WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash recently revealed who he'd cast to play his close friend Shawn Michaels in a film about the famed wrestling group, The Kliq.

The Kliq is an iconic backstage group of pro wrestlers that dominated the business in the 1990s. Consisting of Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and Sean Waltman, the five men became legends in either WCW or WWE.

Speaking on his podcast Kliq This, Nash picked Oscar winner Brad Pitt to play Michaels in a film about the group should it ever happen:

"My choice was Brad Pitt. I mean, you got to know that Shawn can go from zero to a hundred and f*****g 50 miles an hour as far as just going off, you know, and I think that Brad Pitt proved in fight club that he had that kind of range, you know." (from 51:37 to 52:04)

With Nash's links to Hollywood and WWE having a hardcore audience, the potential for a film about The Kliq seems like a tantalizing possibility.With Nash's links to Hollywood and WWE having a hardcore audience, the potential for a film about The Kliq seems like a tantalizing possibility.
