Wayne Brady got a little bit more than he bargained for thanks to his ringside seat at All Elite Wrestling’ Revolution pay-per-view.
Brady, 53, was front row for the big pro wrestling show at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena on Sunday, March 15, when wrestler Shane Taylor got in his face.
The comedian wanted no part of Taylor’s antics, but that changed when Taylor ripped Brady’s hat off of his head and threw it to the ground.
Brady laughed, took off his glasses and wound up for a slap, clocking Taylor with his right hand across the wrestler’s face.
Wayne Brady is proud of who he is. The Let’s Make a Deal game show host came out as pansexual in August 2023, and has since opened up about being able to finally live his life authentically. “I don’t give a f–k anymore,” Brady exclusively told Us Weekly at the Advocate + Out Pride cover […]
“Now what? Now what?” Brady asked him.
Taylor did not take kindly to the Whose Line Is It Anyway? star getting physical, so he pulled him over the barrier and tossed him to the ground.
Viral social media star The Rizzler was also ringside, attempting to confront Taylor, but the 9-year-old also got shoved to the ground for his efforts.
That’s when Big Justice, one half of social media duo the Costco Guys, hit Taylor with a spear.
Big Justice’s father, Big Boom A.J., and his tag team partner, Q.T. Marshall, used all of the commotion to pick up a pinfall and defeat Capt. Shawn Dean and Carlie Bravo, known as The Infantry.
After the win, Brady made his way into the ring to celebrate with the victorious crew.
“I just saw a wrong that was happening and I felt that I needed to address it,” Brady said in a backstage interview after the match.
He added “It just shows you. Be prepared to be thrown if you slap somebody in the face. But then we came out on top in the end.”
Who is that? It’s the question asked by panelists on The Masked Singer multiple times in each episode, and the answer is: everybody. Since the show debuted in January 2019, the celebrity contestants have included Joey Fatone, Michelle Williams, Tori Spelling, Mickey Rourke, Patti LaBelle, Kelly Osbourne, Bret Michaels, Lil Wayne, Jordyn Woods, Wendy Williams, […]
All Elite Wrestling president and CEO Tony Khan discussed Brady’s surprise appearance during a post-show press conference.
“You want to see Wayne Brady choke a guy? That’s great. I would like to see that, too,” Khan joked, a reference to Brady’s infamous sketch on Chappelle’s Show in which he asked, “Is Wayne Brady going to have to choke a bitch?”
Khan added, “If he wants to get in there and get after it, I think that’s great … I didn’t know Wayne liked to get wet. He likes to get after it. I’d love to get Wayne in the ring.”
Brady has been a wrestling fan for decades, even guest hosting an episode of WWE’s Raw back in June 2010.
