Swaggering into the spotlight of On This Very Screen’s sixth episode is the Texas Rattlesnake, himself, Stone Cold Steve Austin, with rated-R action-thriller, The Condemned! Are you a fan of heavy-handed social commentary? Plodding fight scenes? Rob Hoffman from f*cking Suits?! Then you’ve hit the jackpot as the gang is joined by stand-up comedian, Dash Kwiatkowski, to discuss squandered death scenes,  the movie’s unhealthy fascination with sexual assault, and what happens when characters are literally more developed on your Wiki page than in the actual film.  Buckle up, ’cause this one’s an absolute riot!

Did You Know? Bah Gawd, Stone Cold wasn’t originally cast as main protagonist, Jack Conrad, but rather British SAS agent-turned-psychopath, Ewan McStarley. Yeah. The Vinnie Jones character. Christ, almighty, what we would do to hear the “Austin 3:16” quote in an English accent…

Break out the horns and crappy Facebook memes, because John goddamn Cena makes his hopefully triumphant return in episode five of On This Very Screen with 12 Rounds. In his sophomore effort, our favorite would-be marine takes on the role of a New Orleans detective, Danny Fisher, in a race against time to rescue his wife from the clutches of an international arms dealer who may or may not be Littlefinger from Game of Thrones.

Joined by friend of the show and creator of the OTVS theme song, Tyler “Laser Lip” Piersall, the gang tackles married life in the WWE Cinematic Universe,  the power of watching movies in fast forward, and what happens when a protagonist does more collateral damage than his villain ever could.

Did You Know? “12 Rounds” director and hero to Finnish filmmakers everywhere, Renny Harlin, is also the cinematic visionary behind such silver-screen turds as “Deep Blue Sea,” “The Legend of Hercules,” and “Cutthroat Island” — a film infamous for holding a place in the Guinness Book of World Records as one of the biggest financial flops of all time.

In episode four of On This Very Screen, the gang takes on the gargantuan mixed-martial arts comedy, Knucklehead, starring the "Big Show," Paul Wight and Mark Feuerstein from USA's "Royal Pains." Touted as WWE Studios' first comedy, Knucklehead combines the plot of "Nacho Libre" with enough fart jokes to power the city of Los Angeles, and the results are goddamn glorious. How do bears get fighting licenses? Since when did orphans have to audition to be adopted? And what in the blue hell is an "interesting Jew?" All these questions and more are addressed in our funniest episode, yet!

During the heyday of the "Attitude Era" in the '90s, Triple H (Paul Levesque) made his bones chopping at his boner and inciting any and all people to suck it as part of anti-authority faction, D-Generation X. In family comedy The Chaperone, Triple H eschews crotch chops and salami jokes for family reconciliation, Bionic Woman-esque fight scenes, and screen time with a litany of, "Oh, I've seen that person somewhere before" actors including Modern Family's Ariel Winter, Veronica Mars' Enrico Colantoni, and Lisa goddamn Simpson herself, Yeardley Smith. Was this movie as bad as the universally-reviled trailer would have you suggest? Tune in and find out!

On this episode of On This Very Screen, the gang takes on WWE's first horror flick, See No Evil, starring the "big red masturbator," himself, Kane! From rating the deaths of every Breakfast Club juvenile delinquent you can think of to debating proper shower hygiene in a dilapidated hotel, no stone is left unturned with this surprisingly entertaining entry into the catalog. MAY 19th!

The story of The Marine is essentially a story of not getting what you want... and then, not getting the thing you wanted after that. You see, the titular marine role was originally offered to "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, who parted ways with WWE in 2004 before production began. Soon after, the role was awarded to "The Viper," Randy Orton, whose own personal experience with the US Marine Corps (a "bad conduct discharge," specifically) made way for for budding superstar, John Cena, to take the role instead .

A similar story goes for the lead villain character of Rome, which was originally offered to Al Pacino, who refused due to the low salary. Ray Liotta was considered before Terminator 2's Robert Patrick getting the role. Despite getting made in 2004, the film didn't see the light of day until 2006, though thankfully, the military theme was still heavily resonant as the U.S. was still balls-deep in "The Iraq War 2: I Rock Harder."

It's a shame the movie what this movie could have been, when -- in reality -- it's John Cena running around in the woods, trying to find his wife (Nip/Tuck's Kelly Carlson). If only they'd just marketed that, instead.
