Trivia

Celebrity Wrestling

Edit
According to an interview he did while appearing on The Sportsmen podcast as a guest in April 2022, D'Lo Brown said, "For me, it was nice to be around guys like Roddy Piper and Joe Legend, and it was good to be around the celebrities on the show. I just know the concept of the show... most of the things we recorded and what made it to TV were two different things. I was proud of the show in the fact that they chose me to be part of it. I was not proud of what was played to the country. I think we could have done a much better job. That wasn't Celebrity Wrestling, it was Celebrity American Gladiators. I think we cheated the British public by building one thing and giving them something else. There was a little more, but it was more that when I got the concept of the show, I kind of pitched a couple ideas that got shot down which I thought would have been a little more appropriate for Celebrity Wrestling. But you know that's water under the bridge and that show faded like a shooting star. One week great ratings, then Doctor Who came out and we went *whistles and points downward*. Doctor Who had been in this hiatus for years and in week two, boom, Doctor Who drops. Doctor Who is the dude in America, we think James Bond, Doctor Who, and Austin Powers represent England."
The show only lasted 4 episodes in its prime time Saturday night slot on ITV. After poor ratings the remaining episodes where shown at random times on Sunday mornings.
