The Boston Herald covered WWE's Matt Bloom (Tensai/Albert/A-Train) starring in the new romantic-comedy movie, "The Dog Wedding," which premiered Monday in Boston.

Bloom noted that he had no acting experience prior to taking the lead role in a movie written by one of his close friends.

“In the ring, I had to be larger than life, but that doesn’t work on camera," Bloom said. "I did that in the first scene and when I watched it back I got nauseous. Thank God the director was used to working with people without an acting background, and somehow he pulled something out of me that I didn’t know I had in me."

Bloom also talked about his approach to being the head trainer of the Performance Center - he follows the lead of the head coach of the New England Patriots.

“Bill Belichick is incredible, and I try to mimic his style,” he said. “We come in, put in the hard work, we’re no-nonsense, and we get things done. I pride myself on that," Bloom said.
