    Apparently, Mickey Rourke, the actor who recently portrayed Randy "The Ram" Robinson in the film The Wrestler has some plans to Attend Wrestlemania 25 this April, and called out WWE Superstar Chris Jericho on the red carpet at the SAG awards. Jericho responded on WWE RAW the following monday, saying "he had no respect for the actor and playing a wrestler in a movie is nothing like being one in real life." Does this mean a Rourke/Jericho match at WM 25?

    Rourke says no, Jericho says yes.

    To make the fued worse, Jericho apperead with Rourke on Larry King Live, where Jericho said "
    I think he did make a mistake on the red carpet at the SAG awards where he mentioned WrestleMania and called me out because if he got his wish and had a confrontation with me at WrestleMania, I think the ending of the Jericho-Rourke movie would not turn out very well for Mr. Rourke as it did for 'The Wrestler.'"

    When asked about the fight, Rourke responded with ""If it was up to me, no, it's not my world. I was a professional fighter. Would I box him in a boxing ring or a bare knuckle match, yeah. Wrestling, that's his world. That's what this man does."

    Jericho replied
    "Very interesting, Mr. Rourke. You should have thought before your spoke. Be careful what you wish for, it may come true."
