Mickey Rourke’s role in the film The Wrestler brought him a Golden Globe for the role and even an Oscar nomination. Now Rourke is reportedly going to face Chris Jericho at this year’s Wrestlemania.

Mickey appeared on the red carpet for last night�s SAG Awards, and proceeded to tell Extra, �The guys in the wrestling world, from Vince McMahon, to Rowdy Piper, to Rick Flair, they�ve all been supportive/ I almost didn�t do this film, but things worked out. And now Vince wants me to do Wrestlemania in Houston.�

When asked if he would accept the offer, Mikey said, �Chris Jericho, I�m coming after you�re a$$, so you better get in shape brother!� So we can assume that�s a yes? He went on to say, �You bet you�re a$$ I�m gonna do it.�

Strange choice, not like he has anything to prove, but I’m sure he just likes the idea.
