WWE on-air personality and interviewer Cathy Kelley noted that; Brad Pitt's "Ad Astra" co-star Liv Tyler often attends WWE shows with her children, whenever the promotion puts forth events in her town.
On that note, Kelley asked him whether he'd attend a WWE event, in response to which Pitt explained that he's surely open to the idea.
Furthermore, when Kelley probed as to whether he'd consider participating in a WWE event as a performer, Pitt jested that it'd be a disaster if he did that -- adding that he'd like to attend WWE events as a spectator, not a performer. Pitt stated --
"Oh, you're talking about actually getting in and fighting? Hell no...No. I'll come...I'll be a participant, no? I'll spectate on that. Can you imagine? What a disaster. Oh, my God!"
