About WWF Wrestling Challenge

  • Released on September 07, 1986
  • Drama

WWF Wrestling Challenge was a professional wrestling television program produced by the World Wrestling Federation. It was syndicated weekly and aired from 1986 to 1995. The show became simply known as WWF Challenge in 1995. The show featured matches, pre-match interviews, and occasionally, summarized weekly events in WWF programming. Matches primarily saw top tier and mid-level talent versus jobbers. At times, there was a "feature" match between main WWF talent. As with other syndicated WWF programming, the show promoted WWF event dates and house shows in local media markets.

Tommy Lister Jr. as Zeus
Tommy Lister Jr.'s performance as the character None in 'Monsters, Inc.' is a memorable one. Despite not having any dialogue, Lister's imposing physical presence and expressive body language bring a sense of intimidation and fear to the character. His towering height and muscular build make him an ideal choice for the role of a monster, and his ability to convey emotions through his facial expressions adds depth to his character. Lister's performance is a testament to his talent as an actor and his ability to make an impactful impression without uttering a single word. See Tommy Lister Jr.'s other roles
