If you haven't heard, former Detroit Red Wings enforcer and four-time Stanley Cup champion Darren McCarty is a wrestler now. McCarty has fully embraced the sport, with his Twitter timeline filled with Tweets related to his own matches and several others. He's even gone as far as to be involved in so-called "death matches", where participants use various weapons to inflict as much punishment on their opponents as possible. It usually ends with those involved in the match being left in a bloody mess.

At a recent outing, McCarty did what appeared to be a run-in during a match, and levelled his opponent with a perfect Stunner, the finishing move made famous by Stone Cold Steve Austin back in the 90s and early 2000s. Say what you will about his chosen new past time, but McCarty pulled off this move perfectly, and the wrestler taking it sold it very well.

Fans appear to have a lot of love for McCarty's wrestling career, with a recent sign showing up at a WWE event stating "Roman fears McCarty", a reference to WWE and Universal Champion Roman Reigns.
