Rev. Al -- Ready to Rumble ... with Illiteracy

Posted Sep 28th 2009 11:35AM by TMZ Staff

Reverend Al Sharpton is set to lay the smack down tonight on WWE Raw -- just don't expect to see him bodyslamming John Cena in the ring.

Reverend Al Sharpton: Click to watch
Yesterday in D.C., the preacher man with the best bouffant in the biz told us the only things he'll be fighting are "illiteracy" and "ignorance" as part of a national tour on education. No word on how "ignorance" looks in spandex.

We're told Sharpton was given a "nominal fee" for travel expenses -- but donated that moolah to the tour.

More Rev. Al Sharpton

14. Why are you giving this crook face time?

15. Good grief, not HIM again! I liked the comment he made at MJ's memorial service to the kids about how it wasn't "...yo Daddy that was strange...". That was funny & maybe gave the kids something to "hold onto" when all the press crap starts filtering down to their little ears(if it hasn't already?!). Other than that, he seems like an "opportunist" to me. I couldn't sleep last night & was watching an episode of 'Law & Order' at about 3AM & lo & behold there's the "good Rev" with a part in it!! Cracked me up! He had one line with about 5 words in it & he was the 'SADDEST' actor I have ever seen. How do you screw up one line??!! lol!
