drama as "Apocalypse," a been-around-the-block journeyman wrestler who’s been at it for decades and has no illusions of fame or glory." Joining him is The Wire, True Blood and The Deuce alum Chris Bauer, who will play “Wild Bill Hancock,” a larger-than-life former wrestling star who is now a high-level pro wrestling scout. Also cast is The O.G. and Black-ish alum Allen Maldonado, who plays wrestler "Rooster Robin."
