The UK Sun has an interview with former WWE Superstar Kurrgan, who has appeared in films like 300 and Sherlock Holmes since leaving his wrestling career behind. During the interview, Kurrgan spoke about his wrestling past and credited WWE for making his acting career possible. "Without wrestling I would not be where I am today," stated Kurrgan. "My wrestling background has certainly helped my acting career. I was used to learning scripts/dialogue and knew how to work in front of cameras. It's a different process, but that previous experience has certainly helped me. Acting is more defined and less over the top than wrestling needs to be.

"My WWE past has given me the chance to pursue acting as a career and so far I've been very lucky. I've been in movies like 300, Sherlock Holmes and many others, with each one my roles get bigger and I get to learn more. I have also got to work with some of the world's biggest A-list actors, I thank the WWE for helping me achieve that."
