The second season of Young Rock will reportedly feature depictions of several Attitude Era WWE stars. PWInsider reports that the show, which is currently in the middle of production on the season season, is casting actors to play Triple H, Harvey Whippleman, The Undertaker, and the Brooklyn Brawler to feature in storylines involving Rock’s rookie year in WWE.

Whippleman, aka Downtown Bruno Lauer, made a cameo appearance as himself in the first season, but the second season portrayal will be fictionalized and played by another actor.

As previously reported, the show has been casting for a number of 1980s roles including Nikolai Volkoff and Bam Bam Bigelow, the latter for a Memphis Wrestling-era episode where he would play his Crusher Yurkov gimmick.

The new season will premiere on March 15th on NBC, with a Holiday special episode airing on December 5th.
