WWE has recruited stars from all corners of entertainment, but one name that the company pursued might surprise fans: Marc Summers.

During a recent reunion special , the former Double Dare host revealed that WWE tried to hire him at the height of his popularity. A lackluster financial offer, however, prompted him to turn it down.

“We did Super Slop-a-Mania 1. Gorilla Monsoon against Bobby ‘The Brain’ Heenan,” Summers said, recalling his favorite Double Dare episode. “Wrestling could not have been bigger. In fact, WWE, back in the day, wanted to hire me away from Nickelodeon and put me on as announcer on their show, but they offered me zero money, so I wasn’t going to do it.”
