Emmy winner Paul Walter Hauser is set to take the next step in his professional wrestling career. Hauser has declared for the 40-man Battle Riot match on June 1 for the Major League Wrestling promotion card in Atlanta. Hauser is among the wrestlers set to compete in a mashup of a battle royal and street fight at Battle Riot VI on YouTube. Hauser said he would wrestle more if not for a schedule that makes him one of the busiest actors in Hollywood. He’s set to play the late “Saturday Night Live” actor Chris Farley in a biopic, he’s filming a “Naked Gun” reboot with Liam Neeson, he snagged a role in Marvel’s “Fantastic Four,” and stars in the upcoming game show drama “Press Your Luck.”
