It’s being reported that WWE has a local casting agency in San Francisco working to cast Russian soldiers and scarecrows at WrestleMania 31. The Russian soldiers obviously are for Rusev and the scarecrows are for Sting or Bray Wyatt, but likely for Sting.
The casting agency is booking both roles and they’re using the same extras for both roles as a way to save money. They’re looking for males between 24 and 33 with no facial hair. The agency is paying the extras $1,100 each total for 3 days.
The extras must be available to train on March 27th and 28th, then perform at WrestleMania on March 29th. The first day will consist of costume fitting and a walk-through for 4 hours. They will do a late night rehearsal after the Hall of Fame ceremony on Saturday from 11pm – 3am. They will be required to be at Levi’s Stadium all day and evening on Sunday at WrestleMania.
