A former World’s Strongest Man champion makes his wrestling debut.

Professional wrestling has seen its fair share of World’s Strongest Man competitors who have made a name for themselves in the business.

The Daily Star has reported on the latest example of this with former World’s Strongest Man champion Eddie Hall, who made his long-awaited wrestling debut in his hometown of Stoke On Trent.

Hall actually rejected a bumper contract with WWE in 2018 after venturing into acting and boxing. His fight against Thor Bjornsson is noted as the reason for blocking him from signing with the company.
