Scooby-Doo is teaming up with the gang from the WWE in a new animated movie. Yep, really!
Deadline reported the surprising news, revealing Warner Bros. and WWE Studios will coproduce this new Scooby-Doo film, which will be released via Blu-ray, DVD, VOD and digital download by Warner Bros. Velma, meet AJ. AJ, meet Velma.
The story will involve Scooby and his pals investigating a mystery at, wait for it, WrestleMania. The WWE’s Triple H, John Cena, Kane, The Miz, Brodus Clay, Santino Marella, Sin Cara, AJ Lee and Vince McMahon are all voicing animated versions of themselves in the film.
WWE Studios President Michael Luisi tells Deadline the WWE will “use its considerable resources to promote the effort,” so you can bet there are some Scooby-powered touts coming! While WWE and Scooby-Doo meeting is a first, it’s worth noting that this won’t be the first time WWE wrestlers have been animated (see above), nor the first time Scooby-Doo has had some unusual team-ups, having already met the likes of the Three Stooges, the Addams Family and the Harlem Globetrotters… Oh, and a certain Dark Knight, both in the 1970s and more recently.
We've got the full plot description from the press release now, which you can read below.
"When Shaggy and Scooby win tickets to WrestleMania, the entire gang travels in the Mystery Machine to WWE City to attend the epic event. However, when a mysterious ghostly bear appears and threatens to ruin the show, Scooby, Shaggy, Velma, Daphne and Fred work with WWE Superstars to solve the case."
