Eminem to W.W.E.?

In what has to be one of the craziest rumors I have heard in – well, at least a week – rapper Eminem is said to be training vigorously for a roster spot in the W.W.E. Although, he’s still about three or four months away from his debut, the Grammy-award winner is said to be very serious about a wrestling career and is taking lessons in the fine arts of grappling.

This is all according to a Website called mediatakeout.com which backs up its report with a source from inside Marshall “Eminem” Mathers’ inner circle. There’s been a great deal of speculation recently that the W.W.E. will sign a celebrity with a checkered past, such as Britney Spears or former newscaster Alycia Lane.

My question is, will Eminem pay his dues and go down to work in the W.W.E.’s developmental league in Florida? John Cena and Randy Orton honed their craft in Ohio Valley Wrestling (O.V.W.), so why should Em be any different?

This is one of those rumors that I hope was started by a fool and therefore not true!

hah shit dude, why you hope it's not true? i think it's just a rumor myself but damn it'd be cool if it wasn't. It would increase the popularity of wwe and eminem. Making good business for both.

Keith,
I just don't like to see celebs getting involved in wrestling. I do think that Eminem would probably take it pretty seriously, but I'd rather see him make music. Thanks for the comment!

lol He's got a new album comming out this year sometime called King Mathers. If he joined wwe that album would be highly promoted. Be interesting to see what's gonna be on it. It's been like 3 years or more since he's came out with a album.

I read this morning that Eminem has said he isn't coming to the W.W.E. But that doesn't necessarily mean it won't happen either.
