Episode notes
It’s time for another edition of Wrestling Recast where Tights and Fights takes famous movies and stage shows and reimagines them to feature wrestlers in every role.
This time, it’s the 2003 film Elf. Will Ferrell’s holiday classic celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. But which wrestlers would endear it to an audience of marks? John Cena as Buddy! Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat as Papa Elf! And of course… Mick Foley as Santa Claus.

Julian put over WWE’s (far inferior) version of Elf.

Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford and Julian Burrell
Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.
