Professional wrestling and the comic book world is about to collide.
The match between WWE's Stardust and Stephen Amell is on after a tension-filled meeting last week in a WWE event.
In front of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, the "Arrow" actor made it known to the world that he will fight Stardust in a tag team match wherein he will be paired with Neville while Stardust will go in the ring with King Barrett.

Stardust-Stephen Amell feud is receiving a lot of attention lately but how did it start? Amell is vocal about his admiration of professional wresting. He even attends matches whenever he can.
Comicbook.com caught up with Stardust ahead of their WWE match and there he explained why he is chasing Stephen Amell. He even refers to Amell as if he does not know his real name.
"Ah, 'Stephen Amell'! That's what he'll have you believe. Take a look at 'Mr. Amell's' Facebook. Look at the amounts of fandom, the Olicity madness, that goes on his Facebook...his Twitter just now hitting a million followers. This kid, this boy, is on the rise! People love him, and in the process of my WWE exclusive search for a hero, I thought...why, why not look outside? Because as you've heard, as I told Michael Cole recently in our hard-hitting sit-down WWE.com exclusive interview, this boy is not named Stephen Amell. That's a mask! That's a...a 'front,' as the kids are saying. His name is Oliver Queen. Son of Moira Queen, second-generation Queen man running Starling City, the Emerald Archer, the Green Arrow."
Stardust went on to say that he does not believe Stephen Amell's good-guy persona and he is going to "eat his heart"when they face off.
"If I didn't believe it, we wouldn't be talking right now! I have seen him. Hell, I've felt him when he punched me right in the face this past Monday after he jumped me from behind in a very giggle-esque maneuver. I know who, as you like to call him, Canadian hunk actor, Stephen Amell really is, and at SummerSlam, that's who I want," Stardust told Comickbook.com.
WWE's Stardust-Stephen Amell match will go down in a few weeks.
