Actor Doug Bradley has been a legend in the world of horror ever since he brought Pinhead to the big screen for the very first time in 1987, subsequently reprising the role in seven sequels. Bradley has long been a staple on the horror convention scene and a frequent star of other horror movies, but it looks like he’s embarking on a whole new career in 2018.
Believe it or not, Bradley has joined the wrestling promotion Blackcraft Wrestling!
From what we gather, Bradley made his debut as “The Preacher” at the “Burning Bridges” show over the weekend, a sort of Pinhead-esque general manager for the promotion.
My buddy Luis Perez tells me, “He’s like the overseer of the promotion. My friend told me he made ring announcements for the first match.”
And yes, “We have such fights to show you” is his catchphrase. 2018 kinda rules.

Not only is Doug Bradley the general manager of a wrestling promotion, he actually used the phrase “We have such fights to show you.”

If my career ended tomorrow and I could never wrestle again, I could die knowing I shared a locker room with the actual actor who played Pinhead. And that’s great.
