Amell appeared several times and even began a rivalry with and major wrestling match against the heel character Stardust, a creation of wrestling legend Cody Rhodes.
He was increasingly frustrated with having to portray the Stardust character and the WWE wouldn’t let him revert back to being Cody Rhodes.
There was talk of more matches between Stardust and Amell, but then in a shocking twist Cody up and quit the WWE.
He has been busy scheduling himself for dozens of indie wrestling appearances and now, a role on Arrow.
