Littler, from Runcorn, became an overnight sensation as the tournament's youngest ever finalist, despite finishing second behind Alexandra Palace's Luke Humphreys.

The darts star's habit of eating a kebab after every match has already earned him a lifetime supply of kebab meat from Iceland, and now WWE is taking notice.

On his way to the final, Littler announced that he had chosen Pitbull's hit song Greenlight as his exit song following his participation at WrestleMania 33 in 2017.
