Wrestling Career

After campaigning for an appearance on "WWE Raw," it was reported that Amell would be wrestling Stardust (Cody Rhodes) at the SummerSlam pay-per-view event in August 2015. His first "WWE Raw" appearance took place in May 2015 and featured him having a confrontation with Stardust. In an August 2015 episode, Stardust assaulted Stephen in the audience, then Amell jumped into the ring to attack Stardust but was stopped by security. It was later announced that Stephen would be teaming up with Neville at SummerSlam, and the duo ended up winning a tag team match against Stardust and King Barrett at the event. In late 2015, Amell received a Slammy award for "Celebrity Moment of the Year" for diving onto Stardust during that match. In November 2017, Stephen wrestled for Ring of Honor at Survival of the Fittest, winning a five-on-four tag team match with Kenny Omega, Cody Rhodes, and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson). In September 2018, he competed in his first singles match, losing to Christopher Daniels at All In. In February 2020, Amell appeared at All Elite Wrestling's Revolution, accompanying Cody Rhodes during his entrance.

Personal Life

Stephen was married to Carolyn Lawrence from late 2007 to 2010. On Christmas Day in 2012, he wed actress / model Cassandra Jean in the Caribbean in a private ceremony, then they had another ceremony in New Orleans in May 2013. The couple welcomed daughter Maverick on October 15, 2013, and son Bowen on May 13, 2022. Amell has hosted several fundraising campaigns on Represent.com. In 2014, he raised close to $1 million for the charitable organization Fuck Cancer after selling more than 60,000 t-shirts in support of the charity. In 2015, Stephen launched a Represent.com campaign featuring the word "Sinceriously" (a word he made up) to raise funds for the mental health organizations Stand For the Silent and Paws and Stripes. Later that year, he used a "WWE Raw" appearance to raise $300,000 for Emily's House, a Toronto children's hospice.

During the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020, Amell received criticism after he said, "Racism is a systemic problem, but I'm not as familiar with it just because I haven't seen it in action, personally. Obviously, I see the video of George Floyd being murdered by white police officers, I remember the Trayvon Martin case, and all the things that have been happening. Although most of that, for me personally, has been overshadowed by gun violence. That's the big thing that's difficult for me to wrap my head around, moving to the States, simply because that doesn't happen in Canada. At all. Ever." In 2021, he was asked to leave a Delta flight after he got into an argument with his wife before takeoff. Amell tweeted about the incident, writing, "My wife and I got into an argument Monday afternoon on a Delta flight from Austin to LA. I was asked to lower my voice and I did. Approximately 10 minutes later I was asked to leave the flight. And I did so immediately. I was not forcibly removed."

Awards and Nominations

Amell has been nominated for 10 Teen Choice Awards, winning for Choice TV Actor: Action for "Arrow" in 2019. In 2007, he won a Gemini Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Guest Role Dramatic Series for "ReGenesis," and in 2007 and 2008, he shared nominations for Best Ensemble Performance in Comedy Program or Series with his "Rent-a-Goalie" co-stars. Stephen has earned People's Choice Award nominations for Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy TV Actor (2014) and Favorite Social Media Celebrity (2017), and he received an MTV Movie + TV Award nomination for Best Hero for "Arrow" in 2017. He earned five IGN Summer Movie Award nominations for Best TV Hero for "Arrow," winning in 2014, and he was named Male Star of Tomorrow at 2016 CinemaCon.
